The Rob9-16 Summer Holidays – X Project will take place from 29 June to 24 July.

Each week brings a different challenge, but the ultimate goal remains the same: to provide a meaningful activity for a small part of the summer holidays for young people ages 9 to 16.

  • X Project: “Comando Total”
    29 July to 3 July 2026

Build and program a Wi-Fi-controlled robotic car.

Throughout the week, participants will develop a vehicle that can be controlled via a cell phone or computer, exploring electronics, programming, and communication between systems.

The experience culminates in a final competition on an obstacle course.

Registration

 

  • X Project: “Código Secreto”
    6 to 10 July 2026

Build a smart safe with sensors, alarms, and detection systems.

Participants will develop a complete security system, combining motion sensors, light sensors, and remote communication.

At the end, they will have to test their systems in a challenge where other teams try to bypass the defenses they have created.

Registration

 

  • X Project: “Cidade do Futuro”
    13 to 17 July 2026

Develop a smart city using automated systems.

Participants will build an interactive urban model, integrating traffic lights, automatic lighting, and various technological systems.

This activity is a hands-on introduction to the concept of smart cities and urban automation.

  • X Project: “Energia Viva”
    20 to 24 July 2026

Build a solar-powered robotic system.

Throughout the week, participants develop a “technological sunflower” capable of tracking the light to maximize energy production.

This hands-on experience combines robotics, sensors, and sustainability.
