Robotics Academy

The academy-level robotics program takes it to the next level for the next generation of engineers, designers and gear heads with real-world applications of science, technology, engineering and math.

Hands-on sessions in robot chassis design and building algorithms, remote-control design and operation, and aerial drone operations make for an exciting adventure. Trainees focus on teamwork as they learn what it’s like to engineer and design robots on land, in the air and underwater with state-of-the-art materials. The week culminates with trainees competing to complete tasks on a Challenge Table using robots they spent the week building, programming and testing.

Activities*

  • Program robots to interact with the world using a variety of sensors and motors
  • Hands-on sessions in robot chassis design and building algorithms, remote-control design and operation and aerial operations make for an exciting adventure.
  • Master managing wireless signals in order to control and pilot robots on the Challenge Table
  • Choose from optional lessons such as building robotic attachments, programming with sensors and data functions, or using both tactile and touchless Human Interface Devices
  • Use the binary number system and basic logic functions to understand how machines “think”
  • Design, build and pilot underwater robots
  • Train in cutting-edge, custom-designed Unmanned Aerial Systems training simulation and fly quadcopters
