Rochester Makerspace

Robotics

Build machines that sense, move, and respond—mechanics meets control.

Build what moves

Robotics combines mechanics, electronics, and control—machines that sense the world and move with purpose.

You assemble chassis and drivetrains, wire motors and receivers, charge batteries safely, and tune how the robot responds when you push a stick or run a program.

Projects range from classroom bots and remote-controlled builds to competition combat robots and autonomous experiments.

At Rochester Makerspace, members design, build, and test robots under expert leadership and instruction by robotics experts at the space.
