Priority applicants would get preference in their admission to the course. Program will run virtually on Zoom.

Get your hands dirty & Make your ideas happen!

The idea behind the program has been to help teens to start their maker journeys and introduce them to the making culture. In turn, also help build impactful projects in the field of Electronics and Robotics that can potentially solve the UN – Sustainable Development Goals. This 10-day program helps students explore Electronics and Robotics and integrate it into the world of sustainability.

Under the guidance of the mentors, students will learn the basics of electronics and robotics, circuits, Arduino programming, and sensor interfacing with Arduino. Students will work on projects like Circuit prototyping on a breadboard and Intruder Alarm. In the final project, students apply the skills learned by assembling and programming a robotic arm with a use case that aligns to UN SDG 12 – Responsible Consumption and Production.

In Conversation With

Vaibhav Chhabra

Founder at Maker’s Asylum

Vaibhav is a Mechanical engineer by training, a Maker by passion, and an Educator by choice! A graduate of Boston University, Vaibhav spent the first 2 years of his career at EyeNetra, a startup from MIT Media Labs, building portable Virtual Reality based eye diagnostic devices. While working with the rural community in India for the eye diagnostic prototype, Vaibhav founded ‘Makers Asylum’. Vaibhav essentially coupled his degree with his passion to create the first community Makerspace in India. The key focus of this space has been to share the joy of making. He is also the Chair for innovation and entrepreneurship at Young Indians – Confederation of Indian Industries, a Global Shaper at the World Economic Forum, and part of the French President’s Young Leaders Club.

Alumni of Maker's Asylum

About Maker's Asylum

Maker’s Asylum is India’s first community open Makerspace in Goa that allows collaborative ideation & making. They bring interdisciplinary interventions across STEAM to foster a culture of innovation, exploration, and lifelong learning via digital and physical formats. They empower people by providing them the confidence, tools, knowledge, space, and communities they need to change the world and become globally-conscious problem-solvers. Learn more about them here https://makersasylum.com/

Projects that have come out of Maker's Asylum

Students are introduced to fundamental technology skills to help them visualise better and then work on a problem statement to go from ideation to making a tangible prototype of the solution using the skills they have gained. Take a sneak peek into some of past projects.
