Body Forward

Some hints for next year's challenge have been released:

TAGLINE: “Engineering Meets Medicine”

TEASER: Can FIRST® LEGO® League Teams improve our quality of life? Through the 2010 Body Forward™ Challenge, 9 to 14 year olds will explore the cutting-edge world of Biomedical Engineering to discover innovative ways to repair injuries, overcome genetic predispositions, and maximize the body's potential, with the intended purpose of leading happier and healthier lives.

Look intriguing! One thing I like about this program is that I get to learn something new with every new season.

Just a reminder that the "Cow Town Throw Down" (link) is this Saturday on the Cerner Campus. This is not an official BVMS team event but I will be going up there after our meeting Saturday so let me know if you plan to go and I can show your student some of the big bots up close.

We will be doing detailed work on robot missions and robot designs for the next few weeks. Feel free to come to a meeting and see what we are up to!
