Students from 4 Belfast Schools unite for Decode Robotics Challenge at W5

The robotics competition, called Decode, involves teams designing, building and programming robots to compete in an alliance format against other teams, in W5, Belfast. Competition participants learn engineering skills and work collaboratively to solve problems. The challenge is focused on unlocking the mysteries of the world’s artifacts through strategy, innovation, and teamwork.

Students are looking forward to having the support of an engineer at a future session, who will introduce them to essential design principles and guide their creative process.
