Gearbox Labs, Inc.

Thank you PPG Foundation for its continued support. Read our press release about how we will with work with Milwaukee Public Schools and other schools in and around Milwaukee to build interest and capacity in engineering, electronics, coding, 3D Design and 3D printing. https://lnkd.in/ggBhuPsr

Another great class at Oshkosh North High School thanks to Generac Foundation. Today the students designed, built and coded a soil moisture sensing device. The students learned about the voltage signals generated by the sensor and how to calibrate LED and buzzer indicators to show how wet the soil is. The students also worked with the code to accommodate different soil types and plant moisture requirements. Kudos to the class and their hard work !

Thank you Generac Foundation for supporting Gearbox Labs, Inc.'s residency at #Oshkosh North High School. For the past several weeks, we have been working with the high school's #electronics class integrating #microcontrollers and #coding into their lessons. Thank you to our host school, the district, and the teachers in the #CTE department. We've covered the basics of resistors, diodes, potentiometers, Ohm's law, LEDs, RGB LEDs, and servos. We are now turning to sensors for light, distance, temperature, and soil moisture. After the year starts, we will work with students at South Park Middle School on 3D Design and 3D Printing.

What can the whole #family do at Maker Faire Milwaukee? Learn to #solder, design and 3d print a project, build and launch #rockets, build and race a nerdy pine car, made music, build with legos, learn from kids what they did with their Raspberry Pi's and Arduino's, discover a world of STEM activities going on in #Milwaukee. Your family might just need to come both days to do everything at the Faire. Plus a lot more .... all free. See our growing list of makers here https://lnkd.in/grWzKSSX Join us at Discovery World next week (Saturday, November 2 from 9 am to 4 pm and Sunday, November 3 from 9 am to 3 pm) and learn, build, create and MAKE! Get your free tickets here. https://lnkd.in/g5vs_yWd

We've been teaching 3D design and 3D printing at Milwaukee Academy of Science Junior academy the past two weeks. We are starting our fourth year with MAS. We are looking forward to this year working with all the young scholars.

See you at the CSforALL conference this year in our home town of #Milwaukee! Please stop by our booth and check out our books, kits, and workshops! https://lnkd.in/g_5CkCzU

We still have room for makers to share their work! Sign up today for a FREE 10'x10' booth.

Moving on up! Gearbox Labs is proud to announce that it has moved across town and is now set up in a larger facility. We've doubled our space! We will have more room to write our curricula, produce webinars, build and test project prototypes, and build kits for your classrooms. We will even have a dedicated 3D printing farm in the same space as our other work. Thank you for making our growth possible!

We are proud to support your classroom. You are at the cutting edge of STEM education using microcontrollers. We look forward to seeing your continued success!

Congratulations to the 2023-24 Eagle Engineers from Carmen Schools of Science and Technology Northwest Campus who participated in the NASA Techrise competition. Also, a big shout out to Isabel Mendiola M.Ed who was the lead mentor for the team. Your hard work paid off and your instrument successfully took off, collected data, and returned to Earth! Gearbox Labs, Inc. was honored to assist you. We are looking forward to receiving the data and working on the analysis. Read more about their work here https://lnkd.in/gguPcvwU
