Professional Activities
Lego Rovers is a fun, engaging activity for schools-aged children to teach them the challenges of space exploration. Children get to navigate their own space rover, see the effect of the time delay between the Earth, the moon and Mars, and experiment with the effect of different rules and automation options.
It is taken to schools in the North West area via the STEM Ambassador Scheme, and was used as a basis for a challenge in the NASA 2013 Space Apps Hackathon.
Lego Rovers was developed by Dr. Louise Dennis from Centre for Autonomous Systems Technology and the Department of Computer Science at the University of Liverpool.Lego Rovers
