Experience Activity Contents
    [Emergency Alarm Sound]
  • In case of emergency, press the button to make a siren sound. Make your own model electronics using this system and take a closer look at the principle of two transistors being applied to the amplification of oscillating sound from a speaker.
  • Features: Sirens for civil defense training as a warning signal when an emergency emerges.
  • Principle: When the PB9 ON/OFF switch is pressed and released while the DC9V power is applied to the circuit, bias voltage is applied to the base of the NPN transistor, the phase of the input signal is changed by 180 degrees and power amplified. The low frequency sound is output to the speaker. Part of the signal continues to oscillate by the positive feedback to the base of the NPN transistor through capacitor, and an electrolytic capacitor is connected to make the sound of siren sound.

 

 

Experience Activity Contents
    [My own candle]
  • Let's learn about the principle that main component candles combine with oxygen to turn into CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H20 (water).
  • A candle is a solid consisted of C (carbon), H (hydrogen), O (oxygen).
    When you light the wick of candle, a solid candle is melted.
    At the same time, we can see that the liquid is created.
    Candles that have turned into liquids rise up through the wick, which binds quickly with oxygen due to heat, and water and carbon dioxide become gaseous.

This competition is where future science and technology talents can use robots to develop their dreams of science and engineering, and to develop their ability to solve problems on their own initiative.

 

Automata Makers Competition
Automata means 'figure or sculpture that is moved by simple mechanism'. Automata, which can express various movements by utilizing various mechanical elements, is an engineering artwork that can easily understand the motion principle of machine and can raise artistic imagination. 'Automata Maker' is a contest where students can express creativity, artistry, problem solving skills, and high thinking ability by expressing a given topic using various mechanical elements.

 

3D Printing Maker Competition
3D printer, called a manufacturing revolution, is being used in a variety of fields from manufacturing to bio, new materials, and aerospace, and is a new technological field that has grown beyond its limit. The 3D Printing Maker Competition is a contest to model works based on a given theme using creative ideas and to output them directly using a 3D printer. Students will be able to raise their sense of accomplishment and to develop design ability, and 3D printing skills while realizing various ideas through this competition.

 

Convergence Maker Debate Competition
As the era of artificial intelligence approaches, many people seem to be preparing for the Neo-Luddite movement. As history tells us, our future will be bridging conflicts between destructors and producers wisely and drawing well-off future. However, some disagree. Not long ago, the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the World Health Organization (WHO) mentioned that the impact of new technology development and the impact of globalization causes workers' mental illness. Through this competition, young people who prepare for the future era will develop their ability to communicate reasonably, think creatively and critically, and expand flexibility and tolerance to accept and sympathize with others.
