Beginners Robot Workshop for Adults January 30, 2007

In this hands-on workshop, you will build your own robot from scratch using a solderless breadboard, motors, and electronic components. No ready-made circuit board here! Learn about the electronics behind robots, then apply what you've learned to wire-up your own bot. You will use an infrared light detector to give your robot eyes, timers, and digital logic to give it brains and motors to make it go. This class is designed to demystify the electronic side of robotics, giving you the necessary electronics knowledge and equations to understand how your robot and other simple robots work. No experience necessary!

Tuesdays 7:15pm - 9:15pm
Meets 8 sessions, Jan. 30 Feb. 6, 13, 20, 27 March 6, 13, 20
Workshop Tuition: $550 (Includes all robotic components & digital multi-meter)

Workshop Instructor: Larry Parrington is a Project Engineer at Honeybee Robotics working on various subsystems for future robotic Mars rovers and has been involved in numerous robotic projects. He holds degrees in Mechanical Engineering and Physics.
