Robotics & Electronics Fundamentals
Introduction to Robotics

Explore what robots are, how they work, and the key components that make them move, sense, and react to the world around them.

Basic Electronics & Circuits

Learn about voltage, current, and basic circuit components. Build simple circuits on a breadboard and understand how electricity powers robots.

Sensors & Input Devices

Discover how sensors like ultrasonic, infrared, and light sensors allow robots to detect and interact with their environment.

Motors & Actuators

Understand how motors, servos, and actuators create movement. Learn to control speed and direction for robot locomotion.

Introduction to Arduino

Get hands-on with Arduino microcontrollers. Write your first programs to control LEDs, buzzers, and read sensor data.

Programming Robot Movement

Combine motors and Arduino code to make your robot move forward, backward, turn, and follow a path autonomously.

Obstacle Avoidance Robot

Build a robot that detects and avoids obstacles using ultrasonic sensors and smart decision-making logic.

Line-Following Robot

Program your robot to follow a line using infrared sensors. Learn about feedback loops and calibration techniques.

Final Project: Sumo Bot Challenge

Design, build, and program a robot to compete in a sumo-style challenge. Apply all your skills to create a winning strategy.
