Three groups of grade nines (the Rob C course) are working on a formal design challenge to replace the existing Standard Teaching Bot (read about it here). In short, we’re looking for a more flexible and fun-to-play-with model, that will allow students to experiment with different gear ratios and swap sensors quickly.
Here’s what we have so far… a sneak peak into the design process.

So… three different designs. Where will the process take us? What are the potential rewards? Your name on the winning robot.
