Robotics for Kids - Session I
The air around us is filled with invisible conversations. This Robotics and Electronics module turns you into a radio explorer.🚀
​
How cool would it be to hang a sensor outside your main door that beeps every single time the Starlink (satellite constellation operated by SpaceX) flies overhead?
You will learn the art of Software Defined Radio (SDR). You will discover how to capture signals from the air, whether it’s a car key fob, a radio station, or even data beamed down from satellites in orbit. You will learn that the invisible spectrum is a vast landscape waiting to be explored. Geared towards Age group 8-15 yrs.

Networking Basics: Concepts of IP addresses, HTTP requests (GET/POST), and why the ESP32 needs to connect to a local WiFi network.
-
HTML/CSS Fundamentals: Writing a minimal web page directly within the Python firmware to serve as the user interface.
-
Web-to-Hardware Bridge: How to parse a URL request (e.g., /on or /off) and map it to a specific Digital GPIO pin on the ESP32.
-
Concurrency & Loop Management: Ensuring the web server remains responsive without blocking the main execution loop.
