About

A world of infinite possibilities. That is the Intel® Future Skills vision. And this is just the beginning of your journey toward innovative thinking and doing.

Welcome to the ScribbleBot project. This project is all about tinkering and iterating. Your challenge is to create a simple robot that can autonomously scribble or draw on paper. You can make a DC motor spin or even vibrate, and then use those motions to create a drawing device.

When you are finished, share your design and feedback with us. We look forward to hearing from you!
