DeVry Robotics Bootcamp by: Barry Bonzack
This event on November 4th in Orlando looks to be the best Bootcamp yet.
DeVry always holds a yearly Bootcamp where they have their college professors teaching FIRST high school students basics in robotics. It is a highly informative set of workshops. This year it looks like the decided to make it into a fun competition after the students finish their workshops. Brilliant!
I wanted to go to this event last year, but silly me scheduled my 16th birthday party for the same day. From what I heard from my team mates it was a great experience and they encouraged me to go this year.
Barry, thanks for putting this on CD. I’ve somehow haven’t received a copy from either of my mentors. Which is quite strange since I normally know about things before they do or they at least give me a copy before they tell the team.
I’m probably going to be in programming (first choice) or mechanical (second choice. No sensors for me
Thanks Barry for posting this info. Two Mars students will be attending. Devry had 160 students registered when I spoke with them this week. Should be a great experience.
I will be running the NEMO workshop at the bootcamp for the mentors while the students are in their robotics workshops. I am going to have a computer with internet access and show how to join Chiefdelphi and NEMO, as well as use CD to answer non-engineering related questions. What threads do you all believe would be relevant to show a group of mentors?
