COLUMBIA (WACH) -- The public got to see first hand what USC engineering and computing students have created at on Open House Saturday.

The 3rd annual event brought out hundreds of people; especially children and their parents. They got to play with various robots, segways, and 3-D video games. Engineering and Computing students were on hand to demonstrate and answer questions.

There were also different experiment stations, and a pool full of water and corn-starch for kids to jump on.

The event was free and capped off Engineering Week at USC.
