Synopsis

Children the world over learn about technology through robotics competitions organized around LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3. These competitions represent a large, grass-roots movement supported by enthusiastic volunteers. There are 233,000 participants as of January 2016, and they are divided into some 29,000 teams competing in 1350 events held in 80 countries. Winning Design! is written by a long-time coach and event volunteer as a way to impart his knowledge of successful design patterns, especially of those patterns that are helpful when used in competitive events. No leader or team will want to be without the information in this book and the edge that it potentially gives them in competition.
