The aim of these bootcamps is to encourage young minds to apply their skills and develop robots in teams. In these bootcamps, experts will train the students not only on the basics of robotics, but also how to use robotics in everyday life. This will also enable the students to participate in “Robo-Kancha”, which is to be played under the DRL 2023, a Delhi government initiative launched in partnership with IHFC.

The DRL will culminate with the finals in the first week of July. As rewards, the winners will get cash prizes and mentorship from IHFC-IIT Delhi as well as a Pre-SEED grant for student-owned startups.
