Creative Robotics

This is a 30-hour project in which participants learn basic electronics in a fun and engaging way. Participants learn:

• Safety procedures
• How to use tools
• How to work in teams to design robots out of everyday materials

In the first year, participants are introduced to the use of hand tools, including a screwdriver, a utility knife, a tape measure, etc. In Creative Robotics, students learn about basic electronics, wiring, sensors and motors, as well as operation of the Hummingbird microcontroller using Scratch programming language.
