General Information
The workshops are currently being held at Google, in Mountain View, CA. The participants will build different types of robots and control them in different ways.

Testimonials
We'd like to thank and congratulate you for the brilliant initiative. [. . .] I can't thank you enough!
Thank you. Excellent intro to robotics for my son.
[My son] was excited first just to be part of the robotics camp at Google. Meeting and interacting with others was fun for him and understanding more about cause and effect was exciting. He really enjoyed the introduction to controlling robots through the glove and voice.
Kudos to you and team for organizing the workshop. Please keep up the good work.
