Create and Code with Hummingbird

Remote Robots are real robots that can be programmed via the internet by anyone from anywhere. They offer a novel, equitable way to engage students in STEAM and physical computing, even when students are remote. Remote robots were developed at BirdBrain Technologies as a way to continue STEAM learning during the pandemic. The technology works with the Hummingbird Robotics Kit, an easy-to-use, creative robotics tool which allows students to design and program a robot made from any materials.In this playground session we invite you to program, in real-time, several remote robots built from Hummingbird Kits. We will also share tutorials on how to set up your own remote robots, as well as examples of remote classrooms using the technology. Join us in a virtual but still highly interactive robot coding workshop, while learning how you can incorporate physical computing and engineering design into any classroom!
