ROBOT LAB 2

Introductory Robotics Programming
SainSmart 5-DOF Humanoid Robotic Arm Left & Right Hand with Servo for Robot US
Recommended age 8+. Adults are welcome too.
    

Cadets do not need to be familiar with Basic Programming Concepts or have any Programming Experience. We will Teach from the fundamentals and up!
In this three day Course, Cadets will learn how to write Computer Code to make a Robot perform various Tasks assigned by the Commandant. The results will be used for future Research and Development by the Science, Technology, Engineering, Artistic & Mathematics Research Team.

Adafruit 16-Channel PWM/Servo HAT for Raspberry Pi - Mini Kit (2327)

The Raspberry Pi is a wonderful little computer, but one thing it isn't very good at is controlling DC Servo Motors - these motors need very specific and repetitive timing pulses to set the position. Instead of asking the Pi Linux kernel to send these signals, pop on this handy HAT! It adds the capability to control 16 Servos with perfect timing. It can also do PWM up to 1.6 KHz with 12 bit precision, all completely free-running.

The Adafruit 16-Channel 12-bit PWM/Servo HAT will drive up to 16 servos or PWM outputs over I2C with only 2 pins. The on-board PWM controller will drive all 16 channels simultaneously with no additional Raspberry Pi processing overhead. What's more, you can stack up to 62 of them to control up to 992 servos - all with the same 2 pins!

Best of all, we even have a Python library you can use, so you'll be up and running instantly, to make your robotic creation com to life. The Adafruit PWM/Servo HAT is the perfect solution for any project that requires a lot of servos or PWM outputs!

Each order comes with a Servo HAT, a 2-pin terminal block, four 3x4 headers and a 2x20 socket header. You'll need to do some light through-hole soldering to attach the headers onto the HAT circuit board, but its easy to do with basic soldering tools like a soldering iron and rosin core electronics solder. If you would like to stack multiple HATs onto one Pi, you can also pick up a 2x20 stacking header and a set of right-angle 3x4 headers that should be soldered on instead.

Registration will open on Tuesday, Feb 2, 2020 at 10:00 am EDT. Paypal e-transfers are a sure way to have your registration secured. We accept in person, Credit and Debit Cards and Cash.

Class Size
There are limited Seats for each Course. We will close the Registration as soon as we've reached capacity.

Goals
This course is a part of teaching coding and technology literacy to age specific groups. We are committed to providing a safe and fun for learning and sharing environment for all.

Want to get involved?
Section 31 provides an opportunity for Tech Talent to contribute to the Knowledge Economy, within our supportive Community, sharing their Skills and inspiring new Generations of STEAM Professionals. Our Community and Mentors will Self-Seed: as Novices gain Knowledge they will in turn be able to Encourage, and Teach others. We are actively Recruiting Instructors and Volunteers. There are many ways to get involved, just Contact us to express your interest.


CANCELLATION POLICY 

If we Cancel a Course or Session, all Participants will be notified by Email. Participants may choose to transfer a Registration to another Course, if desired.

Our Instructors and Mentors bring a wealth of Experience with Technology: they work as Programmers, Technical Designers, Teachers and Trainers. They all share a common goal: to help create a sustainable division within the  STEAM Community, while maintaining the values of Starfleet.

Class Cancellation Policy We Reserve the Right to Cancel this Course if we do not reach our minimum Class Size required. In the event of a Cancellation, you will be notified 5 days in advance.

Cancellations should be received more than 5 days before the start of the course. If you have to cancel anytime after the first class, please notify us immediately.

If you aren't satisfied with the course for any reason, we want to know about it and make it right!
