We are trying to organise a competition for schools, yrs 8 & 9, programming Flowcode Buggy robots using flowchart programming to best complete a task. We aim to hold the competition in May 2014. The objective is for industry to sponsor their local schools to buy the buggy & software, potentially with some assistance from the IET, we will also offer some basic training on the tools for teachers involved.
The Flowcode system lets you build a program using flowcharts, which create real 'C' code that runs on the PIC Micro at the heart of the buggy.
Comments, suggestions, offers of help or sponsorship?
