The Community College Summer Robotic Camp is set to run from June 24 through the 27th at the
Career and Technical Education Center campus at the Prescott airport. The program is free and runs from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. each day. The camp admits 16 students to attend the camp from the applications it received earlier this year .
Working in teams, students will build ROVs. Remote Operated Vehicles (ROVs) are underwater robots that are piloted from the surface. Each team will design and build a ROV to complete an assigned underwater mission. All campers will also have the opportunity to operate one of the college’s six FANUC LR-Mate industrial robots.
