Linyuan Elementary School produces robotic disinfectant dispenser

In recent months, COVID-19 has spread around the world. In response to the epidemic prevention policy, Linyuan Elementary School Mechanical Energy Club took just four days to invent a Lego-based robotic disinfectant dispenser. The combination of children's creativity and epidemic prevention measures has attracted media interest from home and abroad.

Linyuan Elementary School Mechanical Energy Club won the 2013 FIRST LEGO League Championships and came second place in the Programming Category of the 2019 FIRST LEGO League Australian Asia Pacific Open. The campus is located near an infamous industrial zone related to Kaohsiung's petrochemical industry where fires, gas explosions, and other such incidents are nothing out of the ordinary. As a result, the students' instructor Wu Ya-ru (吳雅茹) decided to set up a mechanical energy club in the hope of stimulating children's creativity and encouraging them to contribute to the community.

林園國小創意無限 打造酒精機器人

近期新型冠狀病毒擴散全球，高雄林園國小機械動力社，為了因應學校防疫政策，在短短4天之內，以樂高為基礎，發明了自動酒精消毒機器人，將孩童的創意結合於防疫措施中，也吸引了國內外媒體爭相報導。

林園國小機械動力社曾於2013年獲得美國世界機器人機械人表現冠軍，2019年在澳洲亞太區公開賽程式類榮獲第二名，由於校區位在高雄以石化行業著名的工業區，常發生火災、瓦斯爆炸等事件，因此指導老師吳雅茹心有所感，成立了機械動力社，希望藉由課程來激發孩童的創意，替社區貢獻心力。
