Robots are true all-rounders: they explore foreign planets, play chess or soccer and help us humans in the household and at work. At our "Robotics" science camp, you will learn how robots are constructed and how they work. You will have the opportunity to work with the humanoid robot Nao and gain insights into current research topics in robotics.

The robot Nao has big eyes, broad shoulders and movable arms and legs - it is modeled on a human being. In small groups, you will learn what makes a humanoid robot and how to program it. Let the Nao walk, talk, dance and much more! During the Science Camp week you will learn how to program the humanoid robot Nao graphically. At the end of the week you will also get an insight into the text-based programming language Python.
The Science Camp program also includes a tour of the institute and lunch together in the KIT canteen.
