The Big Idea - Episode 3 - Indigenous Robotics

After Ojibwe native Danielle Boyer joined the robotics team in high school, she realized how out of reach robotics are for low-income families. Since then, she’s made it her mission to create free robot kits to connect other Indigenous youth to the tech skills that will shape their future.

In The Big Idea documentary film series, we follow three bold, brilliant innovators who are using technology to create radical systemic change.

The Big Idea is a MIT Solve film made possible by the generous support of HP.
