Mini-bot Competition Highlights

Add comment December 7th, 2008

What an exciting event to see these young high school students designing , making and now competing with their mini-bots at Winnebago Middle School this past Saturday!  The enthusiasm they were showing for their work was something to be proud.  Students from Oregon, Oswego, Batavia, Ill. Math and Science Academy and Winnebago High Schools participated with mini-bots designed to scoop up tennis balls and deposit them in a ball counter after driving them up a ramp.

Kudos also to Karen Hill the Team 1625 Coordinator and all her volunteers that organizes these events.  Here are some of the photos I took; if I can figure out how to upload the movies I too, I’ll put them up.

Enjoy the photos!
