Robo Builders: Hardware
In this session, you’ll dive into the fundamentals of robot hardware and discover what makes a robot strong and steady. You’ll explore drivetrains, wheelbases, motor placement, and attachment points before building your own working drivetrain. Then, put it to the test by pushing a block in a straight line, compare results with other teams, and see how small tweaks can make a big difference.
