Discovery Hall’s newest remotely operated vehicle (ROV) program, Go ROVing!, brings ROVs from our facility to yours! This free loaner program is designed for teachers, STEM instructors, and robotics coaches across the state of Alabama who are interested in diving into ROVs with their students. Kits contain all the materials needed to build ROVs with their students as we recognize that some educators might prefer to try it out before investing while others may not have the financial resources to bring this amazing STEM activity to their students.
The classroom kit has all the parts necessary for 6 teams of students to build and fly ROVs except the water! Each classroom set includes 6 pre-wired control units (controller, tether, motors), an assortment of PVC to build the ROV frames, buoyancy materials, and pool mission ‘props’, and access to a guidebook. In addition, educators may request to borrow power sources, power source adapters, extension cords, or even a pool, as needed
