Robotics Club
The Robotics Club welcomes all students interested in robotics, computer vision, or embedded systems. Students in the club will work with Sun Founder Pi Car, Raspberry Pi, and Finch robots. Students can design, build, and translate their own ideas into robotic activities. Robotics Club provides a fun learning environment for students to come together and study the field of robotics. It helps them foster critical thinking, team building, social, and leadership skills. Club activities allow students to pursue their interest in robotics outside of the classroom, work on their capstone projects, learn from other students, and complete projects that can demonstrate their abilities when looking for a permanent job.
