BUILD THE FUTURE - EMERGENCE TRACK
This is an advanced robotics research program that will take admitted students on a journey of discovery and delight as they see their contributions becoming a permanent part of a new life-size humanoid robot they help bring to life.
Participants will be expected to deliver on their assigned projects in a self-guided manner as part of a team, and learn the required tools and technologies on their own with provided frameworks.
Topics will include electrical engineering, computer science, mechanical engineering, design, psychology of interaction with humanoid robots. And of course, loads of fun.
Only 10 spots are available
HOW IT WORKS
Upon joining the track, each student will become part of one among many small teams and collaborate on the design, construction, and programming of a humanoid robot.
Teams will meet every week for research and project activity, demos, learning sessions, progress updates and guidance on next steps.
