Workshop by IIT Bombay

Can you tell me in detail about the rBot-Mobile Robotics Workshop organized in December 2015 by IITB or Indian Institute of Technology Mumbai?

[sumit]

rBot-Mobile was a 14 Hours Robotics workshop which involved building autonomous robots using Mobile Robotic Platform. It introduced Arduino to the students, which is an open-source physical computing platform.

Arduino is an open-source single-board microcontroller, descendant of the open-source wiring platform, designed to make the process of using electronics in multidisciplinary projects more accessible.

Hardware is programmed using a Wiring-based language, similar to C with some slight simplifications and modifications.

Arduino is an easy to understand and implement microcontroller platform which students can use for their college or B-Tech projects.

Workshop is aimed to cover the topics on Control loops, Serial Communication, Sensors, Interrupts, and DTMF etc.
