Course Description
Do you love to play around with recycled materials or craft supplies to unleash your creativity? Did you know you could also build robots with the same creative power and the same materials? This hands-on course combines innovation, craftsmanship, and technology to inspire your inner inventor. Learn how to build your own personally meaningful robot out of ordinary craft or recycled materials. Then use text-based programming languages such as JavaScript and Python to breathe life into your robot creation. Tap into your imagination as a creative engineer to design, build, and program interactive robotic displays, models that illustrate your favorite myth, or a robotic creature that responds to external stimuli for a robotic zoo.
