Mechatronics: the gateway to Robotics

Mechatronics is where creativity meets real-world engineering. It’s the combination of mechanics (3D-printed parts and moving assemblies), electronics (sensors, motors, and circuits), and code (Arduino programming) to bring ideas to life. Every project is designed to blend these three disciplines into something kids can see, touch, and use in the real world.

Through this hands-on approach, students not only learn how to code or wire circuits, but also how to think like engineers—planning, prototyping, testing, and improving their designs until they work perfectly. It’s STEM learning with a purpose: each belt level builds toward creating a fully functional, finished product.

  • Learn the building blocks of electronics: breadboards, sensors, LEDs, servos, and how each component connects to make devices come alive.
  • Design and fabricate 3D-printed parts: use kid-friendly CAD software to create custom enclosures, mounts, and gears that fit your electronics perfectly.
  • Assemble complete working products: wire, code, and 3D print your invention—then take it home to show off to friends and family.

Some of the topics your child will learn:

Electronics

  • Ohm’s law & resistors
  • Sensors & actuators
  • Breadboards

Arduino Coding

  • Variables & loops
  • PWM & timing
  • Libraries & sensors

CAD & 3D Printing

  • Parametric modeling
  • Tolerances & threads
  • Finishing & fit

Product Skills

  • Prototyping sprints
  • Docs & build guides
  • Presentation & marketing
