Boosting Engineering Science and Technology, know as BEST, is a national and internationally known program for middle and high school students to build robots. Here is how they define themselves:
Take plywood and a box filled with items such as PVC pipe, screws and other hardware, an irrigation valve cover, piano wire, aluminum paint grid, a bicycle inner tube, a BRAIN (BEST Robotics Advanced Instruction Node programmable platform), and something called a micro-energy chain system and try, within six weeks, to design and build a functioning machine that can perform certain, specific tasks in three minutes. What do you get?
sounds pretty neat, but how do I get involved? It easy, if your school doesn’t already have a team, start one! The BEST Robotics season is just starting. What are you waiting for?Go here to visit BEST’s website and register today!
