AI Robotics & 3D Fabrication Lab

Over five engaging days, participants aged 14-18 learn about designing and 3d printing robotic components using Autodesk Fusion 360, while learning to assemble and calibrate their creations. They explore LeRobot's powerful pre-trained models, implementing AI policies for tasks like object manipulation and autonomous sorting. The camp culminates in a showcase where each camper demonstrates how their robotic arm fares in the challenges setup by us.

Each camper takes home a fully built Robotic arm OR just 3d Printed components. The cost differs based on what option you choose.

Ages: 14-18

Hours: 6 hours a day – Five days a week

Week of July 28 - 10 am to 5 pm (one hour break for lunch from 12 to 1 pm)
