Young Scientist - Robotics Program

How do robots see the world? Did you ever wonder how robots sense the world around them. In this workshop you'll get to play with - and also make your own - 'sensors'.  These can be used by robots to detect things like when they've bumped into a wall or when someone shines a light on them.

 

Professor Robbie Berg from Wellesley College will present a program for young scientists.
