Three ways to build.
A makerspace at DVC
Collaborate on practical builds and share tools. Work toward a dedicated student workspace where ideas become prototypes and students learn together.
Projects & workshops
Explore circuits, sensors, Arduino robotics, and computer vision through hands-on projects with guidance from Charles Sun. Move from a first demo to a working prototype.
Atlas research
Can a robot remember a space and navigate it after things move?
Start with mapping and navigation in simulation. Compare spatial memory against a baseline, and work toward reproducible experiments, an open-source demo, and a student research paper.
Electronics education.
Robotics in practice.
Charles Sun is an electronics instructor at Diablo Valley College and faculty advisor to DVC Spatial Lab. His interests span mobile robotics, embedded hardware, and practical experimentation.
Alongside teaching Electronics I, he participates in the HomeBrew Robotics Club community, sharing technical observations and project findings that connect electronics, software, and physical systems.
2026
Electronics instruction
Teaches EET-116, Electronics I. The Summer 2026 schedule includes a section serving the Tesla Test and Control cohort, placing electronics instruction within an applied technical training context.
2025
Mobile robotics & embedded hardware
Set up and operated an EarthRover Zero using cellular teleoperation. Documented its controllers, GPS, IMU, cameras, and communications hardware, and shared observations on system behavior and software limitations with fellow robotics practitioners.
Supporting a student-led maker community through electronics and robotics projects, practical workshops, and faculty guidance.
