Intermediate Robotics (Python & Competitive Design)
Take your robotics skills to the next level. Transition from block-coding to real, text-based Python programming with LEGO® SPIKE™ Prime and Pybricks, and prepare for competitive robotics events.
What Students Will Learn
Transition to Python
Learn to seamlessly translate visual block-coding concepts into raw, text-based Python scripts using Pybricks.
Precision Engineering
Master the use of advanced sensors and motors to program robots that navigate and complete mission objectives with pinpoint accuracy.
Strategic Attachments
Understand the mechanical advantages of designing and deploying both motorized and passive attachments tailored for specific tasks.
Competitive Strategy
Dive deep into competition dynamics — analyze rulebooks, decode complex themes, and engineer solutions under constraints.
Capstone Challenge & Competition Readiness
Throughout the course, students actively prepare for prestigious events like the World Robot Olympiad (WRO). They design their robots, strategize around competition themes, and test their code against rigorous standards. To graduate to the Advanced level, students must successfully complete a series of complex, timed robotics missions that synthesize everything they have learned.
