Event : Make Vincent van Gogh Proud

Students designed a "costume" to dress up their robot of choice.

The students wanted to 3D print something that would sit on top of the Sphero.  They first designed a prototype to make sure they had a solid design.  Then they tested for sizing.  Finally they printed the top head portion in yellow and the bottom cylinder portion in blue and then designed it to look like a minion.

Event : King of Coding Part 1

Students chose a Mindstorm build to create and program.  A video had to be created for "Game Day". 

Brett chose the Mindstorm design of a bass guitar.  He built and coded it to play different notes.  His challenge was to learn Smoke on the Water with the robotic guitar.

Event : King of Coding Part 2

Students chose a Mindstorm build to create and program.  A video had to be created for "Game Day". 

Holden chose the Mindstorm design of a copycat robotic hand.  He built and coded it to mimic his hand.  His challenge was to successfully throw a ball.

Event : Machine Learning (Mindstorm)

Students chose a Mindstorm build to create and program.  A video had to be created for "Game Day". 

Myles & Mazric were challenged with an AI Brick Sorter.  They had to construct the intricate build and then code it to sort the bricks by color.  To do this, the machine had to be taught how to recognize different colors with the camera.
