This year’s two-day sub-district camps of Little KITEs IT clubs will begin in the State on December 27, with activities involving use of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Activities based on animation and programming will be featured in the camp. AI has been included in the Little KITEs curriculum for the first time this year.
Little KITEs members in animation will create animation films using the ‘Open Toonz’ software based on short stories; edit videos using the ‘Kdenlive’ software; and create animation titles using the ‘Blender’ 3D animation software. Students in the programming section will create games using the ‘PictoBlox’ software; face-recognition-based doors that work on AI and robotics; devices that warn drivers when they fall asleep; and sorting machines that use AI. The training modules used for the trainings in the camp deploy completely free software.
