Overview
In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn how to build a robot using Arduino hardware and the Arduino (C/C++) language.
By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- Build and operate a robotic system that includes both software and hardware components
- Understand the key concepts used in robotic technologies
- Assemble motors, sensors and microcontrollers into a working robot
- Design the mechanical structure of a robot
Audience
- Developers
- Engineers
- Hobbyists
Format of the course
- Part lecture, part discussion, exercises and heavy hands-on practice
Note
- Hardware kits will be specified by the instructor before the training, but will roughly contain the following components:
- Arduino board
- Motor controller
- Distance sensor
- Bluetooth slave
- Prototyping board and cables
- USB cable
- Vehicle kit
- Participants will need to purchase their own hardware.
