The students loved the competitions and the prototypes that were presented in the showcase area on Italian excellence, especially in the education and services sectors. The didactic laboratories that were held at the Ipsia Cattaneo School provided a wide range of activities from Scratch Programming for the youngest to the creation of rescue robots.
Now, the RomeCup will continue its activities in schools and the Rome Città Educativa Innovation Gym, which also hosts a Robotics Center and the first Roman Fab Lab modelled on MIT’s Center for Bits and Atoms.
