Come join like-minded individuals who like to explore and create!

Examples of Workshops We Have Offered

Internet of Things (IoT)

Get started into the Internet of Things (IoT)! IoT refers to a network of physical devices, vehicles, appliances, and other physical objects that are embedded with sensors, software, and network connectivity, allowing them to collect and share data. IoT encompasses electronics, communication, and computer science engineering.

Participants in this workshop will learn the basic features of a microcontroller, the types of devices it can control and how when it is connected to the internet it can be more than the sum of its parts. Participants will also learn how to program the microcontrollers with MicroPython. Everyone will be able to take home the kit they are given in the workshop which has other options for continuing learning.

Participants are encouraged to bring their own laptop to set up their configuration environment to use the kit for additional projects at home.

Combat Robots 3-Part Workshop Series

This 3-Part Workshop Series is a high-level guide to design and build a small-size combat robots. The instruction and guidance can be used specifically for robots weighing 3 pounds or less. The workshop series will focus on 1 pound robots, designated by the class ant-weight which is a great application to get started. Specific information and references will be provided, to help you successfully complete a working combat robot. With a working combat robot you will be ready to compete at our Gobble Squabble event the Saturday before Thanksgiving!

The cost of the camp includes a combat bot each participant has designed and made across all workshop sessions based on their game strategy.
