RobotsEAST

RobotsEAST Hey everyone! Welcome to the new RobotsEAST page! Ed., Journalism, and English. The kit contains motors, batteries and the control system.

Introduced in 1996, RobotsEAST provides high school students in the Atlantic Provinces with experience in Engineering, Science, and Technology through building remote-controlled robots. This multidisciplinary competition exploits and advances their knowledge and capability in Mathematics, Physics, Tech. The culmination of the competition is a round-robin tournament that involves four robots (each weighing up to 30 kg) at a time vying for mastery of the playing field to determine the overall winner. RobotsEAST is a non-profit, volunteer-supported event, which is financially supported by registration fees and event sponsorships. To make the competition technically accessible, the core power and control systems of the robots are constructed from a ready-to-use kit of parts supplied by RobotsEAST. The rest of the robot - what makes it unique - is designed by students and constructed from whatever materials they choose. This year, the competition will be held in Halifax, N.S., in the Dalplex fieldhouse on the 3rd and 4th of May, 2013.

In case anyone is looking for Robotics/Technology Summer Camps: There are Artech Robotics Summer Camps. You can find them at http://www.artechcamps.com/ They have locations in both Halifax and Lahave. They seem to have various programmes for children ages 6 to 16. Digital Nova Scotia and the Discovery Centre run summer camps for children 10 to 15. This is the information for last year: http://www.digitalnovascotia.com/digital-discovery-camp/ I would suggest contacting them directly to ask about programmes for the upcoming summer. Bricks 4 Kidz is another possibility for children ages 3 to 13+ (?): http://www.bricks4kidz.com/canada-novascotia-halifax/ Another option is SuperNOVA at Dal: http://www.supernova.dal.ca/camps-descriptions/ They have various camps for grades 1 to 12.

Some photos of the 2012 RobotsEAST Competition, Under Fire! This competition pitted 11 high schools across the Maritimes against each other in an epic struggle to collect white balls (diamonds) while sweeping red, orange, and yellow balls (lava) to other teams, as a volcano actively threw out balls on the playfield.
