Where Robots Rule! At American Robotics Academy® our mission is to excite, inspire, and motivate young people about the fun, importance and impact of robotics technology in today's world. In this exclusive program, we provide your son or daughter with the guidance and confidence to build simple working robots, as well as the inspiration for more complex robotic inventions. We will stimulate their imagination and creativity by encouraging them to explore, experience and express themselves through our hands-on interactive robotics program. Students will be working with the widely known and popular plastic LEGO building blocks, including the more specialized pieces such as axles, gears, beams, wheels, motors, microcomputers, pneumatics and other parts that will enable your child to safely create animated and exciting mechanical movements and other effects. Working in teams, students will learn how to design, build and test remote and computer controlled minature robots. This class will help them to understand "how things work" through hands-on activities that demonstrate the principles of simple and motorized machines. Students learn a variety of ways to design a robot to do the things they want it to do. They will decide and build, as a team, the best design of a robot for the big competition held at the end of the class. Held in a friendly, clean, sports-like atmosphere, we focus on team-building, problem solving, creativity and fun, fun, fun!
