Technix 2012 took place 1/21/2012

ATRA’s annual Technical Information Exchange (nicknamed Technix) took place at the University of Maryland, Center for Advanced Transportation Technology. This friendly and informal show & tell consisted of presentations, technical Q&A and ATRA brainstorming and fellowship. The past two years the meeting has been hosted at the University of Maryland Center for Advanced Transit Technology (ATRA), located near the DC beltway and near a convenient Metro stop. Despite a brief wintry weather threat, about 20 ATRA members gathered for a day of discussion. Highlights included an insightful discussion on advanced transit activism by Kjensmo Walker, update on a scale model robocar by Robert Johnson, and discussions concerning the emerging ATRA Industrial Group – among others.
