Robotics Workshop at Urban Squash Toronto
Downsview Park in Toronto, Ontario. August 6 to 7, 2024
On August 6 and 7, 2024, the Pink Titans ran robotics workshops in the summer camp for the Urban Squash Toronto. It's an organization that provides athletic and educational supports to underserved, underrepresented youth in the Jane-Finch area of Toronto. A dozen campers used the LEGO SPIKE Prime platform to code the robot to move with changing directions and navigate through a maze. The children also coded the robot to push as many cups out of the perimeter in the least amount time. The Pink Titans collaborated with members of FLL 5831 - Ctrl-Z from North York, who also ran a coding workshop about the line-following sensor. Thanks very much Coach Borromeo of FLL-C 5831 - Ctrl-Z, Exec. Dir. Adamson, and Prog. Dir. Browne for the opportunity! (Program Director Browne also graduated from David & Mary Thomson C. I., the host school of the Pink Titans!) Thanks very much FIRST Robotics Canada for providing the summer camp training to the Pink Titans. Thanks very much McCall MacBain Foundation for the donation of the LEGO SPIKE Prime kits.
