Robots on the Run

The Rhode Island Computer Museum will present a free Workshop call “Robots on the Run”. The workshop aims to explain basic circuits and instructions on how to build a simple robot. You will learn programmable electronics, and instructions for making lights blink, motors run, sounds and a lot more. We’ll take time to learn about interactive software titled “Arduino” and you can create your own sample “Robot”.

If you've are a gadget geek, science nerd, budding engineer or other electronics-obsessed loved one, come build a robot with us. Bring your broken electronics and we’ll take them apart with you to learn about circuits. Age and skill level is 10 and up.

The presentation is part of ongoing traveling exhibits by the Rhode Island Computer Museum. This Workshop is partially supported by IEEE-USA K-12STEM Literacy Committee’s outreach program.
