Imagine yourself in a space station, floating as you see the earth below. Attendees of the STEM Innovation Bowl will be able to don a virtual reality headset outfitted with a motion controller and for a couple minutes become an astronaut.
Free, but an RSVP is required.
As part of the City of Santa Clara’s Countdown to Kick-off leading up to the biggest football game of the year, this is a family fun event that celebrates Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) with the theme “Experience from Afar.”
Look forward to:
- 12 Future of immersive technology interactive exhibits
- Presentations and demos from innovative companies
- 10 Innovation Stations
Super Bowl 50 will be watched by millions of people on TVs and laptops streaming content, but what’s in store for future football games? The STEM Innovation Bowl will demonstrate the future of immersive technology and highlight virtual reality, augmented reality, telepresence robots, computer vision, 3D video, gaming and Santa Clara’s interactive map tool, MapSantaClara. Presentations will delve into the technologies.
Recommended for grades 6 and up, but it sounds like it will be fun for everyone. Younger grades should be accompanied by an adult. Younger grades will enjoy the Innovation Stations—hands-on areas—where kids can learn about circuit boards, build with blocks and straws, create mosaics using math, interact with robots and launch rockets.
