mBot online course for Do It Yourself
In the recent past, mBot has gained popularity as an entry to the intermediate level robotic kit. mBot is an easy-to-assemble educational robotic kit that helps students learn real-world applications in robotics. Teachers have been using mBot as a STEM educational kit for teaching electronics, programming and robotic concepts of varying complexity levels.
mBot can be programmed using graphical (Scratch based) and coding (like Arduino). This makes students learn the basic concepts easily and then move to solve problems of higher complexity levels.
This course provides you an introduction to mBot hardware and other electronics components on-board and helps you assemble the mBot. Using the coding exercise, you can program your mBot to perform real-life robotic applications.
Course ideal for
- School students & Parents
- Beginner to programming, electronics and robotics
Prerequisite
- Hardware - mBot v1.1 Bluetooth or 2.4Ghz
