Course Overview

Building Arduino Robots and Devices online course is an extensive, in-depth 6-week study into the process of building gadgets and robots using the state-of-the-art microcontroller, Arduino. The certification course demonstrates the assembly of such devices and bots, along with how to program them to perform specific tasks. 

Coursera developed the Building Arduino Robots and Devices programme specifically for individuals keen in the field of robotics and looking to upskill. Also, the programme is the right choice for those who wish to develop their skills in the field of industrial or home automation, and for anyone involved in the field of advertising or industrial design.

Moreover, candidates will have access to ample reading material, carefully curated by the course developers. Once candidates complete the programme modules and practice assignments, they will be eligible for the much-coveted course completion certificate.

Finally, since the entire Building Arduino Robots and Devices course is committed to practical training, it will be beneficial if you had some of the electronics equipment used in this course handy.
