Leominster Robotics is a group of students from Fallbrook and Southeast
Elementary Schools and Samoset Middle School. We are
FIRST LEGO League (FLL) Robotics Teams. We are a group of students
that participate in the
FLL
Robotics Competitions. As members of FLL Teams, we learn to
program and build robots using the LEGO Mindstorms kit to perform tasks.
Students aged 9 to 14 are given the opportunity to design, build, and
program a robot using LEGO bricks, sensors, motors, and gears. This gives
the team members hands-on experience in basic engineering and and computer
programming.
Leominster Robotics Mission:
We seek to empower the youth of our
community through
technology, science and gracious professionalism.
A new challenge is given out every year by FIRST LEGO League
International, consisting of several different tasks to be completed by each
team's LEGO robot. Each team has two minutes and thirty seconds to make
their robot do as many tasks as possible, with each task worth a
predetermined number of points. An award is given to the top-scoring team,
as well as to teams who excel in other categories.
For 2007 -The Challenge
is POWER PUZZLE
Alternative Energy
Resources - Meeting the Global Demand
Explore how energy production and consumption
choices affect the planet and our quality of life today, tomorrow, and for
future generations. Can FIRST LEGO League teams find
the ultimate solution to this global Power Puzzle?
What is FIRST LEGO LEAGUE?
FLL is a result of an exciting alliance between
FIRST and
the
LEGO
Company. Guided by adult mentors and their own imaginations, FLL
students solve real-world engineering challenges, develop important life
skills, and learn to make positive contributions to society. |
