In our Science Camp Robotics you will have the opportunity to work with the humanoid robot NAO. You will learn what a humanoid robot is and control a NAO with the help of a computer as well as teach it new things.

Robots are true all-rounders: They explore foreign planets, play chess or soccer and help us humans in the household and at work.

In our Science Camp Robotics you have the opportunity to work with the humanoid robot NAO. You will learn what makes a humanoid robot and will control a NAO graphically from the computer and teach it new things.

Then you can test your program on the NAO robot in our institute and see how the robot follows your instructions. Make the NAO walk, talk, dance and much more!

At the end of the week you will also get a first insight into the text-based programming language Python and will be able to give further commands to the Nano. Each of you can set your own research tasks and work individually or in groups.
Previous knowledge is not required!

The next Science Camp Robotics will take place from October 29 to 31, 2024. It starts daily at 9:00 am and ends at 5:00 pm. We reserve the right to make changes.
The program of the Science Camp also includes a guided tour of the institute as well as joint lunches in the KIT refectory. It takes place in presence at the Institute of Anthropomatics and Robotics at KIT.

The camp is hosted by the Research Group for High Performance Humanoid Technologies (H²T) together with KCIST (KIT Center for Information ˑ Systems ˑ Technologies) and is organized in cooperation with ZML - Center for Technology Supported Learning and the Schülerakademie Karlsruhe.

This event is part of the project Reallabor - Robotic AI and is supported by the Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts Baden-Württemberg with funds from the state digitization strategy digital∂bw.
