Micromelon Robotics attended the Queensland Computers STEM Demo Day in Bundaberg, setting up alongside MakerHero to showcase the full Micromelon platform to regional Queensland educators.
|
|
|
|
The demo day gave teachers from schools across the Wide Bay-Burnett region the chance to get hands-on with the Rover, try out the Code Editor's blocks-to-Python progression, and drive through wooden maze courses set up on the venue floor. Events like these are especially valuable for regional schools that may not have easy access to STEM education providers or the opportunity to trial robotics platforms before purchasing.

Micromelon's commitment to supporting schools outside of South East Queensland is a core part of the company's mission. Regional demo days help bridge the gap between metropolitan and rural schools when it comes to access to quality STEM education tools and resources.
