Space Technology Applications on Earth Robotics (STAOE Robotics)

The Space Technology Applications on Earth (STAOE) Robotics project will give students the opportunity to work individually or as part of a team to explore how robotic technology systems that are being developed for and used by the space industry are being used on Earth and are having an increasingly significant impact of their daily lives and future career opportunities.

Aims

The Aims of the STAOE programme are that learners will:

·         Work as part of a team or individually to design and build a remotely-controlled robotic system

·         Work as part of a team or individually to research the digital technology-based systems that are being developed and increasingly being used in the advanced manufacturing, construction, design and engineering sectors

·         Find out about how robotic technology is transforming career opportunities across the advanced manufacturing, design, engineering and construction sectors

·         Engage online with professionals, apprentices and HE students from the space, advanced manufacturing, engineering, construction, design, who will talk to them about career opportunities and the benefits of higher education, higher and degree apprenticeships across these sectors
