Beginner Artificial Intelligence

Beginner Artificial Intelligence Camp

100% VIRTUAL COURSE - HARDWARE NOT REQUIRED

Course Description

The beginner Artificial Intelligence course is focused on developing simple applications using the four main branches of Artificial Intelligence: robotics, computer vision, natural language processing, and machine learning.

You will explore the fascinating and growing field of artificial intelligence and will learn how to program a digital assistant through block-based programming. You will learn how to code for color detection, a mimic robot, a sound-sensitive speaker, and much more!

This course will enable you to take the first steps towards understanding, designing, and implementing solutions for real-world problems using Artificial Intelligence tools. Using scratch programming, you will be immersed in simple AI applications that explore the basic functionalities of artificial intelligence projects. Although this is a 100% virtual course, you can purchase the OhBot Robotic Head 2.1 to see your programming come to life!

What’s included:

• 14 hours of effective learning, plus unlimited creative time through 7 fully documented, self-paced, self-managed learning sequences. See the course syllabus for more details
• Access to our MakerSTEAM web platform
• Computer software application (Windows)
• Official diploma when completing all three Artificial Intelligence courses (Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced)
• Intro to Technologies 4.0 course + Demos
• User manual
• Technical support
• Ability to connect your programming to hardware with the OhBot Robotic Head 2.1 (SOLD SEPARATELY). See the product technical sheet for more details

In this course, you will:

• Get AI programming experience
