What is the Course?

Inspire Robotics offers Pet Builders to our youngest generations. This program involves giving students as young as preps, the opportunity to team up and engineer there own character of choice. Students will construct these characters and animate them using electrical servos!

Course Outline

  • Students are introduced to the concept of engineering, planning and connecting basic geometric shapes using screws with wing nuts.
  • Students work in teams to build and decorate their animated wonder (character).
  • Students animate their characters using servos plugged into pre-programmed boards in a seemless plug in play experience.
  • The program culminates with an Animated Wonder showcase, where everyones design is put on display and presented to the cohort along with parents.

Spectator Event!

This Program has the opportunity of concluding with a large event where parents are invited to come and watch! We'll provide photographers and a speaker to record and host the event and put together a personalized video the school that can be used for promotion!
