About the event

A six-week afterschool program on Wednesdays, 5:00 - 6:30 PM

Dates: January 8, 15, 22, 29, February 5, 12

Ages: 8-12

Students will be working with the microcontroller Arduino to learn electronic circuits & build an autonomous car.


Students will learn C++ language to program an Arduino to control LEDs, ultrasound sensor, servo motors, DC motors and an H-bridge. They will also learn about electrical circuits and how to use a soldering iron. Then, they will put all that knowledge together and build an “Autonomous Car” that can avoid obstacles and drive through a maze. At the end of the course, students will be able to bring the car home to continue developing their programming skills.
