With an increased interest in robotics in the engineering industry, EGR 150 introduces robotics to NCC students. Students learn robotic basics and are challenged to design robot navigation schemes, which are judged during\u00a0the BOE-BOT contest. The winning demonstration submitted by Elton Lewis included a Star Wars Death Star battle.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nashccnews.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/DSC_04361.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6084\" src=\"http:\/\/www.nashccnews.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/DSC_04361-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0436\" width=\"620\" height=\"412\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nashccnews.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/DSC_04361-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.nashccnews.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/DSC_04361-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.nashccnews.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/DSC_04361-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>BOE\u2013BOT stands for Board of Education robot.
