Recap of our amazing MIT Robotics Lab Trip

Hello Everyone!

I wanted to share that we had an AMAZING experience visiting the MIT Robotics lab. We were hosted by Dr. Randi Williams, who led AusomeTech students through an activity where they learned about Robotics at MIT, and even got to program JIBO - a social emotional friendly and FUNNY robot. We got to see first hand where SCRATCH and other awesome scientific inventions are created, and we learned about the important connection between Art, Science and Technology.

Our visit on Sunday to the MIT Museum was the "icing on the cake" of learning about AI, Robotics, Science and Tech innovations.

Thanks to generous donations from 57 individual donors, family and friends - and TWO major corporate sponsors, we were able to cover the costs of our overnight stay, group dinner for 18 and our travel.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH for supporting our campaign.
