The camp uniquely blends hands-on robotics with cutting-edge AI tools and content creation, empowering students to design and program smart solutions for real-world environmental and competitive challenges.
The Applied Computing Foundation Robotics Camp offers an immersive experience where young innovators become tech-savvy problem-solvers. Students engage in hands-on robotics projects, learning foundational concepts in AI, physical computing, and programming. They build intelligent prototypes using hardware like LEGO robotics, Arduino, and Raspberry Pi, and explore the use of drones. The curriculum emphasizes applying these creations to solve real-world challenges, such as designing autonomous cleanup submersibles for ocean protection or creating robots for sports competitions. Campers also develop future-ready skills by blending mechanical engineering with digital media, including using AI tools for content creation like scriptwriting and voiceovers for YouTube-style videos. The program fosters teamwork, critical thinking, and an entrepreneurial spirit through collaborative projects and challenges.
A typical day includes a morning warm-up with a STEM icebreaker, followed by hands-on building and engineering of LEGO marine robots. After a break, students focus on coding and sensors for navigation and detection missions, with a lunch break for full-day campers. The afternoon involves an AI Media Lab for content creation and concludes with a demo and reflection session where students present their progress and discoveries.
This camp is ideal for young innovators interested in technology, creativity, and problem-solving, who enjoy hands-on building and collaborative challenges.
