Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure, Tenth Grade, Robotics Science Projects (20 results)

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs) are a blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all.
These projects explore topics key to Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure: Build resilient infrastructure, promote sustainable industrialization and foster innovation.
Robots are made to go and do what humans either can not, or do not want to do. They are used in hundreds of ways from exploring Mars, to working tirelessly on a manufacturing line, to providing companionship. Not to mention they make great movie characters!

Make a Biohybrid Robot
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
When you think of robots, you might think of things made out of plastic or metal...but what about living materials? Living materials have one big advantage: they can heal and repair themselves if they get damaged. Since it might not always be easy to repair a damaged robot (for example, a robot on another planet), some scientists want to figure out how to include living, or biological, materials in them to create "biohybrid" robots. In this project, you will create your own simple biohybrid… Read more
Build a Miniature Self-Driving Car
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
How do self-driving cars stay on the road? How do vehicles with autonomous or driver-assist features automatically brake, steer around obstacles, or perform tasks like adaptive cruise control? Experiment with these behaviors and more in this science project as you build and program your own autonomous Arduino robot. Read more
Build an Arduino Walking Robot
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
Plenty of animals, like dogs and horses, can walk and run on four legs, but what about robots? Sometimes legs are better than wheels—try out this project to design and build your own quadruped walking robot! Read more
Build a Model Planetary Lander with Arduino
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
Imagine that you need to make sure valuable cargo — like a robot or even human astronauts — can land safely on Mars. How would you do it? In this project, you will build your own model planetary lander using an Arduino. It will use a distance sensor and automatically deploy landing gear before impact. Can you avoid a crash landing?

Build a Zippy Line-following Robot (BlueBot Project #3)
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
How easy is it for you to walk along and follow a line that is painted on the ground? Simple, right? You might be able to follow a line without giving it much thought, but how could a robot do that? In this project, you will build your own automatic line-following robot that can race around a track that you create. This technology has plenty of real-world applications—maybe one day you could help design self-driving cars! Read more
How to Control a DIY Mini Drone with an Arduino™
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
Most drones fly with a mix of human input and autonomous control based on feedback from electronic sensors. This allows the drone to fly up and down when the human operator presses a joystick on a controller, but automatically hover at a fixed distance above the ground when the operator lets go of the joystick. In this project, you will explore drone programming with an Arduino. What types of inputs and sensors can you make your drone respond to? What behaviors and responses can you program… Read more
How Fast is Automatic Braking?
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
How fast can a human driver react and hit the brakes when there is an obstacle in the road? Can autonomous cars react more quickly and make the road safer for everyone? In this project you will build your own Arduino robot and test human braking versus automatic braking as the robot drives toward an obstacle at full speed. Read more
Build an Obstacle-Avoiding Robot (BlueBot Project #4)
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
In the animal kingdom, many different critters use whiskers to help them find their way around in the dark, through murky waters, or even to help them hunt prey. Whiskers can be very useful when the animals cannot rely on sight. Did you know that you can also build a robot that uses "whiskers" to find its way around? This project will show you how to build a simple robot that uses whiskers as "bump sensors" to help the robot detect when it is about to bump into an obstacle, so it can turn… Read more
Make Soft Robotic Skin
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
When you think about robots, do you think of something made from metal? What if robots could have stretchy, flexible skin just like humans? How would they detect when someone tapped them on the shoulder or something rubbed against their arm? In this project, you will learn how to make artificial robotic skin using flexible rubber with an embedded conductive fabric. You can also connect the artificial skin to a microcontroller and use it to control outputs like LEDs or motors.  Read more
A Robot Waiter That Can Carry Drinks
Science Fair Project Idea
Engineering Design Process
Have you ever seen a waiter balance an entire tray of drinks without spilling any? How do they do it? Do you think you could build a robot waiter that can do the same thing? In this project, you will learn how to build a self-balancing robotic tray. You can incorporate the auto-leveling tray into one of our many other robotics projects, like the Bluebot or robotic arm.
