Pricing For Summer Program 2024 Goes Up May 10
To attend In-Person, save by registering here to attend the entire program: https://www.evodyneacademy.com/product-page/complete-elite-track-build-an-ai-robotic-arm-and-mobile-manipulator
Overview
Build an advanced robotic arm completely from scratch with Arduino and Raspberry Pi, and take it home once built!
Unlike other classes that use pre-manufactured "kits", in this class students will learn, program, and manufacture a small robotic arm from scratch. By the end of this session, each student will:
- Have a thorough understanding of programming an Arduino and connecting various sensors and motors together
- An intuitive understanding of electricity and current
- Knowledge of basic electrical components like resistors, capacitors, potentiometers, LEDs, how to use a multi-meter, servo motors and PWM signaling
- Get an introduction to 3D Printing and 3D Design
- They will also learn some of the real-world applications of the geometry they learn at school!
- Each student will have brand-new hardware and non-shared equipment.
Each student will receive a box of supplies upon arrival, containing more than a hundred components, which will be used for learning and for building the robot arm. When the course is over, students are expected to take their box home for a full summer of continued enjoyment and learning. Attending Part 2 of this session is highly recommended since that is when we will add the Raspberry-Pi and Camera onto the arm and make it truly AI enabled! The course on 3D printing and 3D design will also give the student a deep dive into how modern robots and mechanisms are designed and created.
Social Distancing Policy
We have worked hard to create a safe setup that minimizes risk:
Masks are now optional
Reasonable social distancing will be encouraged and unnecessary huddling will be discouraged
We recommend each student bring their own water bottle.
Prerequisites
None. Previous programming experience will help, but is *not* required.
What To Bring
- Each student must bring his/her own Mac Or Windows laptop with sufficient free disk space, and administrative rights to install the Arduino IDE and other necessary utilities.
- Chromebook will not work
- A USB-C to USB adapter if your laptop contains only the new USB-C ports
