On Saturday, April 26th, Retriever Robotics (RR) went to DC to represent UMBC at the US Science and Engineering Festival. CWIT (Center for Women in Technology) and ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) attended on behalf of UMBC as well. Creating marshmallow catapults, teaching children how to drive a robot, chasing random people with a robot (and giving them candy for the trouble)... the UMBC table was a hit! It was also fun seeing all of the other booths and networking with various engineering companies.
Overall, the US Science and Engineering Festival was a blast and we look forward to next year! Keep up the awesome work Retrievers!
