Pingal STEM & AI Robotics Program
Pingal is a robotics and STEM learning program designed to simplify the understanding of robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) for students. By mastering Pingal, students are empowered to navigate and contribute to the evolving world of technology and innovation.
🌟 Overview
The Pingal Program is one of the flagship initiatives of the Ashraya Foundation, dedicated to advancing education in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), robotics, and AI. It is designed to prepare students — especially those in under-resourced schools — for a technology-driven future by providing practical, hands-on experience.
Pingal not only engages students in modern STEM education but also equips teachers with the tools and training needed to make classrooms more interactive, inclusive, and tech-ready.
⚙️ Key Features
