Got ‘Bot?

Once again immersing students between the ages of 9-17 into the underwater world of robotics, the 2010 Aquatic Robotics Program sponsored by Chevron, SeaTrepid, and Southeastern was a great success! Many thanks to them, our visiting speaker from SeaBotix, and to C-Innovation for hosting our group at their wonderful facility. Also thanks to our volunteers who helped make this camp such a success!

This program included construction of an underwater robot by each student, visits from a SeaBotix ROV operator,  and field trips to ROV facilities such as Sea Trepid and C-Innovation.  To Register for the 2011 Aquatic Robotics Program, contact education coordinator Stephanie Imel at educator@lpbmm.org.
