DESCRIPTION:[]\n\nReady to turn code into motion?\n\nDive into hands-on rob
 otics challenge that takes participants through the process of designing\,
  programming\, and controlling a robotic arm. Participants will explore 3D
  CAD design\, servo motor control\, Arduino programming\, robotic arm kine
 matics\, Raspberry Pi\, and computer vision using OpenCV. Working in teams
  and guided by mentors\, they will integrate these technologies to build a
 nd control a functional robotic system before putting their skills to the 
 test in a final robotics challenge.\n\nCo-sponsored by: IEEE Robotics and 
 Automation Society\n\nAgenda: \nDAY 1 — DESIGN &amp; CONTROL\n1:00 PM – 6:
