Intensive Training Course in Robotics & Embedded Systems
Posted by tpapers On 02:22
Launched in December 2010, this program has proved to be a success
with more than 75 students completing it so far. Based on the feedback
received from students so far, we have overhauled the contents to give
you more.
A 2 Week long Exciting training program in Robotics &Embedded Systems
using Arduino. This program has been tailor made to give you complete
hands-on exposure to embedded systems and robotics. The program
focuses on extensive project based learning methodology with a special
focus on interfacing different types of hardware – sensors, actuators,
displays & other devices (GPS, GSM, ZIGBEE, IR Remotes, etc).
Well, We can hear you asking ‘So Whats this Arduino? Why not a PIC?’ –
See for yourself what google trends has to show

Posted by tpapers On 02:15
Botix '+' is a 3 day special robotics workshop. The workshop is made
out of the content of 3 of our other workshops - Botix, EmbedX &
ControlX. Spread over 3 days participants learn from the basics of
sensor construction to interfacing remote controls to implementing PID
control in a line follower. The workshop is currently available only
in Madurai and Coimbatore.
Heres a video of what you would learn to build towards the end
