IEEE Education Society Initiative #26 : Robotics For The Streets: Open-Source Robotics for Academics and The Community
November 16 @ 8:00 am - 10:00 am
This two-hour workshop will present open-source robotics platform, Lily∞Bot, including hardware, software and electronics. These robots are designed accessible, inclusive and flexible to grow with the user from novice to expert. This is accomplished with extensive online learning resources, battery modules, and controller modules for platforms such as Micro:Bit, Circuit Playground Express, Arduino, and Raspberry Pi Pico W. There will also be a discussion of how an open-source robot may be used to meet some of requirements of the IEEE Standard for Networked Smart Learning Objects for Online Laboratories. This is an interactive workshop with a hands-on component using a physical robot for in person participants. Finally, the workshop will end with a survey or brainstorming session on how participants could use the Lily∞Bot to meet their engineering education goals and/or the IEEE Standard for Networked Smart Learning Objects for Online Laboratories (IEEE Std 1876™-2019).
