AI Assistant In Detail

Python is one of the most popular languages today, and not just in education. It's the most widely-used language for Artificial Intelligence (AI), with many libraries available to handle tasks such as object recognition and classification, face recognition and speech recognition. You'll be programming in Python on an embedded controller that includes a sophisticated 64-bit dual-CPU chip complete with additional dedicated CPUs for audio processing and 'convolutional neural networks'.
So what does all this mean? It means that you'll be programming an incredibly powerful board that has the processing power to recognise images and decode speech. We'll teach you how to do this and more, and along the way you'll create music players, game systems, and security systems with facial recognition. You'll pickup valuable skills in Python and AI - two of the hottest Tech Topics today.
Icebreaker activities and gaming.
Assembling your AI assistant, using the Python REPL, and running a game system on your hardware.
FAQs
Just left my boys’ first Tech Camp. They’ve been at the Chelsea camp all week doing game design in Unity. They loved it and are thinking of doing the robot making one next year. Really professional and helpful staff. Very happy kids.
