HEXLAB™ MISSION CONSOLE
Halifax, NS · Saint Mary’s University · Real-time animatronics lab. You walk in with curiosity. You walk out with a creature that maybe should not be allowed in polite society. That’s by design.

HEXLAB-1 (Aug 30, 2025): First contact. We taught Python, lit LEDs, drove servos, and let people wake up RoboBuddy™ microcontroller brains for the first time.

HEXLAB-2 (Oct 25, 2025): Haunted edition. Builders gave their robots lore, voice, costumes, and actual attitude — then battled in a live Costume Contest (crowd vote).

HEXLAB-3 (Nov 30, 2025): Free Public Event - Winter lights, cozy chaos, festive bots. Holiday Special @ Halifax Central Library, RBC Learning Centre [2:30-5:30pm]

HEXLAB-4 (Dec 20, 2025): Free Public Event - Winter lights, cozy chaos, festive bots. Holiday Special @ Halifax Central Library, BMO Community Room [2:30-5:30pm]
