The campers played several games that involved sumo robotics competitions. The leadership team had created leaders who specialized in these exciting sumo battles. Each team would take a quadrant and try to knock the other team out of the specialized area. The teams would build their robots with some exciting mechanisms that could flip or overturn their opponent's creation. The camp also had autonomous events which required that teams fulfilled special missions prescribed by the leadership committees.

​Campers will conduct programming investigations or enter challenges that allow robots to compete against others. The competitions will test the creativity of the young engineers as they match their distinctive robotic designs.

<![CDATA[SOCCER ROBOTS]]>Fri, 05 Jan 2018 00:35:26 GMThttp://trevonbranch.com/blog/soccer-robotsThe campers also create “SoccerBots” that focus on playing soccer. These SoccerBots use a soccer field replica table to play a match using goals and miniaturized ball. Teams control their bots with remote control pads.

<![CDATA[SUMO]]>Fri, 05 Jan 2018 00:31:22 GMThttp://trevonbranch.com/blog/sumo8543800This competition is based on the ancient Japanese art of “Sumo Wrestling”.  Modified to fit the robotic venue, the pupils plan robots specifically designed to propel opponent robots from the gaming arena
How it Works:
Bots face one another and await the indication to commence. The robots clash and attempt to force their rivals out of bounds. The competitors cultivate a familiarity with guiding principles of mechanical engineering.

<![CDATA[LEARNING IS FUN]]>Fri, 05 Jan 2018 00:28:03 GMThttp://trevonbranch.com/blog/january-04th-2018Campers enjoy programming using EV3 robotic bricks and individual computers. They elect to build from an infinite amount of stimulating robotic designs using diverse platforms. They can follow instructions or shape their own special project. We do not ask students to repeat tasks they may already carried out previously. Each camper can build using Tetrix Prime or Lego Mindstorms (EV3) platforms.​ Tetrix Prime or Lego Mindstorms (EV3) platforms.]]>
