First Steps in Automation and IoT with Robotics
The first few steps in introducing robots - or any other automation technology - are crucial to ensuring the overall success of automation. Proper engineering design and building robots can bring in systems that make early steps toward automating, and form a foundation for the next steps in the automation.
One aspect of that first step is choosing an automation application that will deliver a clear return on investment (ROI). As an automation platform, robotic process automation has the abilities to help manage all the capabilities that Internet of Things now makes possible.
In this First Steps in Automation, we are going to learn and use a simple pocket size computer to automate and create different design and use the tools to solve problems.
This hands-on course introduces the learners to programming and robotics in a fun and simple way. Learners will learn and explore different programs, what robotics can do, or create programs in no time. No coding or technical experience is needed as it is suitable for everyone.
IoT kit for each participant will be provided to be used during the workshop but returned at the end of the workshop.
