Robots. We've heard about them, we've seen them, and now we can build them at school! Robotics is a great class for students interested in areas such as programming, electronics, manufacturing, pneumatics, and mechanical systems. Students will learn how to build, program and test out their robots in various situations. If you are interested in participating in the FIRST Robotics Team or in a career in automated manufacturing then consider joining this class.
| Check out what the Robotics class was working on in the first semester of 2003! |
This
is a Boe Bot from Parallax. Students are
taught how to assemble and program these robots to put them through various
tests of obstacle courses.
The Boe Bots come in a complete kit
which the students will assemble their Bot and work
through problems as directed in the activity book.
Recently
a robot was donated by ABB for the Robotics class. The students have learned
how to control and program this amazing machine. Click on the image for the
