FLL No Limits
2004 Theme:
In this year's challenge, FLL teams will find ways to help people with
different levels of physical ability.
Premise:
The dream of a modern society is one of equal access for all. Society as a
whole benefits when creativity, technology and open minds come together to
help make that equality possible for all people, regardless of physical
differences.
Focus:
Many people have difficulty moving or walking, or trouble reading a distant
sign or climbing stairs. The 2004 FLL Challenge is to examine these
seemingly simple tasks in a new light and explore how technology and human
thought can work together to create equal access for all people.
The Challenge:
Each FLL team will build and program a robot that addresses the specific
needs of people who face physical challenges in today's society. Teams will
research and present robotics technology solutions to help individuals in
their community perform the everyday actions that many people today take for
granted.
