FTC Summer Camp: Chassis Design

Service Description

FTC Summer Camp This summer camp is a 2 week immersive and rigorous experience for rising 7th-12th grade students. At our Academy, we use state of the art components, tools, and host Wold Championship level coaches and mentors. We ensure that every student receives high level engagement in our small class sizes. This camp is great for anyone who has an interest in STEM. Learn Lifelong Skills Set up your child for success by learning a variety of skills and becoming proficient with a multitude of skills such as: Soft Skills Teamwork Communication Critical Thinking Problem Solving Time Managment Hard Skills CAD (Computer Aided Design) Additive Manufacturing (3d Printing) Subtractive Manufacturing (CNC) Java Coding Tools CNC FDM 3D Printers Hand tools Drill Press Band Saw We will be meeting each weekday (Monday-Friday) for a period of two weeks. Drop-off will be 9:00am-9:30am, and pick-up will be 3:30pm-4:00pm. If there are any questions on the specifics of the schedule, please feel free to contact us. There will be two different summer camp sessions. The first one will be July 21-25. The second one will be July 28-Aug 1. They will both be identical and have the same curriculum. Each week is independent from each other but it is highly suggested that you sign up for both in order to get the full experience. Week 1: July 21-25 Students will focus on building a chassis equipped with drive motors and control system. Invite Opportunity This summer camp is a stand alone program separate from the competition season. With that said, the components are the same between the two. It is highly encouraged that anyone wanting to be part of the team for the competitive season attends the summer camp. When filling the teams, we will first look at who participated in the summer camp. LeXT Robo Academy is excited to offer this week long course where students will work together building and programming FIRST Tech Challenge robots. Students will get hands on experience building FTC robots using goBILDA parts, Rev Robotics control systems, programming using Java, exploring 3D modeling on Onshape, 3D printing with BambuLab, as well as CNC Machining parts. During the camp students will be split into teams of 3-4 students to work together building and programming a robot that they will use to compete against the other teams in the camp at the end of the week.
