The teachers and students involved in this project have participated in robotic events such as RoboParty, “National Festival of Robotics”, Robotop, RoboCup, etc.. Last tree years we participated successfully in the World Champinship RoboCup.We won first place in the category “Robotic Dance Superteam Junior”. We were also honored with the title "Best Entertainment Value" attributed to the team that obtained the greatest public acceptance. Although these awards were obtained in the field of robotic dance, we have also devoted our attention to building robots for other educational purposes, such as the use of robots in Physics and Chemistry laboratory experiments. Guided by teachers, our students have been true researchers in robotics. In our schools we have been working to build autonomous robots. This work involves an interdisciplinary approach that requires knowledge of Electro-mechanics (models of DC motors), Physics (kinematics and dynamics) and Geometry concepts. The actual construction of the robot requires an even broader range of concepts, covering areas such as Control, Instrumentation, Electronics, etc... This makes the construction of small autonomous robots an activity of considerable educational value contributing to consolidation of knowledge acquired by the students during the course.
