NAO robotics course – September school holidays
What is NAO?
NAO is a little character with a
unique combination of hardware
and software: it consists of sensors,
motors and software driven by a
dedicated operating system.
NAO gets its magic from its
programming and animation.
The course
The NAO robotics course is designed to
introduce students to programming and
enable them to work closely with these
robots.
Students will be introduced to motion
and sonar sensors, voice recognition
and sound and vision tracking through
hands-on practical activities which will
bring the NAO robots to life.
10 places available. If selected you must
commit to attending each day.
