Date: 4th December 2024
Venue: Seminar Hall, Mechanical Department
Organized by: IEEE SB OUCE Robotics And Automation Society
The Robotics Club kickstarted its activities for the academic year 2025-26 by hosting an engaging introductory session for its newly joined first-year members. The event witnessed an
enthusiastic turnout, with around 60 students participating.
The session’s agenda was to provide an introduction to Arduino Uno, a cornerstone of robotics and embedded systems. The event began with a step-by-step guide to installing the Arduino
Integrated Development Environment (IDE).
Following this, the organizers delved into the fundamentals of Arduino, explaining its various types and providing an in-depth analysis of the pin diagram and the functions of each
component of the Arduino Uno.
The session continued with an introduction to Arduino programming, where students explored the basics of coding and controlling the microcontroller. This was followed by an engaging
discussion on various in-built Arduino functions and their functionalities. To conclude, a practical demonstration of a simple traffic light simulation using TinkerCAD was conducted, allowing students to see the concepts in action and solidify their understanding.
The session served as an excellent platform for budding technologists to gain hands-on exposure to Arduino and laid a strong foundation for their journey in robotics. The enthusiasm
and curiosity displayed by the students set the tone for an exciting year ahead for the Robotics Club
