what we do.
Three programs, all run by volunteers. One event a year, ongoing work with schools, and research with students.
schools
htl project.
Together with the Austrian Federal Ministry of Education, we fund robotics at HTLs, Austria’s technical colleges. Schools get hardware and support to build robotics into their teaching.
science
research.
We publish peer-reviewed papers and have a scientific advisory board. Students work on the research themselves and present it at the ECER conference.
back the next generation.
The competition, the school projects and the research all need people and funding.
