We're a group of students from Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), Massachusetts, that put our maker skills towards specialized robotics projects! All in the name of fostering a community around clean hobbyist robotics done right.
The Robotics Prototyping Club (RPC) is a WPI student club recently founded during the Fall of 2024. RPC aims to support formal undergraduate-led experimentation and development on club-approved projects related to robotics engineering, including but not limited to training core robotics skills and participating in design challenges and other related events.
Most importantly, RPC serves as a platform for extracurricular exploration in robotics, fostering networking, hobby projects, and professional collaborations between club members and the faculty of the WPI Robotics Engineering Department. RPC will provide a low barrier of entry for those new to robotics, while also helping experienced roboticists prototype advanced ideas and further elevate their skills.
Overall, RPC seeks to promote an environment where hobby robotics projects are taken seriously and thus prepare members for future opportunities, be they internships, graduate studies, or professional lab work.
