PID Tuning for a Pick & Place
- After exploring the fundamentals of PID control during the workshop, it’s time to put your knowledge into practice! In this post-workshop activity, you’ll experiment directly with the Niryo robot’s wrist (axis 5) to achieve smooth, precise, and stable movements. By tuning the PID parameters, you’ll discover how small adjustments can make a big difference in the quality of robotic motion and apply these insights in a real pick & place challenge.
From Blockly to Python with the Ned2 Robot
- Move from visual to text-based programming by exploring the transition from Blockly to Python with the collaborative robot Ned2.Learn how to structure your code, understand Python logic, and control a real robot autonomously.
Project Lab: Designing an Autonomous Tool Changer
- Robotic tool-changing systems enable a single robot to switch automatically between different tools, enhancing flexibility, efficiency, and adaptability in industrial automation. In this project, students design, assemble, and program a quick tool changer for the Niryo Ned2, gaining hands-on experience in mechanical assembly, electronics, 3D printing, and programming.

CTE : Introduction to Robotics, Blocks Programming, and Automation
STEM Curriculum
- Hello there! Want to see how real factory robots work? We’re diving into the industrial world! We’ll be doing the same stuff they do: grabbing materials, transforming them into products, and shipping them out. Think of it as a factory simulation! So, before we do anything else, we need to learn the fundamentals. It’s like, we need to learn to “talk robot” so we can all understand what’s going on.
Create your own ROS2 Robotic Stack from scratch
Add-on ROS2 : Enhance your simulated Niryo Robot for Dynamic Obstacle Avoidance
Add-on ROS2 : Perform your first simulated pick and place with the Niryo NED2
- This add-on introduces a gripper to the simulated robot, enabling basic pick and place functionality. It enhances the realism of the simulation by allowing interaction with objects in the environment.You will learn how to integrate the gripper, control its motion, and execute simple pick and place tasks using MoveIt2 and Gazebo. This extension is ideal for testing manipulation workflows and preparing for real-world deployment. Let’s take the simulation a step further.
