In these workshops, we will introduce the basics of circuiting and coding various sensors and components. By the end of the workshop, you will be able to turn your code on your computer screen into a working robotic project.

What you need to bring:

• (Optional) Your personal device you wish to code with. Otherwise we will lend you one of our laptops for the duration of the workshop.

What you will learn:

• Basic coding environments
• Basic circuiting
• (Optional) How to prepare your device for programming (personal device required)

Exclusive offer: You can receive an UNO board pack to program at home for AUD $8 (RRP: $14), including;

• A UNO R3 Developer Board (Arduino compatible)
• A USB Cable (Type A to Type B)

We have various projects for students to build, play and learn. The schedule for each module is as follows:

Robot Module

In this robot module you will build different robots using motors and sensors. The basic function of these motors is simple: they spin. You will see that depending on how you decide to use them, you can get different objects to animate in many different ways.

1. Camera Robot

Spy on your cat with this robot camera. Mount the camera robot and control it with a small joystick. You can watch the camera image on the computer and when you see your cat doing something suspicious, Thake a picture!

2. Line follower

The Line Follower does exactly what the name suggests, it follows a line. Make it go where ever you want by showing the way with a 3 cm wide, black line.
