Fun Fact: Although we had a pretty clear idea of all the functions we could include it was a real challenge to incorporate them using only the parts of the LEGO set. From a design standpoint we also wanted to have all the control handles on one side so it’s easier to adjust and play with it.
As many of you may have already experienced, building GBCs is not just about building a machine, it’s also a lot about technique and physics. Within the GBCs different aspects of physics (eg. forces, torques and gearings) are used to obtain the different modules. To involve people in this extra ‘level’ of the GBCs, we organize STE(A)M (Science, Technology, Engineering, (Arts) and Mathematics) Education Workshops. Depending on the audience (eg. friends, schools, companies), the focus of the workshop shifts to match and optimize both the learning proces and fun!
