Robotics Jumpstart Posted

On Sunday, September 13th, we’ll have our first “community workshop”…

Robotics are an amazing way to introduce people, especially young people, to hands-on science and engineering. Robotics Jumpstart is the first of our community workshops: a one-day event where we can get together and goof around with some fun technology. We’ll use Lego Mindstorms NXT kits along with some activities created by Lego, Carnagie Melon, and our own. Attendees will learn to build simple robots, write computer programs to control the robot functionality through multiple input sensors, and make it all work.

There are only spots for 15 pairs of attendees. Adult/young-person pairs are strongly encouraged. If you’d like to bring your own NXT kit let me know and I will increase the number of available tickets. Registration is just $30/pair to cover costs. Let me know if you have any questions!
