Session description

Welcome to the year 2040 on Mars! Despite our futuristic setting, we still face day-to-day challenges just like back on Earth. Today, we have three key issues to tackle on the red planet. First off, we need to figure out our energy consumption on Mars. Then, we must address the melting ice fields when the sun's heat intensifies. Lastly, we have to extinguish a fire at our fuel storage unit. During this interactive lesson, participants will have the opportunity to collaborate and engage in critical thinking as we work together to solve these problems. Attendees will experience how Kai's Clan Robotics brings the lesson to life using augmented and virtual reality. Let's embark on this learning journey together and explore innovative solutions for a sustainable life on Mars!
