Build robots that talk to the internet.
The deepest level of the robotics path. Students work on the ESP32, a Wi-Fi enabled microcontroller used in real commercial products, and connect their builds to the internet. They write the firmware, build the phone interface, and handle the parts nobody warns you about: dropped connections, power budgets and security. Students leave with projects worth putting on a college application.

ESP32 boards, sensors, relays and chassis parts are provided. Students need a phone or laptop for the dashboard work; we lend devices to anyone who needs one.
7 levels, from your first spark to showcase day. Follow the trail.
Meet the ESP32 and get it talking to your Wi-Fi network in the first session.
Send sensor readings to the cloud and pull them back down somewhere else.
A web interface your robot answers to, built from scratch.
Batteries, sleep modes and what happens when the network drops mid-command.
Why an open device is a liability, and how to lock yours down.
Design, build and document a connected project that solves a problem you picked.
Present your capstone, defend your design decisions, and take the portfolio with you.
Show off what you built, take your projects home, and level up to the next stage.
Then what?
