Course materials for Cornerstone Classical Academy (Roanoke, VA, USA) high-school robotics class, academic year 2021-22.

Course Instructor: Stuart Bowman (e.g. buffetboy2001 on GitHub, faculty listing)

NOTE: This guide will be changing continuously until the end of the 21/22 academic year.

Course Goals

A basic instruction to the interdisciplinary world of robotics will be covered. Students are not expected to have any technical background at all, but will learn little-by-little along the way using hands-on projects.

We’ll cover:

• Wiring sensors of various types;
• Raspberry Pi computing;
• Python computer programming on the Raspberry Pi

Project Summary

This year there will be two different robots being assembled:

1. Adeept 4DOF Robot Arm for R-Pi
2. Tank Steering Vehicle using a Xiaor Geek Tank Chassis

Students that are returning for year two of Robotics will build the robot arm. Students in their first year of Robotics will build the tank.
