Hands-on IoT, robotics and STEM education that turns curious kids into confident young innovators. We've taught 500+ children the skills to build real connected devices and become the next generation of tech creators.
Fizon Tech's IoT for Kids programme teaches students how to build real connected devices, not just use them. Sessions are hands-on and project-based, and we run them in schools, colleges and weekend workshops across Tamil Nadu, with partner schools and training centres in Dubai. Students learn electronics, Arduino and Raspberry Pi, coding in block languages, Python and C++, sensors, Wi-Fi connectivity and robotics. More than 500 students have already moved from curious beginners to confident young makers who design and present their own projects.
The programme runs in three levels, Explorer (ages 8–12), Builder (ages 12–17) and Innovator (ages 17–22), so every student starts in the right place and progresses on a clear path, finishing with a certificate and the chance to compete at regional STEM fairs.
We are an engineering company first, and that shapes how we teach. Fizon Tech was founded in Trichy in 2022, won the Smart India Hackathon 2022 Grand Finale in the hardware category, has been supported through STPI Umagine Chennai and more than 5 lakh rupees in government grants, and has delivered 150+ projects for clients in 12+ countries. The people who plan these sessions also ship production hardware and software, so children are taught the way a working engineer actually works: read the datasheet, wire it carefully, change one thing at a time, and write down what happened.
Parents, school principals and college coordinators can all enrol students, and we will recommend the format that fits. Schools in the UAE can bring the programme to their students through our UAE IoT partnership, and organisations that need devices built rather than taught can look at our hardware sourcing and procurement service.
500+ kids taught through practical, project-based learning that makes technology tangible.
Kids learn how everyday connected devices work, including sensors, actuators and wireless communication, through hands-on experiments they build themselves.
Programming and assembling robots that move, sense and respond. Children develop logical thinking and problem-solving through building real machines.
Age-appropriate programming, from visual block-coding for beginners to Python and C++ for advanced learners, building real working projects.
End-to-end project challenges where kids design, build and present their own technology creations, developing confidence and creativity.
Weekend workshops, school programmes and holiday tech camps, with flexible formats designed around children's schedules and learning styles.
Children receive Fizon Tech certificates upon completion, plus opportunities to showcase projects at regional STEM fairs and competitions.
Levels are set by what a student can already do, not only by age. A twelve-year-old who has never wired an LED starts in Explorer and moves up quickly; a fifteen-year-old who already writes Arduino sketches joins Builder mid-term. We agree the level after a short conversation and a trial session.
Explorer is about making electricity visible. Students work on a breadboard with LEDs, resistors, push buttons, a buzzer, a light-dependent resistor, a DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor and an SG90 servo. Code starts in block form and in the Tinkercad Circuits simulator, so a wrong connection costs nothing, then moves onto real hardware.
By the end of the level a student has built a working traffic-light sequence, a lamp that switches itself on when the room goes dark, a door alarm and a small temperature display, and can explain what each wire is doing. Everything runs at 5V from a USB supply, with no mains wiring at any point.
Builder moves to typed code. Students write C++ in the Arduino IDE on an Arduino Uno R3, then move to an ESP32 once they need Wi-Fi. They work with the HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor, DHT22, PIR motion sensor, soil moisture probes and the MPU6050 accelerometer, and drive real outputs through a relay module, an L298N motor driver, servos, a 16x2 LCD and an SSD1306 OLED.
Projects at this level are proper builds: a line-following robot, an obstacle-avoiding rover, a plant watering system that turns the pump on when soil moisture drops below a threshold the student chooses, and a room monitor that publishes readings over MQTT to a phone dashboard. Students learn to read a serial monitor, isolate a fault and check a value before blaming the code. Supervised soldering is introduced here.
Innovator is closer to engineering practice than to a class. Students work on a Raspberry Pi 4 or Pi Zero 2 W in Python, use MicroPython on the ESP32 through Thonny, run their own MQTT broker, store readings in a database and chart them, and connect a device to a simple REST API. Depending on the project they also touch OpenCV basics for camera work, power budgeting for battery-run devices, enclosure design for 3D printing, a first two-layer PCB in KiCad and version control with Git.
The level ends with a self-directed project run like a small engineering job: a problem statement, a bill of materials, a build log, a working demo and an honest account of what failed. Students who want to take these skills further can see where they lead in our custom AI software projects and our end-to-end software engineering work.
Sessions follow the same shape every week so students always know what is coming: a short recap and a demonstration of the day's idea, twenty minutes on the concept with a live circuit on the bench, an hour of build time with instructors moving between benches, a debugging clinic where broken projects are fixed in front of everyone, and ten minutes to show progress and pack the kit away.
One rule holds across all three levels. Every session ends either with something that works, or with a written note in the build log saying where it stopped and what to try next week. Students who miss a session get the notes and a catch-up slot rather than being left behind.
Weekend cohorts usually meet once a week for a term. School programmes normally take one period a week across a term, or run as a compressed camp of consecutive days during the holidays, which suits schools that cannot free up a weekly slot. Online cohorts run in smaller groups, with the kit sent ahead so students are wiring real components rather than watching a screen. Colleges often prefer an intensive block before their project season.
Kits are included in the programme, and students do not buy anything separately to take part.
We source components through our own electronics sourcing team, so a burnt-out sensor or a snapped jumper wire is replaced in days rather than a school waiting on a distributor. Robotics hardware bought for a school lab stays with the school and is re-used by later cohorts.
Introduction to electronics, components and how things connect. Kids explore and ask why. No prior knowledge is needed.
Guided projects where children assemble their first circuits, sensors and code, learning through doing, not just watching.
Kids design their own IoT project from scratch, solving a real-world problem they care about, with mentor guidance.
Children present their projects, receive certificates and get the opportunity to compete in regional STEM showcases.
There is no written exam. Each level has practical checkpoints, and an instructor signs one off only when the student can do it unaided: read a simple circuit diagram, wire it correctly, explain in their own words what a line of code does, and find the fault in a project that has stopped working.
The build log matters as much as the finished device. A student who documents a failed attempt clearly, and can say what they would change, has understood more than one whose project happened to work first time. Final projects are judged on three things: whether the device does what it claims, whether the student can explain it under questions, and how the parts that went wrong were handled.
Students receive a Fizon Tech certificate on completing a level, naming the level and the final project rather than just the course title, so it means something to a school or a college interview panel. Parents get a short written note on what their child can now do independently and what to work on next, and schools receive a cohort summary at the end of each term.
Competitions give students a deadline and an audience, which changes how seriously they build. Explorer and Builder students are prepared for school and district science exhibitions, Atal Tinkering Lab challenges where the school has an ATL, and robotics contests such as the World Robot Olympiad and FIRST LEGO League. Innovator students are mentored towards college-level hackathons, including the Smart India Hackathon. Our own team won the Smart India Hackathon 2022 Grand Finale in the hardware category, and we coach students the same way we prepared for it: work backwards from the judging criteria, get a rough demo running early, and rehearse the questions about what could fail.
Schools work with us in one of two ways. Either we bring instructors and kits and run the sessions ourselves, or we train the school's own science and computer teachers to deliver the programme with our lesson plans, kits and assessment sheets behind them. The second option costs less over time and keeps the knowledge inside the school; the first is easier to start with.
Across Tamil Nadu we deliver in classrooms, computer labs and Atal Tinkering Labs, working from Trichy and travelling to schools in the surrounding districts. Where a school already has an ATL, we start with an audit of what is on the shelves, because most labs own more usable hardware than anyone realises and there is no reason to buy a second set of ultrasonic sensors. The programme is scheduled as a club period, an activity slot or an after-school batch, whichever the timetable allows, and colleges usually run it as a pre-project intensive for final-year students.
In Dubai the programme runs with partner schools and training centres, coordinated from our Dubai office, using the same three levels and the same assessment checkpoints as in India. Instruction is in English, with Arabic-language support available through partner instructors. Kits are shipped and supported through our sourcing team so schools are not importing components themselves. Schools, training centres and community organisations that want to run the programme under their own name can license the curriculum, have their instructors trained and certified, and buy hardware at our supplier rates through the Fizon Tech UAE partnership programme.
The same seven steps apply in Trichy and in Dubai. Nothing is signed before a school has seen a session run with its own students.
The programme is for students aged 8 to 22, split into three levels: Explorer (8–12), Builder (12–17) and Innovator (17–22). No prior knowledge is needed to start at the Explorer level.
We run in-person workshops in schools, colleges and community centres across Tamil Nadu, and with partner schools in Dubai. We also offer online formats with the kit posted ahead. We recommend the right format based on the student's age, level and location.
No. Kits are included in the programme. Explorer includes a take-home kit, and Builder includes an Arduino and sensor kit, so students can practise between sessions. Robotics hardware bought for a school lab stays with the school.
Explorer assumes nothing. It begins with block coding and a circuit simulator before any typed code, and every component is introduced on the bench first. Older beginners join Builder and spend the first sessions on the basics of C++ in the Arduino IDE. Patience with debugging matters far more than previous experience, and we place every student after a trial session rather than by age alone.
Yes. Everything at Explorer and Builder level runs at 5V or 3.3V from a USB supply or a battery pack, and students never work with mains wiring. Soldering is introduced only from the Builder level, supervised, with ventilation and eye protection. Motors, power tools and anything sharp stay with the instructor, and a member of school staff is present during school sessions.
We design IoT and STEM workshops for schools and colleges across Tamil Nadu, starting with a call, a site check and a demonstration session with one class. Contact us to plan a programme for your students. Schools in the UAE can join through our UAE IoT partnership.
Yes. Students receive a Fizon Tech certificate on completion, naming the level and the final project, along with opportunities to showcase their projects at regional STEM fairs and competitions.
Follow the seven engagement steps above. Send the student numbers, year groups and the slot you can offer, and we will come back with a written proposal and possible dates for a demonstration session. Institutions in the Emirates start through the UAE partnership route, which also covers curriculum licensing and instructor training.
Fees depend on the format, the cohort size, the level and whether kits go home with students or stay in a school lab, so we quote per cohort rather than publishing one price. The quote includes kits, instruction, assessment and certificates, and it is given in writing before anything begins. Community organisations and government schools should say so when they contact us, as we hold subsidised rates for them.
Tell us the student's age and where you are, whether that is Tamil Nadu, Dubai or online, through the contact form on our homepage, or call the number below. We will reply with the level we recommend, the date of the next cohort, what the kit contains and the fee in writing. If you are a school, ask for the demonstration session first.
