These sorts of events delight me no end. Seeing local high-school students really work the cutting edge is just awesome.
Imagine Children’s Museum is hosting robotics clubs from Cascade, Glacier Peak and Lynnwood High Schools (The Cascade Bruin Robotics, Lynnwood Royal Robotics and Glacier Peak Sonic Squirrels) this Saturday, April 19. These students will demonstrate robots of their own design and creation, including FIRST Robotics Competition, FIRST Tech Challenge and FIRST LEGO League bots. Amongst other activities, you’re invited to participate in constructing the robotic equivalent of a functional human hand. Young scientists will bring robotic hands to life, creating a mechanism that simulates the tendons in human fingers.
Activities will take place in The Great Room on the Lower Level from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m, and is covered by the regular $9.50 admission.
Part of the I-Engineers program, which is presented quarterly through generous sponsorship by our local Fluke Corporation.
