First Year at New Location Photos: Share on Facebook Twitter. Send them to our free, eight-week club to introduce them to the world of robotics engineering and programming!

There will always be a way to participate, whether you come for one day or for the whole summer. Summer Camp is on Mondays from 4p-5p.

For the safety and happiness of everyone, each child must have an accompanying guardian present. This is a cooperative engineering exercise where kids will need to work together as a team to navigate through concepts that involve physics, gear ratios, motor torque, spatial recognition, programming logic, and autonomous robotics… and of course building robots to battle each other!

Monday June 6th, 13th, 20th, 27th Introduction and Building. Kids will form two teams to build their robot using Lego parts, motors, and a variety of sensors. Additionally, we encourage the kids to include any non-Lego parts to their robots that their creativity can come up with within reason.

More About the Robot Sumo Battle In a robot Sumo match, two robots start inside a ring marked with a border of a contrasting color and try to be the first one to push the other robot outside the ring without accidentally driving outside the ring themselves. There are a large variety of mechanical designs and programs that could be used, but most robots start with a light sensor to detect the border of the ring. Can your robot push all of the objects outside of the ring before accidentally driving outside the ring itself?

About Programming Robots These are not remote controlled robots! They are programmed to interact with the environment using several different kinds of sensors and driven by a version of LabView programming software custom designed for use with the NXT kits. The LabView programming software is a visual approach to real machine code language that kids can understand.

The concepts learned from working with the software will be an excellent introduction the programming logic that more advanced coding is based on. The programming process can get a little complex but many kids should be able to handle it if they desire.

We will encourage everyone to learn at least a little bit of the programming side of things and anyone who chooses to take a serious interest in programming will be fully included in it. However, if they would rather focus on the building and dictate what they want their robots to do, the programming can be done by our coaches.

The parts used to build the robots are Lego and can be integrated with the simple Lego kits that most kids are already familiar with. A Sound sensor allows for sounds to trigger programmed commands.

A Light sensor can be used to detect light levels and some colors to help the robot see even more. A Touch sensor on which Lego or other parts can be attached to create a bumper trigger. Email Format html text. Store Hours Sun Noon

Robot-sumo , or pepe-sumo, is a sport in which two robots attempt to push each other out of a circle in a similar fashion to the sport of sumo. The robots used in this competition are called sumobots. The engineering challenges are for the robot to find its opponent usually accomplished with infrared or ultra-sonic sensors and to push it out of the flat arena. A robot should also avoid leaving the arena, usually by means of a sensor that detects the edge. The most common "weapon" used in a sumobot competition is an angled blade at the front of the robot, usually tilted at about a degree angle towards the back of the robot.

This blade has an adjustable height for different tactics. The robots usually have to fit in a one-foot cube. Classes are further divided into remote-controlled and autonomous robots. Also, there might be a tethered category varies. Sumo robots are built from scratch, from kits or from Lego components, particularly the Lego Mindstorms sets.

Some sumo bots are built with only wood and motors for more of a challenge. The usual size for the wood is 12" by 12". It makes it hard to construct a really large robot with this piece of wood.
