I-Robotics Programme: 6 Modules

   
 
Module 1: "Stack & Build" -
Enter the realm of Robotics
   
  Come and join this very amazing workshop on basic robotics building. Participants will have the opportunity to be engulfed in the world of robotics and learn about its importance in today’s world of technology. Students will also get the chance to use the RCX, and learn how to build and construct secure robots using the LEGO MINDSTORMS set.
   
 
   
  Level : Primary 3 and above
       



 
Module 2: "Command & Control" –
an introduction to Robolab Programming
   
  Sign up for this exciting workshop and you will be introduced to basic Robolab Programming. At the end of this workshop, the participants will know how to program a robot to move forward, backward, looping and learn different methods of turning a robot using the ROBOLAB software. They will also learn about Infra-Red Transmission.
   
 
       
  Level : Primary 3 and above
       
     
Prerequisite
: Basic knowledge of Lego robot parts.



 
Module 3: "Geared Up!"
   
  Find out more about the different types of gears in the LEGO Mindstorms set like bevel gear, rack gear and even worm gear. Experiment with the different gears to produce different gear ratios, what is gearing up or gearing down plus lots more…Observe the rotation of the gears as you try to build your own simple gear models using the LEGO parts. Finally apply what you have learnt to tackle a challenge building your very own Sprint robot!
   
 
   
  Level : Primary 3 and above
       
     
Prerequisite
: Basic knowledge of Lego robot parts.



 
Module 4: "Lift off!"
   
  Do you know how pulleys work? What are the different types of pulley system present in our everyday lives? Learn about the principles behind a pulley system and construct your own pulley model using the LEGO set… experiment lifting up different weights – from light to heavy. Push your pulley model to the ultimate limit! Solve a challenging problem posed to you using the knowledge that you have gained from the workshop … the strongest pulley model wins!
   
 
   
  Level : Primary 3 and above
       
     
Prerequisite
: Basic knowledge of Lego robot parts.



 
Module 5 & 6: "Sense IT! "
   
  Ever wondered how a robot “smell”, “touch”, “taste”, “hear” and “see”? Can a robot do all 5? Explore a robot’s sensory system and discover how to get it moving using these senses. Understand their practical usage in everyday life, and learn how to design and assemble a robot with these senses. Also learn advanced programming skills involving these functions using Robolab, and pit yourself against other participants for challenging exercises!
