The Discovery Lab hosted a Quadrucopter Workshop and it was a success. We registered a small number of 10 students and each were given a kit and lectures throughout the 3 days the event lasted, which concluded in successfully testing their quad-copters. The students learned many aspects of robotics through this event all the way from hardware to software to aerodynamics and everything in between. It was truly an amazing experience for both participants and tutors.
On Tuesday July 15, we had a visit at the Discovery Lab of 30 students with the American Heritage for a Day Camp at FIU. We were able to show them out work at the Discovery Lab which included projects such as the Smart Mannequin, Quadrucopters, Prosthetic Limbs, and the Telebot. They students had a good opportunity to see first hand some of the project they can build in the field of Computer Science and Engineering. It was a great learning opportunity.
On Tuesday July 22, we had a visit at the Discovery Lab of 30 female students with the Girls that Code group at FIU. We were able to show them out work at the Discovery Lab which included projects such as the Smart Mannequin, Quadrucopters, Prosthetic Limbs, and the Telebot. They students had a good opportunity to see first hand some of the project they can build in the field of Computer Science and Engineering hopefully attracting them towards these fields. It was a great learning opportunity.
