backstory: I was a Matlab-on-Windows machine vision developer and I wanted to code Python and Bash on hardware, then came the cloud and TensorFlow. At the end of this post, there is a link to download training data collected by blue1. There is also a link to download a model…

if you’ve known me for the past 3–4 years you know that I’m working on blue — blue is a cloud-connected rover that applies a tensorflow semantic segmentation deep learning convolutional neural network on images that it receives from its camera to maneuver safely in its environment.
