THE LEGO FUN HAS BEEN DOUBLED!!
This is great stuff, Kiwi. If we ever teach schoolboys these things *, I'd deffo recommend this type of approach.

Michael Faraday would be so proud! :D
Excellent find Anon, thanks. Cheers. :^)

* Maybe hold yearly "Robotics Week" competitions at the robowaifu factory(s); for private boy's schools during their Summer breaks? Something similar to what NASA does
(or did...not sure now)?
<--->
If we ever actually do go this route, then a 'Robot Design & Engineering Class' curriculum suited to students should be developed by us prior-to. We should make multi-tiered (based on the number of parts, manuals, tools, instruments, &tc., included) classroom kits available for schools to purchase; which teachers can then use during the preceding school year -- so that the boys would have their team's robots all assembled & ready to compete during the big week at the factory. Interested & qualified factory staff could be given free time during the school year, to engage remotely & regularly with the teachers & classes ahead-of-time, as consultants to help guide their team's projects to success.
Trophies & other prizes for the winning school's teams in various categories. Rando giveaways. Special rates & accommodations for qualified Boy's Homes. Big wrapup party+concert. Swag for
everyone. In a word:
treat these kids like kings during that week! :^)
<--->
I do not want 'Terminatorz-R-Us' -type sh*te to be within the yearly contest themes!! Rather, let's make it about navigating Anon's flat (or the outdoors); doing the dishes by hand properly (or laundry, &tc.); recognizing/responding properly to rapidly-changing (surprising) environments; timed obstacle-course events; &tc., &tc.

Similar to all the nominal stuff we here are
already aiming to accomplish.
We can also throw in lots of AI-related and other things for their robots to demonstrate. Stuff like eloquent TTS<->STT, artistry, logic-puzzles, animal-care, gardening, monitoring & cataloging plantlife & wildlife, weaving & crafts, music-making
(NAME MY BAND!! :DD, &tc., to flavor things up a bit. Kind of a
Country Fair type scenario such as our own
@Mechnomancer (and myself; possibly others here) might relish. Simply be creative ourselves, and always take recommendations from the schoolboys, the parents, & the schools for suggested improvements to the competitions. Everything recorded & edited together nicely after the fact -- with good soundtracks -- to serve as propaganda for the
next year's big event! :D
<--->
We can entice the schools & parents towards the project by us thereafter helping particularly-talented young men network to get placements in realworld jobs (not least of which could be
our own firm's jobs!) Ofc, other interested companies can come alongside as Platinum-tier, Gold-tier, &tc. corporate sponsors (no
(((military))) horsesh*te, ofc)...once the event took off. We could set up a free jobs fair for the lads right outside the competition arena venue. Various qualified Unis, as well could engage there.
