Join us to create a small robot of your own! Bristlebots are are small robots made up of a motor and the head of a toothbrush. Bristlebots are a fun way to learn about basic engineering, motors, circuits, and principals of balance. Experiment to find the best way for them to move! STEP has also competed in a VEX Robotics competition this year, winning the 3rd place prize! Come talk with the students who created it, learn about their process, and observe how it functions!
