A human-friendly way of programming robots

Abstract

Abstract—Embedded systems are becoming a more important part of our lives. Students enjoy them on a daily basis, but they cannot imagine they will ever be able to build such systems themselves. We believe that this is due to the dull bottom-up approach that is taken by our science education system. By the time students are allowed to do something fun and interesting with the knowledge they have acquired, they were bored to death by endless hours of abstract science and math classes. We believe that introducing robotics early on in their curriculum can spark their curiosity and revitalize science education. I.
