Droyd

Droyd will have electric ride-on bikes and tricylces for ages 3 and up. Ideally, there would be a demo area near us for kids to ride and learn about electric toys.

Izobrulo Polylight Art

**HeartHug** is a celebration of the embrace, it is a visualisation of a hug between two or more people, broadcasted for all to see. When two or more spectators hug beneath the sculpture, the heart lights up with a full spectre (rainbow). If one or more people stands without a hug, only half of HeartHug shines with just one random colour of spectre.

Treobytes

1. Drones - Tent for drones with net. Participants can test their piloting skills (possibility of changing it to a robot instead of drones) 2. Treobytes Projects Showcase & 3D printer: Participants can control a small robot and play with some of our latest Arduino projects. 3. Hands-on project: Participants can put together a small laser-cut toy and test it.

Northrop Grumman

Stop by the Northrop Grumman booth to learn how we are defining possible. We design, develop, build and support some of the world’s most advanced products. Whether it’s making a 200 ton airplane invisible, predicting cyber attacks before they happen or solving the mysteries of the universe. STEM Activities: Slime station and build a propeller powered paper plane to take home.

FRC Team 2485 - the W.A.R Lords

The W.A.R. Lords are from Francis Parker School in San Diego, California. As part of our FIRST® involvement, we are dedicated to spreading our message about STEM and robotics on a national and international scale. We will bring our 125 lb robot to the event and show the design, coding, driving and competition process to hope to encourage others to get involved with FIRST robotics.

San Diego State University

Student clubs and outreach organizations from San Diego State University will provide engaging and interactive demonstrations and activities for students and families of all ages. From rocket launches and racecars to marine animals and sound waves, audiences will learn directly from SDSU students in science and engineering about their favorite subjects.

DPR Construction

We are planning to present a hands-on virtual reality experience (using DPR Construction’s own kid-friendly cardboard headsets) that lets visitors, using their own cell phones, follow a URL to a real 3D Building Information Model hosted in the Cloud. The general experience is meant to demonstrate how technology helps our teams bring 2D construction plans to life. We also have some kid-friendly activities such as scavenger hunts and clash detection searches that we can have them participate in, depending on timing.

SYSTRA IBT

Test your knowledge of bridges as our engineers demonstrate the concepts of bridge engineering using scale models built with K'NEX blocks. Visitors will discover how bridges are designed and built and learn how they, too, can become bridge engineers.

Urban Discovery Schools

Student and staff representatives will showcase their interactive Exhibition design challenge that focuses on an environmental issue in California. The students will engage the audience in a recyclable sorting game, as well as present their proposals and prototypes on how to combat the environmental issue. The presentation will demonstrate the Design Thinking process.
