Overview

You will receive our custom robotics kit including an Arduino, which you will build along during the workshop. The content is designed to introduce robotics and electronics concepts in the most intuitive manner in a short amount of time. No prior knowledge of coding, electronics, or robotics is required.

At the end of the session, you will have made a small robot completely by yourself and you will fully understand how it works, including how simple IOT circuits are made on a breadboard, and how to setup and program an Arduino for basic tasks.

After doing this class you may decide if you want to pursue learning robotics more deeply. Adults can choose from build-at-home kits and Build A Robot Arm Workshop. Students 17 and below may choose to sign-up for our continued afterschool STEM Robotics Program or for the highly in-demand Summer 2021 Robotics Program. These programs also function as an internship pathway for high-school students as they prepare college applications.

Instructor

The class will be taught by our head instructor at Evodyne Academy, who is also the CEO at Evodyne Robotics.

- ex-eBay Research Scientist

- 2x Founder of Bay Area Startups

- 20 granted patents

- LinkedIn

Directions

881 Castro St, Mountain View, CA 94041. The third storefront on the right after turning onto Castro from El Camino Real in Mountain View.

What You Need

A Mac, Windows or Linux laptop with sufficient free disk space. If you have a newer Mac or Windows laptop with only USB-C ports, you must have a USB-C to USB-female adapter so you can connect the Arduino to your laptop.

If you do not have a laptop, we can provide one for you during the workshop.

In-Person Attendance

- Face Mask is an absolute must, and it must be worn properly at all times.

- Hand sanitizer, Gloves, and Lysol wipes will be provided.

- There are very few spots open for in-person because of social distancing, reserve soon!

About Us

Evodyne Robotics is a startup building personal and educational robots in silicon valley. The curriculum has been designed by our CEO, and classes are taught by robotics experts with years of industry expertise in designing and building robots from scratch. Instead of buying off-the-shelf "robotic kits" and quickly assembling for short term play, our approach is to start by teaching the lower level concepts that are necessary to understand why specific design decisions were taken the way they were. And to give students a rounded introduction to everything that goes into making intelligent robots, including programming, 3D design, 3D printing, electronics, computer vision, deep learning and so on.
