The Challenge
Each participant will receive a Challenger’s Kit, with which they are challenged to design and build a robotic arm or mobile robot that performs a specific task.
These 10 successful applicants will get a Selection of TE Connectors, an Arduino Uno, and Robotics Shields, free of charge, to build and blog their project with.
For the chance to win one of the prizes below, participants must blog their build process, as well as the final outcome of their Robotic Movement Project.
Included in the Challenger's Kit are a Selection of TE-provided components, as well as an Arduino Uno; use these to create your Robotic Movement Project.
Good integration of the TE components and interesting uses of movement will be graded more favorably.
Example tasks that can be performed include, but are not limited to:
- Building a robot arm that can pick up and set down an object
- Building a robot arm that moves in all degrees of freedom
- Building a mobile robot that follows a line
- Building a mobile robot that can avoid an object in its path
