Getting Started In A World of Robotics is a presentation which I have given on multiple occasions as a speaker for Project GEIT (Goans Empowered with Information Technology). Its purpose is to introduce students to the basics of hobby robotics and to inculcate a ‘how-stuff-works’ attitude towards new technology in as simple a manner as possible. Students can also learn how to build a simple robot of their own using the concepts shown in the presentation.
