Description

This exciting robotics camp is an advanced program designed for middle school students who want to push robots to the limits. The camp is using the latest EV3 robot from LEGO. This platform is a significant improvement from the old NXT – you can control up to 4 motors and 4 sensors simultaneously. The system has expanded memory, processing power, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. These sensors are more accurate and they’ve added a gyro sensor that opens a whole realm of possible applications.
