Highlighting Autonomous Driving Adventures
One of the standout exhibits includes a vision-based autonomous driving project featuring the Maqueen Plus V3 robot and the HuskyLens 2 AI vision sensor. This innovative project transcends traditional line-following techniques by allowing the robot to make complex driving decisions based on its surroundings. Through this activity, students gain a comprehensive understanding of the journey from perception to action within autonomous systems.
Versatility of HuskyLens 2 AI Vision Sensor
The HuskyLens 2 Trainable AI Vision Sensor zone highlights its functionality as a core AI camera suitable for various age groups. Powered by a dual-core processor, this sensor excels in fast, on-device processing using various built-in algorithms. Remarkably, it also supports custom-trained models, enabling flexible interactions and broad compatibility with various controllers.
Exciting Projects for Engaged Learning
DFRobot's exhibit includes several engaging projects that show the exciting applications of AI in hands-on learning.
Gesture-Controlled Gaming Experience
This interactive project merges the HuskyLens 2's gesture recognition capabilities with programming using micro:bit and MindPlus. In this project, students can control the classic game of Angry Birds using hand gestures, promoting a screen-free coding experience that encourages creativity and fun.
Real-Time AI Interaction with Robotics
The Pose Recognition Robot features a cutting-edge interaction between AI vision and robotics. By utilizing the HuskyLens 2, students can control a robot equipped with micro:bit technology, enabling it to replicate human movements in real time. This project illustrates the potential for robotics to respond dynamically to user actions.
Smart Animal Recognition for Real-World Solutions
In another innovative project, students are using the HuskyLens 2 along with the UNIHIKER K10 AI coding board to create a smart feeder that can differentiate between various pets. This project demonstrates how AI can identify animals, launching corresponding actions like feeding based on recognition, showing practical applications of technology in everyday life.
Advanced Night Vision for Wildlife Studies
Designed for middle and high school learners, the Night Vision Wildlife Observation project showcases AI's capabilities in challenging environments. Employing a night vision lens, the HuskyLens 2 can identify animals in complete darkness, demonstrating AI's potential to overcome real-world obstacles.
BOSON Zone: Connecting Real-World Context with AI Learning
In the BOSON Zone, students transition from real-world challenges to a deeper understanding of AI literacy. The BOSON AI Vision Sensor allows younger learners to interact with objects to explore AI detection and learning mechanisms without requiring coding skills. This foundational experience seamlessly connects to more structured programming learning through tools like micro:bit and MakeCode.
DFRobot: A Hub for Practical Learning Experiences
DFRobot's Stand SM23 acts as a vibrant center for educators eager to integrate practical AI and robotics applications in their teaching. The displays will remain open for visitors throughout the duration of BETT 2026, which runs from January 21 to 23, allowing ample time for exploration and interaction.
