Race to Planet X Mobile Exhibit Vehicle
Roto was hired in 2004 to design and build an original mobile exhibit intended for use at a new Arkansas elementary school each day. Based on the State’s science and engineering curriculum, “Race to Planet X” transforms the interior of a 40-foot long custom vehicle into a futuristic spacecraft, complete with an automated talking robot commander who keeps the children on schedule. Rotating from station to station, children map terrain, line up lasers, test aerodynamics, decode messages, and drive a remotely operated vehicle outside their craft.
