We are progressing a lot in robotics…
But that doesn’t look like a constraint at all for these 6 teenagers, all in high school, and all in more technical courses. “We have a natural attraction for science, whether it’s thanks to our passions, our family, and we joined the association around the same time. It’s great, because we progress a lot in robotics while we all start from different levels. But we are also progressing on other levels, including the English necessary for Robocup”.
Scheduled for Bangkok on July 17, the Robocup 2022 awaits Arthur, Matteo, Etienne, Paul, who will be the 4 representatives of the project. But they too are waiting for the Robocup with great impatience! “It’s going to happen fast now!” ». They still have part of the budget to complete. “It’s expensive to go there… Roughly speaking, we estimated the trip at 2,500 euros per person. Fortunately, we are supported by the City of Pau, by local businesses, by the association, and many other structures that do not only help us financially.”. Not to mention them: The New Aquitaine Education League, the New Aquitaine Region, the Caisse des Dépôts, Optic 2000, Sweetside, and the Helioparc, main sponsor of the project and host of the latter.
An online kitty is available if you want to help these budding engineers make ends meet to represent France, New Aquitaine, Béarn, Pau, Thailand. And following ? “We are in Terminale, so we are all going to schools far from Pau next year. We will no longer be in the association, but a new team will be formed and a new project will be set up. It is important that robotics be transmitted and that l’association Elektrons Libres continues to participate in events of the style ».
And we, we meet as soon as possible to give you the results of the Robocup 2022, hoping to announce excellent news…
