Space Camp® Robotics trainees learn their ideas can become a reality as they use robotic technologies to create engineering solutions for real-world problems.
Trainees work as a team to build and test their own designs in air, land and sea challenges. The week culminates with spirited contests as trainees test the robots they spent the week building, programming and testing. The curriculum includes an educational movie or show in either the INTUITIVE® Planetarium or National Geographic Theater.
Activities
- Learn engineering, programming and wireless control concepts using VEX Robotics technology.
- Put these concepts to the test as you design, build, program and test land-based robots to compete on the Challenge Table.
- Use series circuits to build your own LED flashlight that you can take home.
- Create and pilot underwater robots.
- Train in the art of flying Unmanned Aerial Systems using RealFlight drone simulations.
