About This workshop
This intensive one-day workshop will guide participants through the entire process of designing and assembling a small, autonomous marine robot. You'll gain practical experience with low-cost sensor integration for water quality analysis, basic microcontroller programming using MicroPython for navigation and data collection, and 3D printing techniques for custom housing. We will cover principles of sustainable engineering, focusing on eco-friendly materials and energy efficiency, culminating in a live test of your prototypes in a controlled water tank environment. This hands-on experience is perfect for those looking to combine their passion for technology with environmental stewardship, offering a unique opportunity to innovate for our waterways.
