1 JD 1 Roli 1 six 3 dev kits some batteries and chargers.
I am 3D printing parts to build Patriot 1 (mascot of the school and the first custom built robot at the school using EZ-Robot). It is going to have Rapiro's head and a yet to be determined body. We will also build some sort of a rideable platform or vehicle for him to travel much more quickly. The students will decide what all he needs to be able to do and what he will look like (other than the head). I will be recording the program and supplying the videos to EZ-Robot. This is going to be a very fun year!
d,cochran, That is great what you are going to be doing with the students. I am sure the students will have many interesting ideas and plans. Looking forward to the feedback and videos of their EZ Robots. Steve S
I will be using the six, roli and jd to introduce the students to robots and the ez-buider software. once they get comfortable with it, we will start working on Patriot one. We will 3d model him and print him out and build him. The head will dictate his size and i am sure he will resemble jd at first and will build out from there. The goal is for Patriot one to be at some sporting events and class room activities. Because walker bots are slow, I see a vehicle in his future. Three dev kits will make that happen for sure. I also have some other parts that will be donated. Its going to be a fun year. I love watching kids be excited about learning. Having no barriers to learning is something that i had with computers many years ago. I remember how excited I got when I wrote my first program. I cant wait to see this in these students.
