This summer, our students had the opportunity to build carnival games, 5 of which have been transformed into commercial-grade games by Tronix3D.

At our gala, attendees will see and play the games, meet the students who designed them, and maybe take one home via the live auction.

Standing nearly 4 feet tall, the Booster T1 is an advanced humanoid robot capable of 23 degrees of freedom for realistic movements, including omnidirectional walking and agile maneuvers.
