The ISEF 2018 program book describes the Quad:
Be in your element when you visit the Intel Quad, where you bring the energy and excitement of Intel ISEF to life! This year we are returning to the elemental building blocks of scientific discovery with activities to spark your creativity. Visit our VR playground to experience the latest in virtual and immersive gaming. Showcase your artistic vision at our VR draw station. Perform on a djembe or other cool instruments on the Intel Quad Stage — we might have a jam session erupt! Craft “Circuit Pins” or a moving “Tiny Dancer” figurine from simple circuits and recycled electronics. play soccer with tablet-driven robots. Then speed away on the Quad Drag Racing Strip when you construct your own race car. Join us in the Intel Quad to connect, refresh and recharge with your fellow finalists!
