All is set for the fourth annual Techfest at Birmingham City University. On Saturday 28 June 2014, the University will be host to a celebration of technology, engineering and science.
As with previous events there will be a variety of activities during the day which is expected to include robotics contests for mini-sumo, line-followers, wall-followers, drag-racers and, of course, the UK international micromouse contest.
Students will have projects on display and there will be support from professional bodies and commercial sponsors. Rapid Electronics will be displaying the Aldeberan Nao robot which simply has to be seen to be fully appreciated. Ask it to sing you a song.
You can find out more about the Nao robot on Rapid’s dedicated Aldebaran Nao pages
You can get full details and register for the contests (it is free) at the Birmingham City University Techfest site:
