Edu-gnome

As Donald Sutherland said to Gavin McLeod in Kelly's Heroes, "Enough with the negative waves, Moriarty." Let's get away from creepy-nasty garden gnomes and into some tech-head gnomepunk education.


This is a robot created by students at the Green Meadow Waldorf School in New York's Hudson River region. The team had to program the robot to navigate a gridded layout, collect a bunch of three-inch rings, and deliver them to goals. Oh, and the goals moved around. Oh, and do we understand these are high school students? Of course, they won.

They call themselves the Poly-Gnomes.

Polygnomepunks is more like it!

Here you can read about the Poly-Gnomes and the Snow Day Showdown.
