Sean and Mark play with Robots!

Meet Sean! Sean LOVES robots! And he is one of the most curious 10-year-olds we have met. We were so excited to introduce him Mark at CapSen Robotics!

Sean and Mark had a great time touring CapSen and meeting Mark's coworkers! Sean loved learning about the robot that Mark is working to program. Sean had LOTS of questions for Mark! Mark talked about their development process and everything they have to do in order to get a robotics product ready for their client!

​They even got to check out the 3D Printer and printed a turtle and an alien!

Sean can't wait to head back to CapSen again soon for more robot fun!

Gabe the Science Guy!

5/11/2018

Meet Gabe - an energetic and social kid with an unquenchable thirst for all things related to science and building. He is currently in a S.T.E.M. (science, technology, engineering, and math) elementary school.

We met Gabe after he had a minor setback and was an inpatient at the hospital with a fever. He was almost literally bouncing off of the walls. We were happy to entertain him with a game of Jenga (one of his favorites) and a long discussion on everything going on outside his hospital window. Since that initial meeting, we have enjoyed visiting him during his clinic visits and taking trips to the Science Center and The Children’s Museum.​

We hope to introduce Gabe to some robotics role models soon!
