Google AIY Raspberry Pi Python Basics Course
The course uses the Google AIY Project kit for teaching, allowing students to use the Google AIY Voice + Vision Kit kit to operate with the Raspberry Pi Linux environment, easily learn Linux commands and programming, and learn artificial intelligence technology. In the course, students will use Google AIY Voice Kit for voice commands, self-made music boxes and sound control home decoration and other smart products, use Google AIY Vision Kit, learn face recognition technology, recognize emotions through smiles, make artificial intelligence trash cans, Face tracking car and other smart products.
After completing the course, students can master:
Control Raspberry pi through basic Linux commands
Basic Python programming knowledge and operation
Know basic electronic parts
Artificial intelligence experience and operation
Receive commands via Google AIY
Respond to voice through Google AIY
Make simple device for voice control and intelligent response
Camera module: how to use the camera to shoot
Artificial intelligence: smile/face recognition technology
Artificial intelligence: object recognition technology
Course Features
-
Allows you to learn Linux commands and program with Python in 16 hours using the recently popular Google AIY artificial intelligence voice suite to master artificial intelligence technology. In the classroom, students aim at making inventions and applying them immediately after they learn the knowledge of artificial intelligence. Taking different STEM projects as the basis for learning and using more practical than theoretical, students will make different small projects/products in the classroom, so that they can remember and apply the learned knowledge vividly.
