“Foundation of Robotics” – 2 days holiday activities for kids
The ‘Foundation of Robotics ’ is the introductory robotics and coding holiday program for kids intended to familiarise them to robotics and coding. This program focuses on the fundamentals of robotics and coding where they will start learning from circuits, sensor, coding all the way to a fully functional robot in 2 days. The only robotics and coding program where kids make their own robot and learn coding hand in hand.
After completing the first course your child can come back to learn more robotics and coding. Our robotics and coding holiday activities for kids are available with 6 progressive levels where your child builds on the knowledge level by level. With each progressive level students add more features to their robot and build on knowledge from their previous learnings.
This is a perfect opportunity for kids who are just starting with robotics and coding and also for the students with the prior experience our holiday activities are going to add value to your previous learning with more complex and advanced robotics and coding.

Robotic Kits for Holiday Activities for Kids
We provide robotics kits for our robotics and coding holiday activities for kids. Each student gets his/her own robot, they make it, code it and take it home. The robotic kit includes all the components including sensors, development board (Arduino), sensor shield, motor driving board, motors and other parts to make a fully functional robot. Students will learn each component, put them together, learn to code and solve multiple problem statements.
What’s after finishing Level 1
Path Finding Robot
Problem Statement: In this holiday program give your child another robotics program statement. Imagine a major water pipe in your city is experiencing a blockage causing a shortage of water to the residents. Council is required to act quickly on it. Digging up the whole pipe is an expensive and time-consuming solution. Engineers want to design and code a robot to autonomously go inside the pipe and identify the location of the blockage. This would reduce the time and cost of repair.
Program Level: Intermediate
Program suited for: Age 7 & above
Duration: 2 days
Prerequisite: Level 1
Timings: 9.30 am – 3.00 pm
Soccer Bot
Problem Statement: Have you played soccer in video games before? You can move and control players around using a joystick. What about building a robot controlled by a wireless remote/joystick. Your child will learn joysticks controls, analog values and Bluetooth communication and make the robot play a soccer match. There will be a soccer match in and the team with the highest number of goals will be the winner.
Program Level: Intermediate
Program suited for: Age 7 & above
Duration: 2 days
Prerequisite: Level 2
Timings: 9.30 am – 3.00 pm
The emergency bot
Problem Statement: Our security department uses many robots for dangerous tasks. How about building your own robot for the same? In this holiday program, your child will build and code a robot to find pick up any suspicious object and move it to a safe location. The can be controlled via a wireless remote or can be programmed to finish the task autonomously.
Program Level: Intermediate
Program suited for: Age 7 & above
Prerequisite: Level 3
Duration: 2 days
Timings: 9.30 am – 3.00 pm
Maze Solving Robot
Problem Statement: There is a maze with multiple paths. Your child will design and code a robot that can autonomously find its way out of the maze. After the first try, the robot should also remember the path it took to get out of the maze.
Program Level: Advanced
Program suited for Age 10 & above
Prerequisite: Level 4
Duration: 2 days
Spider Bot
Problem Statement: Have you seen a spider crawling? In this program, your child will make a spider robot and learn the complex servo motor movement to get the robot moving and detecting objects.
Program Level: Advanced

Prerequisite: Level 6
Duration: 2 days
Timings: 9.30 am – 3.00 pm
Self-Balancing Robot
Problem Statement: Have you seen a hoverboard before? It moves according to the rider’s movements and balances itself. In this holiday program, you will build and code a self balancing robot that can balance itself in upright position even when external force is applied to the it.

Program suited for Age 7 & above
Duration: 2 days
Timings: 9.30 am – 2:30 pm
Robotic Arm Senior
Problem Statement: In big industries, robots are used to lift heavy objects that humans cannot build. In this holiday program, you will build your own miniature version of the robotic that can pick up things and drop them in a different location autonomously using C++/Java/Python. The robot will have 4 axes of control to pick up and drop things.

Mining Robot
Problem Statement:
Ever fascinated by a Mining Truck before? What if you want to make one for yourself? For these holidays, let’s build one. This will be an arena-based project where you will build a robot with an attached trunk for loading and unloading.
