Deep Dive

Inside Each Program

Curious exactly what your child will build, learn and take home? Switch between programs below for the full curriculum, learning outcomes and program facts.

The Robotics & AI Summer Camp is a hands-on STEM program designed to introduce students to robotics, coding, automation and engineering through practical, project-based learning. Students build, program and test real robotic systems while developing problem-solving, logical thinking and technical skills.

Learning Tracks

Smart Robot Car Track

Students build and program an autonomous robot car using Arduino-based hardware. They learn to control motors, integrate sensors, implement obstacle avoidance, develop line-following functionality, and use remote or Bluetooth controls, introducing real-world robotics concepts through a fun, engaging learning experience.

Creative Robotics Track

Students choose a robotics project and develop it throughout the camp. Options include a 4-DOF Robot Arm, Biped Robot, and Quadruped Spider Robot. Participants learn electronics, sensors, servo motors and programming while creating a fully functional robotic system.

The curriculum adapts to age and skill level: younger students learn through Scratch-based visual programming, while older students explore Arduino programming, Python concepts, hardware wiring and sensor integration.

★ FINAL PROJECT

Both programs are built around practical, future-focused skills, and based on the camp materials, each one concludes with a final project showcase where students present their completed work and demonstrate everything they've learned.
