We are teaching a new maker art class called ‘Robot World’, to help 4th and 5th graders create their own artistic robot. This after-school class is taking place in fall 2017 at the Lycée Français in Sausalito. Students are learning how to make their bots move in a variety of ways, as well as play sounds and light up, using a programmable Arduino board.
This photo set covers the first half of our 12-part course, when students get to build their robots. Each student received their own robot kit, which they learned to assemble, control and program. They first built a chassis, then wired up the electronics, assembled a remote control, then added a head and arms, with servo motors to make them move.
We then laser cut wooden figures and body parts based on their designs, which included a police bot, a swat bot, a devil bot and a chef bot. Once their bots are designed and assembled, they will learn how to program them and make them move in different ways, then decorate them, give them a story, and present a robot show to their friends and families in December.
For this course, my partner Edward Janne and I created our own robot kit, using an Arduino Feather M0 for the robot, an RF remote, a custom chassis, plus three additional servos and more parts. Our robot kit is similar to commercial products, but with a lot more features, at a lower cost. It was a lot of work, but we’re very happy with the final results, and our students seemed to really enjoy the class. We hope this will encourage other teachers, students and makers to create their own animated characters, for art and technology’s sake.

Ambassador Miller joined 30 enthusiastic students at the American Center for a U.S. Embassy and Robo Lab jointly hosted Robotics Fair to promote STEM education during Computer Science Education Week. Participants showcased their own creations, which included a spider robot, a human intrusion detection system, an Arduino weather station, and an automated street light system, and shared their innovative ideas with each other. Visit the American Center’s MakerSpace to participate in hands-on activities like this and learn how innovation and invention can be used to solve everyday problems.
Taller de Armado y Programación de Robots en el 2do. Campamento Científico del Uruguay
Este innovador taller, que dio inicio a un Programa llamado "Robot Diplomacy", de la embajada de Estados Unidos en Uruguay, tuvo lugar en el marco del 2do. Campamento Latinoamericano de Ciencias, que lleva adelante la Dirección de Innovación Ciencia y Tecnología del MEC, con el apopo de ANEP y UTU en Minas, departamento de Lavalleja. La Ingeniera Mecánica Theresa Dixon, de la embajada de los Estados Unidos en Montevideo, fue la encargada de dictar este taller.

We are teaching a new maker art class called ‘Robot World’, to help children create their own artistic robots. This class for grades 4-5 is taking place at the Lycée Français in Sausalito. Students are learning how to make their bots move in a variety of ways, as well as play sounds and light up, using a programmable Arduino board.
This photo set covers our our first classes, when students designed their own robots, as well as a magical world for them to live in. They imagined a future space city connected to earth by a long elevator, and populated by robots and friendly demons. They named it Foodville: a peaceful world filled with food, including soda fountains, cars powered by slushies, with cotton candy clouds and a sea of apple juice.
Students created animated characters designed to make their world a better place: two police bots, a care bot and a friendly devil. They can throw marshmallows and cotton balls, to insure a life of ‘everlasting fun.’ In coming weeks, we will laser cut wooden figures based on their designs, and they will assemble their bots, make them move, then decorate them, give them a story, and present a robot show to their friends and families.
Each student received their own robot kit, which they will learn to assemble, control and program. They will then take their completed robot home with them, after the class ends. For this course, my partner Edward Janne and I have created our own robot kit, using an Arduino Feather M0 for the robot, an RF remote, a custom chassis, plus three additional servos and more parts. Our robot kit is similar to commercial products, but with a lot more features at a lower cost.

Photos from the Virginia Beach Fire Training Center this week of testing being done on the latest robotic technology available to emergency response agencies. ASTI International along with federal agencies to include NSTI and the Department of Homeland Security were here at the training center to test and evaluate the various systems available today. They are doing standardize testing on the robotic systems to help various emergency response agencies and the military determine and quantify the capabilities of these systems. This testing /competing helps agencies determine what are the best systems for their particular missions and even increases proficiency of the users of these systems. Robotics developers from as far away as Japan and elsewhere around the world are here to participate in this unique event.
The robotics systems included ground, aerial and aquatic robots, maneuvering through special obstacle courses built for this event. Some of the robots even maneuvered through the “Burn House” at the fire training center. Local police departments and military units are participating with their bomb disposal units and NYFD and other fire departments across the country are also participating.

“Robot Mask” supports and amplifies the expressiveness of the human face. To do so, it has recourse to robotic as well as biomedical technologies. Developed for patients paralyzed on one side of their face, “Robot Mask” measures the myoelectric signals on the healthy half of the face when the wearer is smiling and transmits them to the impaired half. Thus, taking advantage of this form of robot-supported physiotherapy is simply left up to the discretion of the person applying it to himself/herself.

It's finally here, Robot Wars! It is a Barnes and Nobel exclusive paper robot kit I did with Becker & Mayer books. You build the paper bots and put them on the wind-up mechanism a let them battle it out! I just got my sample copies today in the mail!
Paper Robots by me, Design by Katie Stahnke and words by Erika Kern.
Available at Barnes and Nobel stores or at
Robotic arms are the thing that interest me the most, and the area that I've had the most first-hand experience with. MIT's work in robotic arm technology is nothing short of amazing.

The software for the robot is ready for testing. Here you see a screen dump of the run mode. According to the lightening dots, steel balls are placed in a wall matrix by the robot. Information during positioning can be followed on the screen. The encorders are read out in real time and placed on the screen. Motion directions are also displayed. A counter has been added to indicate how many refresch bursts occur per second of the I2C connection. This varies around 200. This indicates that the TXT Controller is very fast to readout in realtime the data information.
Here the program works in run mode. The steel balls are brought from the input to the wall according to a selected pattern. During run mode you can see which dot is processed, indicated by the blue horizontal and vertical points in the matrix. This will become even clearer later on on a video. The status of the end switches of the 3 axes is also visible in real time.
The pattern used is the character 58 from the character rom. This value can also be followed on the PC screen. At the beginning of next week I can drill the holes for the wall. There will be 2 more sensors placed to see if there is a steel ball on the robot arm.
