Take the reigns and bring this computerized canine to “life\,” while discovering the inner workings of how it moves and “thinks.” With the help of UNC’s Experimental Engineering Lab (EEL) and the Interactive Robotics and Novel Technologies (IRON) Lab\, you’ll be able to explore how scientists and engineers craft robots to engage with the world. Join us as these incredible labs share their work\, answer your burning questions\, and offer a behind-the-scenes look at life as a scientist! \n\n\n\nLocated in the Ivan R. King Gateway Gallery. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMORE is happening at Morehead this year\n\n\n\nNew for 2026\, Saturday Science Sparks offers Morehead guests a closer encounter with current science.
