Hi, I’m
Erkam Tuna Bayoğlu
I build robots, underwater vehicles and software.

About me
Hi! I’m a student at TÜBİTAK Science High School (TÜBİTAK Fen Lisesi), a boarding school. I’m interested in programming, robotics, mechanics, and electronics, and I love making projects and applications in these fields.
Over the years, I’ve been actively involved in robotics competitions like FRC and Teknofest, where I’ve led teams and contributed as the programming lead. My experience mainly includes robot programming, CAD (mainly Onshape and SolidWorks), the foundations of mechanics and electronics, and 3D printing parts using FDM and SLA printers. These experiences have taught me valuable skills in teamwork, leadership, and technical problem-solving.
In the future, I aspire to study computer science and engineering at a leading university, where I can continue making robots and developing new applications to help humanity. Outside of academics and technical projects, I enjoy cycling, playing table tennis, swimming, skating, playing computer games, exploring new technologies, working on personal programming projects, and teaching new things to others.
