Building robots teaches how mechanical systems and code work together, revealing how gears create power, sensors gather information, and programming controls exactly how machines behave.<\/p><p>Adventurers will design and build their own working robots that move, navigate, and respond to instructions. Students learn to program robot behaviors while engineering mechanical systems that make their creations stronger, faster, or more capable through testing and improvement. Their ProjectFUN robot becomes something they can take home and keep building on, proving they can create machines that can tackle real-world problems.<\/p><p><em>Projects in this workshop may include: Creating an all-terrain vehicle or creating a conveyor belt system.<\/em><\/p>\n<ul><li><h4>A Few of the Topics Covered in this Course<\/h4><ul><li>The roles of software and hardware in robotics<\/li><li>Engineering concepts like torque and speed<\/li><li>The importance of iteration in robotics<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><h4>Technologies Used in this Course<\/h4><ul><li>Visual scripting language<\/li><li>Robotics: Smart Machines kit by Thames &amp; Kosmos<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><h4>Faculty and Guests<\/h4><ul><li>This workshop's curriculum has been reviewed by a <a href=\"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/about\/our-team\/faculty-advisors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">panel of college-level faculty<\/a> from DigiPen Institute of Technology to ensure its relevance and appropriateness for students aged 9\u201313.<\/li><li>As with every Open World workshop, a <a href=\"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/about\/our-team\/industry-guests\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">special visit by an industry guest<\/a> has been arranged to help students see the connection between their workshop and real-world careers.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul>\n<ul><li>The roles of software and hardware in robotics<\/li><li>Engineering concepts like torque and speed<\/li><li>The importance of iteration in robotics<\/li><\/ul>\n<ul><li>Visual scripting language<\/li><li>Robotics: Smart Machines kit by Thames &amp; Kosmos<\/li><\/ul>\n<ul><li>This workshop's curriculum has been reviewed by a <a href=\"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/about\/our-team\/faculty-advisors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">panel of college-level faculty<\/a> from DigiPen Institute of Technology to ensure its relevance and appropriateness for students aged 9\u201313.<\/li><li>As with every Open World workshop, a <a href=\"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/about\/our-team\/industry-guests\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">special visit by an industry guest<\/a> has been arranged to help students see the connection between their workshop and real-world careers.<\/li><\/ul>","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/workshop\/5643","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/workshop"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/workshop"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9459"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5643"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"agegroup","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/agegroup?post=5643"},{"taxonomy":"locations","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/locations?post=5643"},{"taxonomy":"sessions","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sessions?post=5643"},{"taxonomy":"subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject?post=5643"},{"taxonomy":"event","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event?post=5643"},{"taxonomy":"technology","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/yourplanbproductions.com\/openworld\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/technology?post=5643"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
