mission that will stagger your human minds! Be a part of a robotics
team to design, build and program a Lego robot to "terraform" planets
of the deep space frontier through the outer reaches of the Criterion
Belt. Your mission is to make these planets habitable so colonies
of space explorers can live there. This is NIDA's advanced robotics
course using LEGO Mindstorms. However, you do not need programming
experience to attend this camp.
TETRIX
ROBOT CHALLENGE July 19 - 23 5 day camp, 9:00
- 3:00 Grades 6-12 In this camp we will build real metal robots
using the Tetrix construction system. Participants will program
their robots and use remote controls to conquer this year’s
challenge. Four robots at a time will enter the competition
ring to see
which one can score the most points. Emphasis will be on both
building and programming robots using specialized programming
language. No previous robot experience needed, just a desire
to learn |
