Robotic Hackathon

​A Robotic Hackathon is a 12 hour sprint where teams design, build, and program a physical robot to solve a specific challenge.

​​The Essentials

• ​​The Goal: Build a working prototype that can move, sense its environment, and complete a task (like navigating a maze or picking up objects).

• ​​The Mix: It combines Mechanical Engineering (building the body), Electronics (wiring sensors and motors), and Software (coding the logic).

• ​​The Tools: Participants typically use microcontrollers (Arduino, Raspberry Pi), 3D printers, and coding languages like Python or C++.

• ​​The Outcome: The event ends with a live demonstration or "arena battle" where robots are judged on performance, creativity, and technical execution.

​​In short: It’s a fast-paced "build-a-thon" that turns an abstract idea into a functioning machine in a single weekend.
