Build A Robot

ONE DAY WORKSHOP

Build a two-wheeled robot in this exciting computing and electronics workshop. With expert guidance on construction and programming, and a kit of motors, wheels and electronics, you’ll be a robotics pro in no time.

Once built, learn the steps to program your creation to move forwards and backwards in a straight line. Add a distance sensor then write the code to stop your robot bumping into things.

*This does not include materials to take robots away from workshop. Customers will be provided with a bespoke ‘ingredients’ list to grab your own kit and show off your robot building skills at home.

Ian and Simon of 2 Times Do will bring their electronic mastery to Exeter Phoenix on this one off, special edition robot building workshop, the perfect way to keep young minds active over October half term week.
