Imagine It, Engineer It, Make It!
At our Lego Robotics camp, students will learn a variety of real world engineering concepts that are simplified through the use of LEGO. Some of the topics covered include rack and pinion steering, differentials, building strong, and more. By utilizing the simplicity of LEGO and the motorized components of LEGO Power Functions, students will be able to build complicated robots without having and previous technical knowledge.
What Students Learn:
- The importance of major engineering concepts, such as gear rations, rack and pinion, differentials
- The difference between two wheel drive versus four wheel drive
- How to create strong robots using Lego Power Functions
What Students Create:
- Realistic cars that use rack and pinion steering
- Robust drivetrain that uses a differential
- "Sumo" robots
- Battle Bot robots to compete in a friendly tournament
