Class Description:
Dive into the exciting world of robotics and engineering in this hands-on class using LEGO Spike Prime! In Super Clean-Up, students will design, build, and test robotic grabbers to tackle a real-world challenge. By constructing and programming two different grabber designs, students will explore concepts like mechanical efficiency, design optimization, and testing against specific criteria.
What Students Will Learn:
Engineering Design Principles: Discover how to create effective and efficient mechanical designs using LEGO Spike Prime.
Programming Skills: Learn to program and control your robot for precise movements and operations.
Scientific Testing: Conduct tests to compare the performance of two grabber designs, using data to determine which one works best.
Problem-Solving and Iteration: Refine your designs based on test results and improve efficiency.
Activities Include:
Brainstorming and building two unique grabber designs.
Programming the robots to execute grab-and-clean tasks.
Testing both designs based on specific criteria, such as speed, grip strength, and accuracy.
Analyzing test results to identify the most efficient grabber design.
Reflecting on the engineering process and presenting findings.
Key Takeaways:
By the end of this class, students will have hands-on experience in robotics design, programming, and critical thinking, along with a deeper understanding of how testing and iteration lead to better engineering solutions.
