Introduction to Robotics, Friday

A classroom full of teenagers. That was going to be... something.

Kaidan stood at the front of the class, a datapad in his hand and his eyes trained on the students. "Good morning," he said, "And welcome to Introduction to Robotics. I'm Lieutenant Commander Kaidan Alenko of the Systems Alliance, I look forward to meeting the rest of you." He cleared his throat. "Over the past year, my... universe--" It was weird, okay? "--suffered under an attack that involved advanced robotic AIs - that's artificial intelligences - called the geth. Much has been said about the geth and what level of sentience they've got. It's something we'll be talking about later down the line."

He put the datapad down on the desk. "But not yet. I'm given to understand most folks here aren't from the same place, though," he said, "and as we're going to be talking about advanced technology, I'd like to know where your worlds are at, and what experience you might have had in dealing with robotics, virtual intelligences, things like that. So let's start off there."

Victor didn't spend a lot of time playing with droids -- both because it was a little weird for him, and because he rarely had the kind of money and connections you needed to get the components. But he could read a set of blueprints about as easily as he could read the alphabet, so he felt like he had a good grasp on the droid's basic design in a matter of minutes.

He started making a few sketches on a separate sheet of paper, looking for ways he could make his droid lighter and faster. And maybe he could add some shielding technology, like what leapfrog had.
