Here’s the full class description of my class
BeetleBots Zooming Everywhere!
This workshop is best for 9-15 year olds.
In just two hours we’ll take some motors and switches and turn them into living, scampering, skittering BeetleBots! It’s a robot that zooms around your kitchen floor in the cutest/creepiest(?) way you’ve ever seen!
When you’re done, you’ll know how to build more of these little guys (did I just say Holiday Project with family?)
This relatively easy robot project gives great food for thought on the nature of artificial intelligence, robotic mobility and… nah, they’re just awesome to play with!
If you don’t have these skills already, you’ll learn how to use a soldering iron and hot glue gun. But the magic isn’t in the legerdemain, it’s in how we put these little guys together and make them go!
