H ROBOTICS 2: ADVANCED APPLICATIONS (Grades 10-12)

HONORS ROBOTICS 2: ADVANCED APPLICATIONS (Grades 10-12)  
(EDI6615)  

The essential purpose of the Advanced Robotic Applications course is to expose students to applications of higher level programming, complex structural systems and high tech robotic sensors.  Students will experience advanced programming concepts through the creation of functions or subroutines, pseudocode and program troubleshooting practices. Structural systems will include lifting mechanisms, linear motion and high torque drive systems. The inner workings and application of sensors such as integrated motor encoders, potentiometers and gyroscopes will also be experienced.  Throughout the course, students will work in small groups to complete projects where they must utilize their experiences and knowledge to complete challenges related to real world experiences. Prerequisite: Completion of Robotics Design, Build & Program with a “B” or better.  This is a Level 1 IB Career Programme Course.
