This is a fun opportunity to apply your robotics and AI skills in a fast-paced environment with peers (and future colleagues!) all across Arizona. This technology is being used across all industries and these skills are valuable to you. More on this here.
Teams of 4-5 students will leverage a Sparkfun Jetbot AI Kit powered by NVIDIA Jetson Nano with Amazon Web Services to build and deploy a model that recognizes your school’s mascots or logo. Sign up by yourself, with a friend or a whole team of 4 or 5. See below for rules and skill requirements.
You will compete against students from Arizona State University, Grand Canyon University, Northern Arizona University, University of Arizona, Maricopa Community Colleges, Ottawa University of Arizona and the University of Advanced Technology.
Join us for a morning of virtual, interactive presentations to raise awareness and understanding of digital access and inclusion for the more than 1 billion people with disabilities and impairments.
The 2021 Global Accessibility Awareness Day virtual conference is a great introduction to accessibility for faculty, staff and students who create online content. Virtually "drop-in" for one or more sessions!
The SparkFun JetBot AI Kit is a robot platform powered by the Jetson Nano Developer Kit by NVIDIA. This SparkFun kit is based on the open-source NVIDIA JetBot! The SparkFun JetBot AI Kit is a great launchpad for creating entirely new AI projects for makers, students and enthusiasts who are interested in learning AI and building fun applications. It’s straightforward to set up and use and is compatible with many popular accessories.
The Jetson Nano Developer Kit offers useful tools like the Jetson GPIO Python library, and is compatible with common sensors and peripherals; including some new python compatibility with the SparkFun Qwiic ecosystem.
