Mars Rover Build Camp @the Museum of Radio and Technology
June 16
A Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math STEM-related one-week Summer Camp where participants will build a Mars-like four-wheel drive rover run by an on-board Audino microcontroller.
It is going to be the week of June 16th, 2025. This Summer Camp is geared to youngsters 12 to 16 years old. The Mars Rover Project is designed so each student achieves an understanding of a system design. The project covers the construction and discussion of rover sub-systems as micro controller, sensors, and remote control. The course focuses on the assembly of mechanical and electrical components to complete an operational Mars Rover that the student may keep.
The cost will be $250.00 per participant. The classes start on Monday morning at 10:00am and run to 3:00pm each day. Lunch is from 12:00 to 1:00pm and students need to bring their own lunch except for Friday. The Museum will be hosting a Pizza party that day for all of the students and staff.
