Girls Just Wanna Have Fun! - Robotics

Fall 2009 - Marvelous MindStormers

 

 

The girls tackled the FIRST Lego League (FLL) SmartMove Robitics competition.  On the left, they are preparing a transportation project.  Then, on the right, they are presenting the project at the FLL regional competition.

In addition, they constructed a competition field and robot out of Legos.  In preparation for the competition, they programmed the robot to complete missions and tested it out.  The robot performed just as expected at the competition.

 

The girls construct, program, and test the robot.
