From the project

Open Source Turtle Robot

Open Source Turtle Robot (OSTR) -------------------------------

I designed this project for a 10-hour workshop for ChickTech.org whose goal is to introduce teenage women to STEM topics. The goals for this project were:

- Easy to build. - Easy to program. - Did something interesting. - Low-cost so participants could take it home and continue to learn.

Robotics is the exciting intersection of a number of engineering fields including mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer science. This project was designed to make learning about these fields accessible and exciting.
