Through this Bottle RoboSumo, students can learn multiple STEM subjects such as physics, math, gears, logic, mechanical engineering, computer programming, and engineering design process by DOING. Especially, the introduction of an additional target object (Bottle) makes the game more challenging and minimizes the random chance of winning. >> Fall 2012 Bottle RoboSumo NXT-G Workshops, at LTU, in Michigan. Sat. Oct 6, 9am ~ Noon; Identical session 1-4pm / FOR MORE INFO: http://www.robofest.net/bottleSumo.htm
