🔰 Introduction to the Robotics Beginners Course

The Robotics Beginners Course is the ultimate fast-track learning experience for anyone who wants to step confidently into the world of robotics. Designed specifically for complete beginners, this course gives you a strong foundation in how robots work, how they think, and how they interact with the environment. In just 120 minutes, you will learn the essential building blocks of robotics, understand the purpose of sensors and motors, and create your first fully functional robot project—all without requiring any prior technical experience.

This beginner-friendly robotics course takes complex concepts and simplifies them into a clear, step-by-step sequence that anyone can follow. You will explore how robots sense real-world information, process that data, and convert it into meaningful actions. Using accessible components like microcontrollers, ultrasonic sensors, motors, and basic electronics, you will gain practical, hands-on experience that builds confidence and unlocks powerful new skills.

Part of the Roboda Micro Learning Series, this 2-hour course focuses on practical learning, real project building, and quick skill acquisition, making it perfect for students, fast learners, hobbyists, STEM enthusiasts, and individuals who want to understand robotics without spending weeks learning theory.
