Robots are gaining in popularity and we see more and more of them in schools. I’m not talking about robot teachers or janitors but about students being introduced and showing a growing interest in robotics. That's what I had the chance to see at the CRC Robotics event.
Hello everyone, Seán as usual. This is the third and final chapter of a journey where my team and I had to build, fly and compete in a drone racing event (click to read the first and second chapters). It has now been about a week since the national finals of Syndic8. We entered the competitio
Hi, this is Seán again. So it has been a while since the first post of our journey in drone racing and a lot has happened since then. The national competition will be on the 15th of May (only 5 days away from when I'm writing this. Yikes!). So let's get right down to it. Why are we competing in Dr
Hi, my name is Seán Tjong! My friends and I are entering a drone competition as part of our school curriculum. We've decided to document our adventures in drone building and racing. We're excited to write and share our project's journal on RobotShop's Blog. We will update you on a regular basis on
