About this camp

The Education Unlimited Robotics Camp offers an immersive, hands-on experience where students learn to build and program robots from scratch using the VEX V5 robotics platform. Campers will explore robot mechanics, electrical circuits, power systems, and communication systems. Key activities include constructing a robot chassis, mounting motors, adding wheels and gears to create a drive system, and experimenting with light and pressure sensors. Students will also learn about speed and torque, and apply design thinking principles to brainstorm, construct, test, and redesign their robots to overcome challenges. The program culminates in a robotics sports competition, where students test their creations in a fun, competitive environment. This camp is designed to develop problem-solving, critical thinking, and engineering skills through practical application.
