Robotics
Overview
Robotics is a 60 hour, hands on course that takes you through the fundamentals of building and programming your own robotic projects. Guided by an instructor, you will work through interactive labs, simulations, and practical exercises covering Arduino basics, circuit construction, sensor integration, motor control, and wireless control.
By the end of the course you will have the skills and confidence to design, program, and present your own robotic project, along with a solid foundation in the components, sensors, and control mechanisms used across the field of robotics.
What You Will Learn
- How to program and control electronic components using Arduino
- Building circuits using breadboards, LEDs, push buttons, and resistors
- Integrating sensors such as ultrasonic, IR, sound, temperature, and humidity sensors into robotic projects
- Motor control concepts, including motor drivers, servo motors, and relay switching
- Using Bluetooth and WiFi for wireless control and basic Internet of Things projects
- Building a line following robot using sensor feedback and coded tracking algorithms
- Designing, programming, and presenting your own original robotic project
