CyberKids Robotics
Robotics Competition Program
CyberKids Robotics is a non-profit education company dedicated to improving the STEM education of students in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia through our exciting robotics competition program. The CyberKids Robotics Competition Program is a great hands-on learning experience for children in grades four through nine. Children learn team work as well as math, science, computer programming and critical thinking skills in a fun environment. CyberKids’ experienced staff works with your children and prepares them for local, state and national robotics competitions.
Robotics teams consist of four to eight children. Each team works together to solve missions and compete against other teams in their area. Teams have the opportunity to compete on the local, state and national levels.
Each team works together to design and build a robot. They write computer programs to make their robot complete required missions. Competition teams earn points based on how their robot successfully completes required missions. Each team will have 2 ½ minutes during the competition to earn as many points as possible.
CyberKids Robotics provides all the computers, software and robotics equipment needed. Each practice session lasts for one hour and thirty minutes. CyberKids will schedule three hours of robotics practice time per month. A CyberKids coach brings all the required computer and robotics equipment to your school for each practice session. Our coaches and mentors teach your children to design, build and program their competition robots. Each team applies these skills toward competing successfully against other competition teams.
Each team conducts research on a topic that is special to each annual competition. After the research is complete, the team creates a special oral presentation to present to a panel of judges at the robotics competition. The research presentation cannot exceed five minutes in length. All team members must participate in the presentation of the team's research project.
CyberKids' Robotics Competition Program is fun, exciting and very affordable. We will invoice the school or sponsor for all the teams participating in the program. The cost for our Robotics Competition Program is $162 per team per month. This cost covers all the computers, software, robots and practice sessions for the team.
If a team wants to compete in the state robotics championship, there is an additional $235 tournament registration fee that must be paid by September 7th. Also, all teams competing in the state robotics championship are required to participate in a one week robotics camp during the summer.
