Build and take home the Jungle Robot, an advanced level robot that includes a gear box. Campers see and learn how different types of gears mesh and are driven by a motor, and connect the motor, battery and microphone to a circuit board, which will program your sound-activated robot. There will be time in this camp for advanced robotics students to challenge their imaginations and skills as they work in small groups to build different robotic creatures and vehicles. Tires, motors, gears, wires and controllers are used to move these robots across the floor. After making trial runs, teams can modify their designs to increase their robot’s capabilities before it is tested for speed, strength and endurance in Sumo battles, tug-of-war contests and time/distance tests. The robots built in this section of the workshop are not taken home. They are taken apart, so components can be reused to build yet another robotic creation.

Your child will become a super science sleuth, learning about forensics, crime scene investigations and crime lab chemistry as campers perform experiments designed to show how tricky cases are solved. Campers search for the evidence, gather clues and discover how science can help solve a mystery. Participants will dust for fingerprints, analyze handwriting, test for blood type using simulated blood, examine hair and clothing fibers, practice chemistry to identify mystery substances and much more. Participants will then use their skills to solve crimes of the century.
