Build a Pick-and-Place Robot That Knows It Missed
An arm that picks parts from a tray and sorts them into two bins, detects an empty grasp, retries, and logs how many cycles it got right.

Robotics projects, built as guided paths
A project is more than a simulator. Each one is a build path—a tech tree of tutorials, learning paths, and components that unlocks step by step until you have a real robot. Tune the behaviour in the browser, then wire the hardware.

Build a Mecanum Robot That Drives Sideways
A robot that strafes a 1 m square, comes back within 5 cm without ever turning, and keeps driving the same way across the floor while you spin it.

Build a Pen Plotter: Two Stepper Axes That Arrive
A plotter that homes itself, draws a 100 mm square that closes within a few tenths of a millimetre, and repeats it.

Build a Line Follower Robot With an 8051 Microcontroller
A working line follower running on a bare 8051—and a clear understanding of every layer an Arduino would have hidden, from the reset circuit to the PWM waveform.

Build a GPS Waypoint Rover That Drives Itself
A rover that drives a saved list of GPS waypoints across a field on its own, holding a line to within a metre, and stops itself if it leaves the geofence.

Build a Line Follower Robot: From Simulator to Real Track
A working line-following robot you understand end to end—from how it reads the line to the PID loop that steers it—built from parts you tuned in simulation first.

Build a Line Maze Solver Robot With LSRB Route Memory
A robot that explores a taped line maze on its own, remembers every junction it met, and then runs the shortest route from start to finish without one wrong turn.

Build a Micromouse: A Flood-Fill Maze-Solving Robot
A robot that explores a walled maze on its own, builds a map of it, and then drives the shortest route from start to centre without a wrong turn.

Build a Mini Sumo Robot: Grip, Wedge and Edge Sense
A mini sumo robot that searches for its opponent, pushes it out of the ring, and stops itself at the white border instead of driving off the edge.

Build an Obstacle-Avoiding Robot: Sense, Scan, and Steer
A robot that roams on its own—sensing obstacles, scanning for openings, and turning toward clear space—built from parts you understood and tuned in simulation first.

Build a Phone-Controlled Robot Car Over Bluetooth or Wi-Fi
A robot car you drive from your phone over Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, that stops on its own the moment the link drops instead of running away.

Build a 4-DOF Robot Arm: PCA9685, Servos, and Kinematics
A desktop robot arm that moves to the poses you command—driven by a PCA9685 and tuned with inverse kinematics you understood in simulation before wiring a single servo.

Build a Room Coverage Robot That Sweeps a Floor
A robot that covers a room on its own with nothing but two bump switches — and a measured case for whether adding odometry and a planner is worth it.

Build a ROS 2 Robot That Sees and Drives to a Marker
A robot that spots a marker across a room, works out where it is relative to itself, and drives up to it head-on — structured as a real ROS 2 node graph.

Build a Self-Balancing Robot With an MPU6050 and PID
A two-wheeled robot that stands up by itself, stays upright when you push it, and holds its spot on the floor instead of drifting away.
