An entry-level workshop for robotic enthusiasts of all disciplines where they learn almost all the aspects of entry level robotics which includes from making a chassis for their robot, sensor interfacing and Programming Micro controllers.
Workshops comprise of practical labs and theory sessions. Where much emphasis is given to learning-by-doing methodology.
Thus, we do not provide any pre-built material to students and strictly avoid the usage pre fabricated modules, as we believe that true spirit of Robotics lies in doing it by yourself.
Following are the details :
Fee : INR 2500/- per participant with kit
Fee : INR 6500/- for a team of 3 - with kit
Certificates will be provided after full completion of workshop
Kit consists of following
· 1x Atmega8 based development board
· 1 x Parallel port based ISP Programmer.
