MRT Robotics (robotclass.com.au) participates in the International Robot/Coding competition every August. At the end of the year, we motivate children by conducting various projects with professors from Australian universities.
(Before the pandemic) In 2018, I had a meeting and competition with Professor David Inglis of the Department of Mechatronics at Macquarie University. It was time to listen to the story of mechatronics applying medicine and biology, which is the professor’s specialized research field, and the children’s INPUT/OUTPUT robotics principle was performed in a play.
From 2022, we will be working with Professor Riza Yosia Sunindijo, Department of Architecture, UNSW, on the topic of IoT Smart Home Creative Robot.
All Primary/High school students are welcome to attend. From now until the end of January 2023, you can challenge yourself according to your goals and schedule. You can challenge any of the three events.

3 MISSIONS:
Mission 1:
Challenge 5 Levels of 110 coding lessons from this coming vacation to the end of January 2023. Once Children completed each lesson, children need to submit assignments (assignments will be available from 26/Sep/2022).
Course detail:
Step 1 – Basic: 26 lessons, 9 assignments projects
Step 2 – Intermedia: 21 lessons, 12 assignments projects
Step 3 – Advanced: 10 lessons, 10 assignments projects
Step 4 – Ai: 7 lessons, 4 assignments projects
Step 5 – IoT(Arduino Projects): 40 lessons, 15 assignments projects
*You don’t have to finish it all. When you finish at least one level, you’ll automatically receive a certificate.
Mission 2:
– Create an IoT smart home creative robot using an Android board and various sensors.
– You need an Arduino Smartboard and a set of 20 sensors for students. You can use what you have or if you do not have it, you must purchase it separately.
– Price $300-including shipping fee and relevant courses.
[important] due to related delivery reasons, Only students who have completed their purchase by the end of October can participate.
Mission3:
– Create a building game using various materials
– Take advantage of camera, sound, and artificial intelligence (machine learning) features
– We will send you the basic building game code. But you can change your mind and make it a completely different game.
