Radio and Robots!


Social Robotics – Friday, October 12th, 3-5pm
Learn about how robots “sense, plan and act”. Come to a special workshop presented by a team from the University of Albany’s College of Computing and Information on Friday, October 12th from 3-5pm. The Social Robotics Program is an interactive presentation about making robots to help with social tasks. Kids will interact with actual robots and engage in thought exercises about how to design a robot for a task of their choosing. The aim of the program is to introduce students to the future roles of robots in our society and create excitement about the possibilities of working with technology. Ages 8 and up.
