A.I. Emotion Detector
Students train a computer to use a webcam to detect and respond to different emotions using machine learning (Google Teachable Machine) while getting first-hand experience by coding a MicroBit to handle the algorithm using the Vittascience Adacraft Platform. As they train a digital system to interact intelligently with the real world, they will experience the limitations of classical computing and learn about the powerful capabilities quantum computing can unlock.

Skeletal Tracking
Object detection and motion tracking currently depend on sophisticated algorithms and equipment. As quantum computing further develops and expands the capacity of machine learning, these systems will become increasingly accurate. In this activity, students will build a system that uses a webcam and a 3D printed flower to allow a user to control the color of the flower (LED) wirelessly through a skeletal tracking program they create using A.I.

About the program
Preparing for the Quantum Age
Brought to you by the Chattanooga Quantum Collaborative and EPB, Gig City Goes Quantum is a joint effort to prepare our communities to reap the rewards of the coming Quantum Age. Because quantum technologies promise transformative advances, we’re growing a “quantum ecology” beginning with students interested in preparing for jobs in this rapidly emerging sector. We are educators, scientists, entrepreneurs, and community leaders focused on working together to realize the vast technological and economic potential of accelerating the commercialization of quantum technologies.
