Why Robotics?

Robotics combines engineering, coding, and creativity. Students see their code move in the real world — motors spin, lights blink, and sensors react.

What You Need to Begin

  • A microcontroller (like Arduino or micro:bit)
  • Basic sensors (distance, light, temperature)
  • Motors and wheels
  • A laptop for programming
  • Curiosity and patience!

Your First Projects

1. Blinking LED — The "Hello World" of hardware.

2. Line-Following Robot — Use sensors to follow a path.

3. Obstacle Avoider — Program your bot to navigate around objects.

4. Remote-Control Car — Combine motors with wireless control.

Skills You'll Build

  • Circuit basics
  • C++ or Python for hardware
  • Problem solving under real constraints
  • Teamwork on group builds

Code Ninja robotics classes guide students from zero to competition-ready projects.
