3D Printing - Starter
This workshop initiates by discussing 3D printers and their general use-cases. We will then dive into settings and parameters in a 3D printing software such as Cura. The workshop will contain many demonstrations specifically prepared to explain different settings, defects and concepts you may face later on while 3D printing.

Hello Arduino!
This Arduino workshop is a mini workshop that will help beginner makers level up their skills and create their own Arduino project. Through this workshop, makers will be introduced to many important concepts such as microcontrollers, types of signals, circuits basics and a lot more. Makers will also work with various types of hardware such as sensors, displays, and general electronics components. The kit that will be used is our very own Voltaat Arduino Kit. The learning objectives of this workshop are: - Understanding what an Arduino is and how it works - Getting familiar with Arduino - Learning programming concepts using Arduino C - Using a variety of hardware components to prototype projects
- 160 QAR or 340 QAR with the Arduino Kit to take home

Beginner 3D Modeling
3D modeling is becoming a necessarily skill that everyone from any background is willing to learn. 3D modeling is a skill that allows you to make a digital version of any idea/design that you have in mind. This workshop aims to introduce the concept of 3D modeling through practice. Therefore, all the aspects of the workshop will be driven using real exercises.
The content covers most of the necessary tools required to start creating creative functional models. The workshop will focus on the required skills needed to implement sketches for your ideas and convert them into 3D models that are ready for 3D printing.

Design Thinking
Design thinking is a framework that takes a human-centered approach to innovation and product building. In this workshop, you will learn how to generate creative ideas to solve real problems, and how to recognize value in a concept worth pursuing.
This process, developed by IDEO and sitting at the center of the Stanford design curriculum, keeps the end-user in focus to transform your products, services, and internal organization procedures.

Beginner PCB Design
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) allow you to present your creations professionally. You can connect all types of components and create magical applications that will amaze you and your friends. Learning how to design PCBs is very interesting and fun, and of course, the outcome is much more fun! Of course, to design a PCB, you need to learn CAD software.
In this workshop we will be learn:
- Basic PCB components
- PCB types
- Schematics Symbols and footprints
- Connecting your symbols
- Converting into PCB
- Layout the components
- Connecting the components together
- finalizing the PCB
- Getting ready for manufacturing!
