we have 30 - 40 ti-83's and ti-84's most are working, is there any good activity that our robotics team could do with them?

 

[BigJ]

Sell them and buy parts for an awesome robot.

 

[alfa147x]

[xSkyDrAx]

[BrunoPuntzJones]

SETI or Folding 😛

 

[Mr Pickles]

[Aikouka]

Beowulf cluster.

 

[dmw16]

Robotics team? No. Ti-83's & 84's have no good I/O, a measly z80 for a CPU clocked down to nothing.

Donate them. I'm sure some needy kids could get some use out of them

 

[hdeck]

donate them to a high school

Turn them upside down and make rude words.

While that is pretty funny as a response. You do realize those are graphing calculators, right?

Obviously not 😀

I'll try something else...

In Soviet Russia, T-83 upside downs you!

 

[SunnyD]

Play Tetris ... among other things.

Beowulf cluster! 😱

Or just donate them to your high school of choice. They'd be happy to take them off your hands.

 

[brandonbull]

Turn them sideways and shove them up your candy as$es!

They have data transfer ports, so I suppose you could use them as input devices for your army of robots...
