🚀 Week 4 – Build a Brain 30 students in London are building their own artificial brain robot. This week: Logic+Memory. From floating-gate transistors → to microcontrollers. Get in touch to know what we teach [email protected] 👉 @noblackboxes.bsky.social

🚀 Only 4 classes to go from “What is this?” to students staying 15 minutes after the bell — still building, still testing, still asking questions. Get in touch to know what we teach [email protected] 👉 @noblackboxes.bsky.social

🚀 Week 3 "Build a Brain"! 30 students in London are building their own artificial brain robot, one layer at a time. We’re looking for secondary schools to partner with us to run this programme! Get in touch [email protected] 👉 @noblackboxes.bsky.social

🚀 Week 2 "Build a Brain"! 30 students in London will build their own artificial brain robot, one layer at a time. We’re looking for secondary schools to partner with us to run this programme! Get in touch [email protected] 👉 @noblackboxes.bsky.social

🚀 Build a Brain" has started! 30 students in London will build their own artificial brain robot, one layer at a time. We’re looking for secondary schools to partner with us to run this programme! Get in touch [email protected] 👉 @noblackboxes.bsky.social

🧠🚀 Build a Brain is back — Year Two starts next week! From Wed 21 Jan, secondary school students will spend 12 weeks learning how technology really works —by building it themselves. Want this course in your school? Email us! 👉Follow @noblackboxes.bsky.social

“When only a few understand how modern tech works, a new inequality appears. Welcome to the BLACK BOX AGE.” noblackboxes.bsky.social is changing this. We teach young people to fully understand technology. 👉 Join noblackboxes.bsky.social and help make tech understandable to anyone, anywhere.

👉 It’s finally happening! Soon, anyone — anywhere — will be able to take our @noblackboxes.bsky.social course & learn what no one has ever explained about modern technology… all in one place. Follow @noblackboxes.bsky.social

You click an arrow and ...your robot moves! 😀! But what is happening? We've updated our curriculum to make it even easier to understand how the Internet, JavaScript, & IPs.. work together, so you can build your app! 👉Follow @noblackboxes.bsky.social

✨5 billion people are online, sending trillions of socket messages every day. Wait… what’s a network socket? 🤔 You use one every time you message, stream, or shop online. 👉 Learn how it really works, follow @noblackboxes.bsky.social

✨Eyes ON! 👀 We just gave the NB3 Box robot its first personality upgrade. We engineered the LED "emotions" proving that even complex machine feelings are just state-machine logic. ➡️ Follow @noblackboxes.bsky.social to find out about our next courses

✨Discover what you can learn in 3 weeks! 🤖 Robot 4 – CoRA. A robot that spots your phone, asks if you need a break, and if you say yes… it presses your keyboard for you. But, it can also play football & cheer! ⚽️💛 👉Follow @noblackboxes.bsky.social

Only 2% of women watch our videos on robotics and tech ⁉️ 🤔 Why? When does this gap begin? How do we fix it? 👉Follow @noblackboxes.bsky.social

Discover what you can learn in 3 weeks! Another student project: “Wall-E Learns to Fetch” A robot with "place cells" that navigates HOME! 👉Follow @noblackboxes.bsky.social for our courses! @sainsburywellcome.bsky.social

“I was an ordinary person who studied hard. There are no miracle people. It just happens they got interested, learned the material, and kept practicing, reading and and studying. .” RP Feynman, 👉Follow @noblackboxes.bsky.social for info on our courses

✨Discover what you can learn in 3 weeks! We’ve just wrapped our 3-week No Black Boxes course for MSc/PhD students. Here are some highlights of their projects. 👉Follow @noblackboxes.bsky.social and email us for the syllabus + logistics of our courses.

Don’t tell kids “Let’s learn robotics” Tell them “Let’s play" Here’s Albi, 10-year-old, testing a new-built robot. Yes, he had tons of question & fun! Do you want your kids to enjoy technology without jargon? We make it easy. Follow @noblackboxes.bsky.social

Final day of our 3-week @noblackboxes.bsky.social course with the PhD students of @sainsburywellcome.bsky.social! Today is showcase of final projects 🤖! So much learned, so much fun! 👉 This could be you or your students!

Before you code a robot -> train a human! These 2 weeks we taught Reinforcement Learning, RL, from secondary schools (London AI Campus) to neuroscience PhDs (sainsburywellcome.bsky.social) When students feel RL on themselves, they code better. 👉 Curious? Follow noblackboxes.bsky.social.

✅ BRAIN ROBOTS built 🤖 Week 2 of the Last Black Box course at @sainsburywellcome.bsky.social is complete, students have opened every box (except the final one!) Next: the INTELLIGENCE box 🧠 Robots will get increasingly intelligent...

🤔 Why do we design and build our own tech at No Black Boxes? Because most tech around you can’t be opened, at least, not without breaking it. That's why we created our own custom boards, power supplies, microphones, FPGAs... Do you want to truly understand TECH? 👉 Follow @noblackboxes.bsky.social

📍 Teaching cutting-edge tech in a cutting-edge place! We started this week our "Tech Bootcamp for Life Science" at the Francis Crick Institute. Today’s highlight: a student building a theremin controlled by light: pure science, and lots of fun! 🎶🔦😄 Follow @noblackboxes.bsky.social

Super excited to teach our 🤖💥 Tech Bootcamp for Life Science 💥🤖 at the Francis Crick Institute next week! We’re diving into hands-on tech, circuits, AI, to help researchers: ➡️ Build skills ➡️ Run smarter experiments ➡️ Rethink their tools Follow @NoBlackBoxes for more!
