Build Your First Robot: Hands-On Rover Workshop

​If you’ve always wanted to get into robotics and hardware but didn’t know where to start, this workshop is for you. In one hands-on session, you’ll build a working Wi‑Fi controlled rover robot from scratch, participate in a competition and take it home with you at the end.

​This is designed for complete beginners, so you do not need any prior robotics, coding, or electronics experience. You’ll be guided through the full process step by step, from assembly and wiring through to getting your robot moving.

​By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with:

• ​Your own working rover to take home.

• ​A practical introduction to how embedded systems, motors, sensors, and control come together in a real robot.

• ​A much clearer understanding of how robotics actually works beyond tutorials and videos.

​What to bring:

• ​A laptop and charger.

• ​A phone is helpful for testing control and connectivity.

• ​A bag to carry your robot home.

​What’s provided:

• ​All hardware and build materials.

• ​Guidance throughout the session.

• ​A beginner-friendly environment with limited spots so everyone gets real support.
