Participants work with LDR\, IR\, ultrasonic\, and microphone sensors and learn how sensor data can be processed to control physical outputs. P ractical activities include ultrasonic sensing in Tinkercad\, a clap-contr olled home appliance\, and a water-level indicator. A 4×4 keypad is used to implement single-password and multi-password door-lock systems. Partici pants also develop a reverse car parking system\, demonstrating the sensin g–processing–actuation cycle.\n\nDay 5 – Motors & Robotics\n\nPartic ipants learn motor interfacing\, direction control\, speed control\, and t he integration of motors with sensors. Servo motors are explored through p otentiometer-based angle control and a servo robotic arm. DC motors are in troduced through direction and PWM-based speed control using an omni-direc tional table bot. The session progresses to autonomous robotics through an obstacle-avoiding robot using ultrasonic sensors and a line-following rob ot using LDRs. Stepper motor operation is also introduced.\n\nDay 6 – Co mmunication\, Bluetooth\, Wi-Fi & IoT\n\nThe final day focuses on communic ation and connected embedded systems. Participants explore I2C and SPI com munication\, including communication between two Arduino boards and I2C in terfacing of a 16×2 LCD. Wireless communication is introduced using Bluet ooth\, Wi-Fi\, ESP32\, and ESP8266 platforms.
