Our Robotics Challenge program will give students a challenging introduction to robotics as they learn to build, program and operate a LEGO Mindstorms robot with different sensors. Each student will work through a series of exercises to experience solving elemental robotics tasks. The class has optional topics to challenge experienced students. On the final day of class, we'll engage in some friendly competition around a Sumo Ring. Students will be challenged to build a defense system for their robot that can push other Lego robots out of the Sumo ring using different sensors.
