GoSense kit on RoboNation bots

Let’s Introduce Ourselves.

GoSense is a program of RoboNation, a nonprofit 501(c)(3) dedicated to hands-on robotics education that empowers students to solve real-world challenges. Through nine educational programs spanning K–12 to university, RoboNation is cultivating and engaging the next generation. We believe STEM tools should be accessible to all—not limited by financial barriers. 

We believe everybody deserves the chance to build, explore, and imagine—regardless of what’s in their wallet or where they come from. STEM education should be a pathway. GoSense exists to open that path—removing cost as a barrier so curiosity can thrive, talent can grow, and the next generation of problem-solvers can rise.

No matter your background or experience level, there is a place for you in GoSense, and that’s how we like it. Local mentors and educators serve as the backbone of this community and help to bolster GoSense efforts and connections. Whether you are connecting with another team in your neighborhood or on the other side of the country, we all have something we can learn from and teach to each other.

Although our favorite way to connect is face-to-face, that is not always possible, so we have a variety of opportunities for community connection in the virtual domain. Whether you have a question, want to share a success or some advice, the community is here to facilitate your connection with the program. But it’s more than just the program. We hope that these connections will have positive impacts that span into your future educational and professional journeys.
