June 25-June 29: Robotics

Do you want a vast army of mechanical minions to do your bidding? Well, that’s too expensive, but what about one little robot that you can control? We can handle that! Learn the basics of the coding and wiring that it takes to create artificial intelligence that can move and react to the world around it.

July 16-20: Video Game Design 

Most kids want to spend their summers playing video games, but some kids actually want to spend their summer making video games and we can help! Learn how to create everything about a video game world from the types of plants down to the gravity of your planet. Then, create 3D models of characters, cars, houses, and more, and add these into your game.

July 30- Aug 3: 3D Print and Laser

A big part of what we do here at The Innovation Hub is make products for people on our 3D printers and laser cutters. Now you can learn how to use these same machines that our production staff use on a daily basis! Learn 3D modeling and sculpting, and how to print them on our 3D printers. Learn to create specialized vector graphics and run them on our laser cutters. Learn how to get a design from in your mind to in your hands!
