Description
Learn about Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Get hands-on by seeing how AI empowers augmented-reality applications. Explore hand-tracking and pose-tracking applications with a webcam, and how to use MediaPipe’s landmark system. Students create general-purpose image classification and explore common computer vision problems in a simplified environment. Computers never get tired of playing the same game again and again either — students explore how computers can learn without any human intervention using neural networks and more.
Students also explore the ethical design of AI by researching famous failures and successes in fields like medicine, authorship, criminal justice, war, and more. All student work is automatically tracked and assessed; and with access to Tynker's premium offerings, you'll even be able to monitor student progress and mastery charts.
