CS Coastal Hub Workshop - Programming with Sphero Bolt

This workshop is designed to introduce you to the world of robotics programming using the Sphero Bolt, an amazing spherical robot that provides endless possibilities for learning and creativity.

During this workshop, users will learn how to program the Sphero Bolt using block-based coding, with a small glimpse at the text-based coding option. Participants will explore basic programming concepts and how to apply them to create various movements and behaviors of the robot including using lights and sounds.

We will also cover some advanced topics such as using sensors to detect obstacles, which serves as a basic introduction to artificial intelligence, Students will experience this programming with a hands-on experience and an opportunity to apply these programming concepts to their own creative goals.
