Build Your Robot,Build Your Product.

A 3-Day Intensive Summer Bootcamp.

Join 50 builders in a 3-Day Summer Bootcamp. Working in 10 teams, you will transform raw concepts into unique, prototypes using 3D printing and advanced IoT microcontrollers.

Hands-on Building
Summer Bootcamp at TBI-GEU

The Build Phase is Here.

Ten teams of 5 students each, building 10 wildly different prototypes over 3 days. This isn't just a seminar; it's a high-impact, hands-on maker bootcamp.

Every team will master the core pillars of modern hardware development: 3D Printing to engineer custom physical enclosures, and IoT & Electronics to wire up the microcontrollers and sensors that bring their prototypes to life.

Whether it is an autonomous fire-detection robot, a smart irrigation system, or a sign-language interpreter, you will leave with a working commercial-grade prototype.

Going from concept to a tangible, flashing, moving, and sensing device in 3-Days.

The 10 Prototypes

Different teams, different domains, but equal intensity. Here is what we are building this summer.

Environmental IoT

AirGuard

A smart air quality monitor that pushes anomalies to the cloud before they reach dangerous thresholds. (with realtime alerts)

Robotics

TrailBot

An autonomous line-following robot with gesture-controlled pause/resume via wearable IMU.

AgriTech IoT

AquaSense

A smart irrigation system referencing live weather API to optimize soil moisture.

Robotics

HandBot

A gesture-controlled 3-DOF robotic arm utilizing edge interface for intuitive movement.

Sustainability

BinVision

A self-sorting, two-compartment smart waste bin bridging binary CV classification and servo mechanics with cloud integration.

Computer Vision IoT

SecuPi

A TFLite-powered security camera that sends people-only alerts via Telegram.

HealthTech IoT

VitalBand

An all-day wearable health device predicting physical states and streaming real-time vitals.

Safety Robotics

FireSentry

An autonomous thermal detection robot to track hidden heat signatures.

Assistive Tech + CV

SignBridge

A localized real-time ASL/ISL interpreter converting manual signals to spoken audio.

EdTech Robotics

EduBot

An adaptive learning robot measuring accuracy and curating question difficulty on the fly.

The 3-Day Sprint

Structured tightly to guarantee completion. From CAD design to the final pitch presentation.

Day 1

Design & Print

Orientation, 3D printing workshop (Tinkercad CAD, Cura slicing), first test print, designing enclosures/chassis, queuing overnight prints.

Day 2

Electronics & IoT

Microcontroller basics (GPIO, sensors), team-specific sensor integration labs, Wi-Fi & cloud messaging (ESP32 MQTT, Blynk), Pi 5 OS setup.

Day 3

Demo Day

Final integration sprint, Demo Day pitch to panel

Igniting the Ecosystem

The bootcamp is just the spark. This initiative is designed to transition you into the broader innovation ecosystem.

TBI-GEU Build Lab Access

Keep the momentum alive post-bootcamp. Get access to hardware kits, 3D printers, and Raspberry Pis via the TBI-GEU Build Lab with open-access hours for continuous prototyping.

Prototype-to-Patent

Partner with TBI-GEU networks and faculty to co-author provisional patents. IP India provisional filing will establish your team's stake in the solutions you build.

Funding Pathways

Top projects natively feed into pathways like DST NIDHI-PRAYAS for pre-seed prototyping grants and iDEX for defence-relevant tech (like SecuPi & FireSentry).

Secure Your Spot

With only 50 seats available across 10 exclusive hardware projects, this cohort will fill up fast. Your ₹1,000 registration fee is an all-access pass that fully covers your hardware components, 3D printing materials, and intensive mentorship.

Summer Bootcamp Registration

₹1,000 / Student • Covers hardware, tools, and post-camp IP support.
