Cary Area Library Outreach

Cary Area Library Outreach

This Sunday, we had a mentoring outreach at the Cary Area Public Library.  Two of our team members helped elementary aged kids build their own Lego Mindstorms robots.  Kids could choose from a self balancing Gyro Boy, a cute Puppy, an amazing Color Sorter or a futuristic Robotic Arm.  One team created a tank bot using the Mindstorms expansion kit, and, with the help of one of The Golden Ratio team members, added a “remote control” function.  In total, 14 kids built 7 amazing robots!

A whole lot of bots!

Our outreach last night at Chick-Fil-A in Crystal Lake was great!  We demonstrated our Lego Mindstorms EV3 robot creations.  We had a variety of robots, including a line following forklift and a “calculator” that could calculate Pi, square roots and The Golden Ratio!
