CALCULATED IMAGINATION!
The theme of 2018’s competition was “Calculated Imagination”, inspired by the movie “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”. Using only the kit of tools and materials provided, students were challenged to build a robot that can grab the golden tickets, lift Oompa-Loompas, and collect golden eggs!
