Robofest 2008

Free Workshop Schedule for Teams

All the workshops will be held at Lawrence Tech. Here is the driving directions to the University in Southfield Michigan. Workshop materials (PPT and program files) will be posted on the web after the workshops.

Every NXTG workshop requires a pre-assembled NXT robot to drive and a laptop with NXTG software installed.  We will be using Light, Touch, and Ultrasonic Sensors during the hands-on workshop. Do not forget to bring the USB cable!
