Four levels, one journey
A spiral curriculum — each skill returns level after level, a little deeper each time. Levels build on one another, so students progress in order over roughly three months each.
Arduino & Electronics Foundations
A rock-solid base in electronics, circuits and Arduino programming — students learn what a robot really is, then build their first one.
Robotics Engineering
Bring circuits to motion. Students assemble and program a robot that drives, turns and reacts to its surroundings.
Smart Robotics & IoT
Connect robots to phones and the cloud with Bluetooth, WiFi and the ESP32 — the first step into the Internet of Things.
AI Robotics & Innovation
Give machines sight and intelligence — computer vision, AI concepts and voice/gesture control — ending with an original innovation project.
How mastery builds up
Every core skill is introduced, practised and mastered across the four levels.
