Reliance World presents ROBOCAMP™

A complete Robotic Camp designed by IITians

Science and Mathematics reveal many secrets of the universe. Though students study the theories and principles in classrooms, they get few opportunities to actually apply these theories. While Robotics finds application in highly sophisticated areas (like Aviation and Surgery), it is also a great way to make children learn scientific theories in a fun way. At ROBOCAMP™ participants would get the opportunity to do just that.

Researched and developed at SINE, IIT Bombay, ROBOCAMP™ is a certified course that will teach students to build and program robots using hardware and software. ROBOCAMP™ is designed to demonstrate theories of Science and Mathematics, nurture scientific exploration and ignite an interest in Robotics technology.

ROBOCAMP™ will be held in the comfortable environs of Reliance World. Qualified Robotics teachers from robo.in will conduct the camp. Participants will learn the principles of robotics and then apply them in hands-on robot building sessions.
