Date: 17/01/2022

This video gives a glimpse of the Convention Hall in which avatars can learn more about the metaverse, 3D modeling, coding, game design, drones, and FIRST LEGO League. FIRST LEGO League is an international STEM program for young people in grades K-8th.  Using robotics as a tool, young people become innovators and problem solvers preparing to solve real world problems. Visit http://www.suncoastfll.org for more information. 

FrameVR was used to showcase the robotics game because spectators were limited due to Covid precautions.  This FrameVR view was shared on Facebook Live so that anyone could witness the robotics teams.  Additionally, avatars could enter http://framevr.io/scfcodingacademy and see the live robot games on the streaming screens.  FrameVR is created by Virbela and is a great tool for education, collaboration, and fun in virtual reality.  No headsets required.

Suncoast FIRST LEGO League gives special thanks to State College of Florida and our premiere sponsor Suncoast Credit Union.  Additional thanks to Sofwerx, Mosaic, FUNducation, SCF Coding Academy, 26 West, TechPlayzone, and the Florida High Tech Corridor for their continued support of teams, volunteers, inkind donations, and space to host our events.
