Overview

Starting in Oct 2007. Our Little Scientist Program will offer our Vex 101 Workshops to age 12+.

Fees are $25 per session of 2 hours. Youths will bulid VEX ROBOTICS based gearboxes, drive trains, mechanical robots, control automation based on Vex Computer based software and implemented with the educational VEX Robot Controller and sub-systems. Where possible, we will also introduce RobotC compiling language platform.

The workshops is based the CURRICULUM developed by Carneige Mellon Univeristy's ROBOTICS ACADEMY. It can intrigued the most talented and intuitive youths at that age who seek for more processing data.

The total number of sessions to qualify for a certificate of achievement is 14 sessions. 8 sessions is a minimum to qualify for entry to our Indepdendent Team as basic training.

This year we will be registering an INDEPENDENT VEX TEAM to join the FIRST TECHNICAL CHALLENGE in any Ontario competition.

As a promoter for Vex Robotics kit and its competition for almost 2 years now. We finally gain the trust from the designers - Vex Labs of the Vex Robotics to be able to bring in the products directly (now replacing what used to be RadioShack's exclusive). Little Scientist will also now offer a forum at www.vexrobotics.ca to support open sharing of ideas and fostering of possible mini challenge and competition in Ontario, Canada.

We now offer programming workshops and mechanical workshops using Vex Robotics kit.


Other vex projects conceived by us including a replica of an elevator in Square One Mississauga and a robot controlling a children ride on toy. Click here for accessing our album
