Robotics
Projects in this category are autonomous machines engineered and programmed by the student from their own concepts and designs, or published drawings/kits.
Devices controlled through direct, real time remote control by the student are not appropriate (ie: remote controlled cars). Once started, the robotics project should operate as a standalone independent machine without human interaction.
Examples of commercially available robotics kits are Lego, K'Nex, Capsella, VEX, and Technics. Student engineered robot designs and concepts are encouraged.

Some programs that may be used include (but are not limited to):
- Capsella
- VEX
- Technics
- LEGO Mindstorms EV3
- Makeblock (w Arduino)
- Dash (younger students)
- Kinex
Kits are fine as long as there is original student design included.
