"Robots in the Rough” Adventure Quest

 

From ancient challenges to modern technology, robotics has spurred human curiosity.  Join us on a mission to rebuild Leonardo DaVinci’s mechanical wonders and then zoom through time to build robots that can retrieve lost chemical capsules in the rugged, mountainous terrain of southwest Colorado.  Warning -- the high altitude and the chemical’s strange magnetic properties will cause havoc.  Can you help us in this difficult mission?
