2/27/2018 and 3/1/2018. This week in the iNEST maker club, the girls put the finishing touches on their Hummingbird robotics projects. Dr. Oliver brought to the school some 3d-printed mechanisms for the girls to try out with their servos, and Mrs. Dupree worked with some of the club members to 3d-print some cardboard-punches that also hold Hummingbird servos in place on cardboard constructions. Some of the girls helped out in the club this week by making posters for Thursday's student showcase at the state technology conference, NC-TIES. Thanks to everyone who helped the club get ready for this event, packing up robots and electrical supplies, scheduling bus transportation, and chaperoning the event. The girls who attended NC-TIES on Thursday did a great job representing the club and school, speaking with several teachers and many of their peer students about their work with Hummingbird. Check out the pics below! We attracted a big crowd and lots of interest in Hummingbird projects! After the showcase, the girls enjoyed walking through the vendor exhibit area and checking out some of the latest educational technologies on the market such as virtual reality headsets, promethean table top screens, and further robotics platforms like ozobots. Great job everyone!
