PYNQ Bootcamp
Date:
A week-long embedded systems bootcamp for 8th–12th grade students, delivered with a mix of talks, hands-on tutorials with Jupyter Notebooks, and specialised breakout sessions. Topics included microprocessors, FPGAs, basic I/O, audio processing, computer vision, robotics, and Python. The students then completed their own hackathon projects on the theme of sustainability. One system was an autonomous janitor that used computer vision techniques to identify trash and clean it up!
