Participants will learn to identify and integrate multiple components of a robotics system, gaining a comprehensive understanding of how these systems function. Through engaging lessons and practical projects, students will also develop programming skills to enable their robots to execute specific tasks with precision and efficiency. 

The camp will utilize the wheeled ShieldBot robotic platform controlled by an Arduino module, providing an accessible yet powerful tool for exploring robotics concepts. By the end of the program, students will have built and programmed their own robots, gaining valuable experience in robotics design, integration, and problem-solving. 

The Robotics Integration and Software Foundations camp also includes field trips to Schreiber Foods (Shippensburg, PA) and Volvo Construction Equipment (Shippensburg, PA), and a guest speaker from JLG (Hagerstown, MD). 

Whether you’re a beginner curious about robotics or an aspiring engineer looking to deepen your knowledge, this camp is the perfect place to explore your interests and expand your skills in a supportive and innovative environment. Don’t miss this opportunity to join a community of passionate learners and take your first step into the future of technology!
