PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Description

This course will teach you the general process of building a robot starting from an idea to having the robot working and functional. The course is for everyone whether you are a beginner or a more advanced Maker who wants to understand the complete process of building a robotic system.

What will you learn?

ü The basics of Robotics

ü How to Design your Robot step by step.

ü How to Create the 3D parts required to assemble the robot.

ü The basics of Electronics.

ü The basics of Programming the Arduino Uno board.

ü And much more...

The course will cover a broad range of topics and by the end of the course, you will have the skills to take your own projects from the idea stage to actually having the physical system in your hands working and functional.

Prerequisites

ü A computer with Windows, Linux or OSX

ü Basics of Mechanical Design and 3D modeling.

ü Very basic knowledge of electronic components (Resistors, LEDs, Breadboard, ...)
