The Adelaide City Robotics Club meets every Saturday afternoon from 1.30pm to 4pm, and Wednesday nights from 6.30 to 8pm in the basement at the WEA Learning Centre, 223 Angas Street, Adelaide. $20 per session.
During our club sessions, members can engage in building their own individual projects using the facilities available in our purpose-built room with other like-minded enthusiasts. There are also options to collectively explore the creation of new projects which can be used in future science displays or just for fun!
It is a safe and inclusive place for like-minds to get together to share experiences and ideas. Working on projects is self-directed and while there are usually experienced mentors on hand, support is not always guaranteed. Bookings not required.
If you would like to make a small donation (between $10 – $100) towards our club and organisation, we would very much appreciate your generosity.
2026 Robotics for Good Competition
Robotics for Good was a competition run by the Australian AI Olympiad: https://www.aaio.com.au/robotics-for-good-journey
Our team of 4 budding engineers designed and built a Weed Detecting bot with the following features;
Jerry is a car that can drive around and detect weeds.
It used FastAI for a basic image classifier on an RPi Zero 2W.
All prints were PLA, except for the TPU tyres.
Using a 2S LiPo battery.
Servo was never implemented (or plugged in…)
Two voltage regs, one for 6v for motors, the other for 5v to run the Pi. The Pi had a bunch of caps stuck on the 5v rail to reduce ripple.
2025 Line Following Competition
We are thrilled to announce the winners of our first competition of the year, where club members were challenged to design and build innovative vehicles capable of autonomously navigating a track. This competition was all about creativity, problem-solving, and friendly rivalry.
Everyone who participated had a fantastic time and we surely will run more competitions such as this throughout the year.
While everyone who participated was a winner, the two category Winners are Isaac for his Lego-based robot and Hugh, in the open division, where his nearly antique bot sped through the track at lightening speed!
Well done to everyone who worked hard on their bots and we hope to demonstrate some of these at our next Science Display event, Science Alive.
We are grateful for sponsors such as Daryl Designs who can see we value our club brings to its members in both mentoring and supporting the engineers and coders of the future.
Thank you Daryl for supporting us in continuing our high quality teaching and mentoring programs. Our latest article explains why Daryl has been keen to support our club and “keep our robotics dream alive!”
NDIS Services
We provide services that may be funded by self-managed or plan-managed NDIS participants. This includes attendance at Robotics Courses or at our Robotics Club. These services often fall under the categories of;
Group Activities, Skills Development and Training, Self Awareness and Confidence Mentorship, Workplace readiness
