The Silly String Advanced Deployment Device
The Silly String Advanced Deployment Device Learning Lab will engage middle school students with a creative approach to engineering, networking, and programming—using a small, personal computer to remotely activate a Silly String Launcher. Lab: 1 full-day session or 2 half-day sessions. .
Mobile Learning Lab Programs
Our dynamic Mobile Learning Lab offerings cover a range of topics, including:
Silly String Launcher
Roll up your sleeves and get ready to experience the Silly String Advanced Deployment Device. This is a device built at ¶¶Òõpro that allows you to launch Silly String remotely. All it takes is a bit of programming, engineering, electronics and 3D printing.
Mobile Welding Unit
Learn more about the world of welding. Safety equipment provided. Welders join metal parts using a tool that generates intense heat. Welders will use either a computer to remotely control equipment or hand-held equipment to cut or join metal parts, fill a hole or fix seams in metal.
Robotic Arm
Fire up a robotic arm, created at ¶¶Òõpro. A robotic arm is a machine programmed and designed to perform specific tasks efficiently and precisely. The work of a robotic arm is largely driven by a motor and is used in different industrial sectors.
Weather Station
Experience first-hand what it’s like to work at a weather station. Weather experts have various specialties, such as: measuring atmospheric properties (such as temperature and windspeed), using computer models that analyze meteorological data, and conducting research to improve understanding of weather phenomena.
