Why families choose Camp Asimov

In many robotics settings, students work in groups where only a few end up doing most of the real building. Camp Asimov is intentionally structured so each student builds and programs their own robot, develops direct mechanical and electrical understanding, and returns to team environments ready to contribute at a higher level.

Every student builds their own robot

Students do not sit back and watch demos or rely on one shared build. Each student is directly responsible for designing parts, assembling systems, wiring electronics, and improving performance through testing.

What the intensive actually means

This is a focused three-week robotics engineering program where students spend each day building, testing, troubleshooting, and improving their robot with direct mentor feedback.

How independence is taught

The goal is to help students become the builder on their robotics team: the student who understands the robot's structure, wiring, CAD (3D design software), and code.

Mentoring with engineering rigor

A 1:8 teacher-to-student ratio supports structured check-ins, hands-on repetition, and careful follow-through on each student's design, build, and testing work.

Led by Ronit Kumar, who founded Brentwood School's robotics program and now coaches competitive robotics teams at Crossroads School for Arts & Sciences. Ronit has spent more than a decade teaching engineering fundamentals and over fifteen years in competitive robotics as a student, mentor, and program leader.Camp Asimov was built for students who want more hands-on experience designing, building, wiring, programming, and debugging a robot from start to finish.
