Pink Programming Robotics & AI Camp

Join us this summer at the 5 day ROBO-AI Camp to explore the dynamic world of robotics and artificial intelligence!

Designed for women and non-binary individuals, our camp offers hands-on workshops that demystify robotics and AI, making them accessible and enjoyable.

At ROBO-AI Camp, you don't need to be an expert to start. Whether you're just curious about robotics or looking to deepen your understanding, our camp is the perfect place to foster your interests. Guided by Pink Programming volunteers from diverse backgrounds, you'll dive into the essentials of robotics - from programming microprocessors to enhancing robots with smart decision-making capabilities. We believe learning is best when it's interactive and fun. You’ll engage in activities that not only build your skills but also connect you with like-minded peers who share your enthusiasm.

No prior experience in the area Robotics & Ai is needed, our supportive team is here to assist you every step of the way (find pre-requisites below).

Got questions? We’re here to help! Reach out to us anytime and take your first step into the fascinating world of robotics and AI.
