The scheduled tech talk speaker for this month’s DPRG monthly meeting had to reschedule at the last minute. So, our glorious leaders have cooked up something a bit different (and a lot of fun) for this weekend’s meeting.
With details intentionally vague, the event is DPRG’s first “Hack-a-Bot Challenge”.
The concept is simple. You’ll split into teams, be given a goal, work together on the project, and then after a couple hours work and some pizza, we will test your creations in a death-defying contest (for the bot!)
The only heads up I can give is that soldering will probably be required (bring one if you can, we will have a couple on hand otherwise), construction with cardboard, hot glue and duct tape a strong possibility. A few hand tools would also be advised. Microcontrollers will be optional, and 3v will be all the juice your franken-bot gets.
We will live stream as usual for our remote members so that they can enjoy the mayhem.
See you on thw 22nd (Saturday), at 10am at Dallas Maker Space!
Everyone is welcome!
