RoboSUST Mythical Month officially entered its Advanced Training Phase with the first two sessions of LFR Development.
After the Orientation Programme, Lab Tour and Evaluation Phase, participants finally started the part everyone was waiting for: working on their own Line Following Robots. For many this was their first experience directly handling the hardware and systems behind functional robotics projects.
Over the first two sessions participants explored the foundations of robotics, learning about Arduino, power management, robot chassis design, motors, motor drivers, servo control and onboard displays.
One of the highlights of these sessions was seeing everyone come together as teams. Participants met their teammates and mentors, laying the foundation for the collaborative work that will continue throughout the training phase.
There is still a long way to go but the journey is well underway. Over the coming sessions these teams will gradually transform individual components into fully functional Line Following Robots before taking them to the track at RoboSUST's signature competition, Auto Grand Prix.
A warm and promising start to the Advanced Training Phase. We are excited to see how each team grows and what they create in the weeks ahead.
