Description:
Fun and surprisingly useful, aerial flying machines can quite literally add a whole new dimension to our lives. Drone, UAV, sUAS – there are a lot of names for the little (and not so little) devices that, over the next years, are expected to take over the skies. But there’s no reason to wait until then to immerse ourselves in the world of airborne gizmos. The potential applications for this are limitless, starting with bringing much-needed supplies to victims in disaster areas or photographing glorious natural vistas from above, to snap selfies and even deliver packages, what other innovative uses of flying machines can you imagine?

In this Studio, we will blend the basics of aerodynamics, technology, and fun! We will be constructing flying robots, and we will gain an understanding of how transmitters and receivers communicate. While also learning about flight, design, engineering, and robotic intelligence (automaton, remote control, teleoperation, full autonomy). We will experience the hands-on joy of soldering, programming, building circuits, laser cutting, and 3D printing.
