Building A Robot from the Ground Up

• Programming experience in any language

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.
• If you wish to customize this training, please contact us to arrange.
