Outreach

Through our outreach, we have shared hands-on STEM experiences with more than 500 students. We love inviting people to try driving or operating our robot: the excitement of making it move can spark curiosity in kids and adults alike. Every conversation is a chance to show that engineering and robotics are for everyone.

2026–27 Summer Season · Hilton Kids Day

At Hilton Kids Day, we introduced young visitors to robotics, explained how our robot works, and encouraged them to try it for themselves. Hands-on demos brought kids and adults together to ask questions, experiment, and imagine what they could build.
