Join STEAM Lab, an exciting hands-on program where university students bring STEAM concepts to life by building their own amazing projects over six interactive sessions. In past years, students have created customizable smart mirrors and remote-controlled cars. This Winter Semester, participants will take on the challenge of building fully functioning, Wi-Fi-controlled drones! Throughout the program, students will enhance their skills in electronics, programming, 3D printing, and design—all while getting to keep the incredible projects they create. Don’t miss this opportunity to dive into STEAM and make something extraordinary!
NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED!
Participants must be present at all six sessions to receive their drone
Only 15 spots available!
Overview of the program, introduction to smart mirrors, their uses, and the fundamental STEM concepts involved. Students will explore the components needed for the project and start with the basic setup.
Description: Introduction to 3D printing and its applications. A live demonstration of a 3D printer will be provided, and students will learn how to use TinkerCAD to design custom frames for their smart mirrors.
Description: Students will design their custom frames using TinkerCAD. These designs will be sent for 3D printing, and the printed frames will be brought in for the next session.
Students will assemble their smart mirrors using the 3D printed frames and finalize their customizations. This session will include integrating the chosen plugins and ensuring everything works smoothly.
Students will complete the final testing of their smart mirrors. The session will conclude with a wrap-up celebration, where students can showcase their creations.
February 28, March 7, 14, 17, 21 and 24 (Each session is from 5 to 7 p.m.)
