Delivery Docs
Courseware, lab manuals & project templates
When institutions adopt the course, they need to see these materials
A course is not just a handout. Each module must correspond to hardware, experiments, project tasks, and reusable delivery materials.
-
Real Hardware
Each module has a reusable hardware procurement list.
-
Project Tasks
Hands-on project tasks for classrooms or bootcamps.
-
Delivery Materials
Results-oriented delivery materials including courseware, lab manuals, and project templates.
-
Reusability
Organize once, reuse repeatedly across batches.
Three Learning Tracks
Build with AI, Build AI Products, Solutions — three tracks for different goals and module combinations.
-
M0
Build with AI
Create with AI tools, zero coding experience required
Let AI be your programmer while you be the maker. Use natural language to drive AI code generation, and create your own smart hardware projects.
