A robotic workshop for Kids! Learn about batteries, motors, and switches; creating several different types of mobile robots that spin, dance, and draw using recycled and reused electric components and cool laser cut acrylic chassis. PetBots can be built by anyone without prior experience. Also on show will be the Robot Ranch where you can drive the Nerf Gun Roomba and see how good your aim really is.
