Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Discover how AI works, even for grade one students!

Age groups: 6 - 12

This summer camp will teach students the basics of artificial intelligence (AI). Students will learn how to create their own machine learning models to classify images, predict labels, and computer vision. This camp is perfect for students who are interested in learning how AI can be used to solve real-world problems. No prior experience with AI is required.

Projects for Ages 6 - 8:

Ripe Fruit Checker:
- Learn how to use machine learning to identify ripe fruits accurately.
- Collect a dataset of fruit images and labels.
- Train a model to classify fruits as ripe or unripe.
- Evaluate the model's performance and fine-tune it for better results.
Head Tilt Detection:
- Discover the power of machine learning in detecting head tilts.
- Gather a dataset of images or videos with tilted and non-tilted heads.
- Extract facial landmarks and key features to represent head orientation.
- Train a model to classify tilted and non-tilted heads.
Snap Clap Whistle:
- Explore the exciting world of audio classification using machine learning.
- Collect a dataset of snap, clap, and whistle sounds.
- Preprocess the audio data and extract useful features.
- Train a model to classify different sounds accurately.
Mask Detection:
- Gather a dataset of images or video frames with people wearing and not wearing masks.
- Train a model to detect and classify mask-wearing accurately.

Projects for Ages 9+:

Build a snake game that is controlled by physical gestures and pictures.
Sorter that sorts different objects using Computer Vision.

Let your child's creativity flow in our Game Development camp! Students will learn how to make fun, graphical video games on either the iPad (for ages 6-8) or the PC (for ages 9 - 12), no coding experience required. Students will replicate famous/classic games, or create their own, by drawing the characters and building the game from the ground up. Along the way, students will learn many game concepts to make their games realistic, challenging, and fun! The end result will be an iPad or a PC game that your child will be proud to let their friends play! See highlights from our Game Development Camp ↗

The Game Development Camp has the following weekly projects that students will be able to build from the ground up:

Angry Birds (iPad, ages 6 - 8):
The game revolves around a group of birds whose eggs are stolen by a legion of green pigs, who wish to eat them. Players sling birds on a slingshot to try and knock down the pigs.

Agar.io (iPad, ages 6 - 8):
Players control a cell in a map representing a petri dish; the goal is to gain as much mass as possible by swallowing smaller cells without being swallowed by bigger ones.

Pac-Man (PC, ages 9 - 12):
The player controls Pac-Man, who must eat all the dots inside an enclosed maze while avoiding four colored ghosts. Eating large flashing dots called power pellets causes the ghosts to turn blue, allowing Pac-Man to eat them for bonus points.

Super Mario (PC, ages 9 - 12):
Mario runs and jumps across platforms and atop enemies, rescuing the kidnapped Princess Peach from the primary antagonist, Bowser.

Thunder Force (PC, ages 9 - 12):
The player controls a plane that shoots down incoming enemies while the screen advances slowly to move the game along.

Our coding camp makes coding fun by having students create original games from the ground up in Scratch (ages 6 -8) or Python (ages 9 - 12). Students will learn the fundamentals of coding, think logically to breakdown complex problems, and practice by creating fun games. After coming to our camp, your child will be well on their way to solving the world's biggest problems! See highlights from our Coding Camp ↗

The Coding Camp has the following weekly projects that students will be able to build from the ground up:

Whac-A-Mole (Scratch, ages 6 - 8):
Moles pop up from their holes at random. The object of the game is to force the individual moles back into their holes by hitting them directly on the head with the mallet, thereby adding to the player's score.

Catch the Dots (Scratch, ages 6 - 8):
The player matches up coloured dots with the correct colour of the controller wheel.

Shoot the Fruit (Python, ages 9 - 12):
The player shoots the fruit when the fruit appears on the screen to accumulate points.

Dance Challenge (Python, ages 9 - 12):
The dancer performs a sequence of moves. The player has to remember the sequence and repeat the moves using arrow keys on the keyboard.

Sleeping Dragons (Python, ages 9 - 12):
The player collects eggs from dragons that sleep and wake up at different times. Dragons wake up and breathe fire. Player loses life if he/she is too close to the fire.
