Available Curricula for goBILDA
Mechanical Foundations with goBILDA
Mechanical Foundations provides participants with knowledge and hands-on experience using a variety of tools and robotic hardware components. By understanding the foundational mechanical principles that underpin robotics, participants develop the ability to design, construct, and maintain robotic systems with greater confidence and effectiveness.
The course covers structure, power transmission, motion, mechanisms, and drivetrains through hands-on activities using the goBILDA building system and Element-6 Radio Control System.
As part of the SMART Robotics Technician Program, Mechanical Foundations is aligned with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes robotics technicians need to be successful. Mechanical Foundations with goBILDA is a platform-specific version of the Mechanical Foundations curriculum. It follows the same learning objectives and three-unit course sequence as the REV DUO version while using goBILDA structural, motion, and drivetrain components throughout its activities and projects.
