Title: search present
Post by: g44 on March 02, 2010, 09:14:52 PM

I search after a present for student in high schools 17 years olds
That related to robotics OR mechanics OR electronics OR computers
The present need to be approximate 10 dollars
These present is for students that participate in a robotic competition

$10 is too little . . . perhaps a book? If you're lucky, you might be able to find a used book on Amazon at that price:

Or maybe a $10 gift certificate for TR:

Hi,

I think that a few sensors are not very expensive (phoresistor, thermistors CTP, CTN,IR detector, tactile bumper switch...) & it's a good idea to make test  for future robots. ;)

Hi,

Get local companies to sponsor some prizes, that shouldn't be too hard if you represent a school or a similar organisation.
