Internship on Robotics

Register Here

An internship on robotics is a program designed to provide students with hands-on experience in the field of robotics. The program typically covers topics such as robot design, programming, control systems, and sensors. The internship may include activities such as building robots from scratch, programming robots to perform specific tasks, and testing and troubleshooting robot systems. Students may work in teams to complete projects or work individually on specific tasks. The goal of the internship is to give students a comprehensive understanding of robotics and to prepare them for future careers in the field. The duration and scope of the internship may vary depending on the specific program and the level of experience of the students.

Day 1: Introduction to Robotics

• Brief overview of robotics and its applications
• Introduction to the different types of robots and their components
• Basic programming concepts for robotics
• Hands-on activity: Building a simple robot using a robotics kit

Day 2: Robotics Programming

• Introduction to programming languages used in robotics (e.g. Python)
• Basic programming concepts for robotics (e.g. loops, conditionals)
• Hands-on activity: Programming the robot built on Day 1 to perform a simple task

Day 3: Sensors and Actuators

• Introduction to sensors and their applications in robotics
• Introduction to actuators and their applications in robotics
• Hands-on activity: Adding sensors and actuators to the robot built on Day 1 and programming it to respond to its environment

Day 4: Robotic Manipulators

• Introduction to robotic manipulators and their applications
• Basic kinematics concepts for robotics
• Hands-on activity: Building a simple robotic arm using a robotics kit

Day 5: Robotic Vision

• Introduction to computer vision and its applications in robotics
• Basic image processing concepts for robotics
• Hands-on activity: Using a camera to enable the robot built on Day 1 to perform a task based on visual input

Day 6: Project Showcase

• Students will work in teams to apply the knowledge and skills they have learned throughout the week to build and program a more complex robot
• Teams will present their projects to the rest of the group and receive feedback from instructors and peers

Throughout the internship, students will have the opportunity to work with robotics kits, programming software, and other tools commonly used in the field of robotics. They will also have the opportunity to ask questions and receive feedback from experienced instructors.
