About the Workshop
Join the DaVinci Challenge: Build a Drone workshop for a memorable learning adventure, where you can create, test, and operate your own quadcopter. During the workshop, students will be required to maintain a build log to document their progress and lectures. Additionally, each team will conduct research on a flying creature and present their findings on its unique flying abilities. Don't miss out on this exciting opportunity!
Our goal is to open up pathways to new technologies and experiences to help teachers and students gain the skills they need to succeed in the future.
Objective 1: Engage in a hands-on workshop where participants construct, program, and operate a fully autonomous drone. Gain a comprehensive understanding of flight mechanics, hardware and software integration, and programming essentials to calibrate and conduct flight tests.
Objective 2: Receive training on manual drone flight and mastering the execution of fully autonomous missions using Mission Planner software. Develop the skills necessary to confidently operate drones in various scenarios.
Objective 3: Explore the wide range of drone applications and engage in discussions about mission-oriented drone projects. Learn how sensors and computer vision can be integrated to solve real-world challenges, paving the way for innovative solutions.
We highly encourage team participation, but you can register as a single participant. Register for an immersive experience. You must bring your own Windows Laptop with Mission Planner Software installed. The drone will be yours to keep!Â
Age 13+ or Age 10+ with a team member who is at least 16 years old.
