The MINDS-i Drone Gimbal Rig gives you the ability to pilot the MINDS-i UAV in a safe and controlled environment. The preassembled rig allows you to introduce flight controls and best practices to anyone, regardless of skill level or age. With the Gimbal Rig’s 3-Axis system, you have the full-motion capabilities of the UAV at your fingertips. The MINDS-i Gimbal Rig is an excellent fit in a classroom, trade show, or convention.
The programmable UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) elicit a “wow” reaction while teaching programming, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and aerodynamics. Contain the action with the MINDS-i UAV Drone Gimbal Rig.
Stabilize the drone autonomously while also responding to the pilot’s commands.
Send and receive real-time data between the UAV and computer to monitor vital data, including GPS location, orientation, battery voltage and amperage draw.
The Catapult Lab is a great entry point to the MINDS-i system. The provided exercises focus on the creative build process, data collection and the PDSA cycle (Plan, Do, Study, Act) used in the industry for decades, for design engineering, product troubleshooting & problem-solving.
This fully assembled and programmed robotics breadboard accompanies the MINDS-i Foundations Curriculum. Designed to help teach programming, it allows you and your students to physically interact with the sensors on a stationary platform and can be used as a quick and easy method for checking your students' wiring and code.
Sample the MINDS-i Robotics system and introduce students to the basics of programming, robotics, and engineering. Students construct two robots and experiment with various sensors, actuators, and mechanical elements to perform multiple autonomous tasks. The set includes easy to use visual instructions for building and programming.
By 2018, the U.S. will have more than 1.2 million unfilled jobs in the areas of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) because there will not be enough qualified workers to fill them. STEM is where jobs are today and where the job growth will be in the future.
Through activity-, project-, and problem-based curriculum, our programs give students a chance to apply what they know, identify problems, find unique solutions, and lead their own learning. When students understand how their education is relevant to their lives and future careers, they get excited, and are more successful.
