REV Squad Robotics (Reverse Engineering Robotics) Because life doesn’t always come with an instruction book, neither will your robots. Do you really need instructions to recreate, duplicate, or make a working model better? What’s the big picture? How do all these pieces make it happen? Teams must draw from their deeper understanding of how Legos work together to make a complete enhanced robot. In the Rally series, teams will be building tanks, “off-road” suspension robots, and design their own steerable robot. Let’s go forward in thinking by building in reverse. Students will be provided with a creative tool kit to design their bots! Students will be introduced in the first 5 weeks basic engineering concepts and create simple builds in weeks 6-14. LEGO Technic pieces that come together to create movable, steerable, controlled robots. Students will engage in a group four with assigned roles that rotate weekly. Instructor – He or she reads the out the parts needed for the builds. Engineer - He or she will look for the parts that the instructor reads out loud. Builder – He or she is responsible for building the robot. Cross Checker - He or she helps the builder and gets to drive the robot.
