Students gain practical experience by building and programming their own autonomous mobile robots.
The Temple University Robotics Summer Institute provides students with a hands-on experience in robotics, focusing on the design, construction, and programming of autonomous mobile robots. Participants will delve into the fundamentals of robotics, learning about various sensors, motors, and microcontrollers that enable robots to interact with their environment. Through practical activities, students will gain skills in programming robots to perform specific tasks such as obstacle avoidance and line following. The program emphasizes problem-solving and critical thinking as students work to overcome challenges in robot design and functionality. This immersive experience aims to foster an understanding of engineering principles and inspire interest in STEM fields.
A typical day involves hands-on activities where students build and program robots, experiment with different components, and test their robot's ability to perform tasks.
This program is best for middle and high school students interested in robotics, programming, and hands-on engineering challenges.
