A team of St. Vrain Valley high schoolers who use underwater robots to help Longmont monitor water quality are getting extra help this summer from middle school students attending a “Creative Technology for Good” camp.
The Innovation Center student designers, who are helping the city look for unwanted weeds in water reservoirs using underwater robots, designed the camp curriculum to outsource some of their projects, including a water level monitor, a 15-minute timer for a pressure seal test and a warning system in case boat or robot bumps into something.
