One of the common questions parents will ask me is how did Beckwith Tech Camp get started? Like most people who suddenly appear, it takes years of practice and work to get to that point. I started literally in my basement, playing with Lego, wiring circuits together, and making matchbox cars throug…
With the release of very low cost 3D printers, consumers quickly realize that in order to create a custom plastic part, the model first needs to be created in 3D. While some 3D printer manufacturers include sample 3D models which are ready to print, the process of creating a custom design and ultim…
You might find yourself one day with an RC remote control with the auto-centering of a joystick enabled and wanting to enable or disable it. This is a very easy thing to change as you'll see here. To illustrate this post, we used a Spektrum DX E remote, but the concept can be applied to many (thoug…
Robert More is a happy customer at RobotShop and he's teaching kids at Beckwith Tech Camp. He's sharing with us his experience and the process they follow. At Beckwith Tech Camp, we believe every camper will find something that will interest them in the world of robotics. Whether it is in the d
We're moving towards a world full of robots, that's a fact. In this series, we're taking a break for a second to assess where Contemporary Robotics are at today and what the future looks like. For this first chapter, we're focusing on robotics in Education. Contemporary Robotics Education Robot…
