A competitive robotics masterclass covering LEGO Ev3/Spike and FLL concepts
Hello! Welcome to the Apera Robotics Course. This course is designed to take any student with varying degrees of experience in robotics from beginner to advanced robotics skills. While this course can be used for general robotics knowledge but some content in the course will be targeted towards skills that would be used in competitive robotics like FLL.
Competitive Robotics is becoming increasingly more popular as technology takes a forefront in this generation. This course is meant for students who are ready to learn robotics or take steps to make their team more competitive. Included in the course are skills that will be very beneficial on any robotics team as well as FLL specific challenges that will help you build your knowledge and problem solving skills.
What you’ll learn
- Designing a suitable robot based on the challenges needs.
- Navigating and Controlling Robot Functions on the Ev3 Brick.
- Using Engineering skills to build a functional robot.
- Using the Ev3 sensors and motors to their fullest extent.
- Understanding how to write pseudocode and how to implement it into real code.
- Navigating and utilizing a block coding environment.
