Students learn directly from an Arizona State University faculty member, gaining insight into college-level and industry-standard tools and techniques.
Step into the world of modern engineering at the ASU MicroMaker: Microchips to Collaborative Robotics summer camp. This program is designed for high school students aged 15-18 who are interested in exploring how technology evolves from microchips to real-world robotic systems. Participants will gain practical engineering experience by learning directly from an Arizona State University faculty member, utilizing the same tools and techniques found in college labs and industry. The camp begins with an introduction to embedded systems, where students will program the ESP32-S3 using MicroPython and work with various sensors and peripherals to construct interactive devices. Following this, students will transition to collaborative robotics, where they will program a six-axis robot arm to perform motion control, set coordinate frames, and complete specific tasks. By integrating coding, electronics, and robotics, the MicroMaker camp provides a comprehensive and hands-on understanding of modern automation and a clear perspective on the field of engineering.
A typical day involves interactive workshops, hands-on activities and labs, and group collaboration projects, culminating in a final presentation or showcase.
This camp is ideal for motivated high school students (rising 10th, 11th, and 12th graders) interested in exploring engineering, microchips, and robotics.
