The many opportunities provided by new technology are largely used to help solve issues that an organisation or consumer is having – streamlining processes, improving efficiency, enhancing customer experience, and ultimately increasing revenue.
However that same technology can be applied to help remedy a variety of wider challenges facing society, from healthcare to environmental sustainability – and technology leaders can play an important part in driving that change through innovative thinking and collaboration.

All the Tools You Need to Succeed
Identify an environmental issue that may be resolved using autonomous robots to capture data or have a physical impact on the outcome.
Can the BBC Micro:bit or Raspberry Pi be program as an autonomous robot to address the problem?activity If you get really stuck for ideas, you may select from one of the suggestions on the 'Management' page. |
Select a device and begin planning your robot design.
Make sure you clearly state the intended outcome for your robot and how it will have a positive affect on the environment. Create a prototype and testing station for your design. |
