Name of Organizing Body:
Collaborated by STEM Education Team & I.T. Team
Topic:
Robocar Rally S.T.E.A.M Project
Goals and Objectives of the workshop:
The goal of the course is to combine Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) with robotics in an environment for a self-directed learning experience and to develop critical thinking for team-based problem-solving. Through this environment, students’ initial contact with AI/ML is designed to be engaging and fun.
The objective is to help them be aware of the possibilities of embedded AI/ML in robotics and help them focus on a specific direction in line with their interests and ability. Building on this experience, participant may make small and incremental steps in realizing their goals.
Scope of Work in the Course:
The robocar will run along the track over 10 times and then upload images to the cloud for machine learning. Then, the robocar have self-driving ability and stay in the driving lane.
