Tiny ML in interactive spaces Arduino X K-WAY Challenge Project
Project Tutorial by fullmakeralchemist

An intelligent device to track moves with responses during an interactive space with mapping, backlight, music and smart sculptures. This project makes use of a machine learning algorithm capable of tracking and detecting moves to identify associated gesture recognition through a microcontroller. Smart sculptures, lighting, music and video projection to trigger with each assigned gesture, creating a powerful AV experience highlighting the incredible potential of TinyML for the performing arts. This allows the corresponding media set Tiny ML in interactive to play when the right move was made because all these elements interact to create a new experience. This allows us to create Interactive installations, these sculptures use a combination of motors, sensors, and other electronics to create an immersive and interactive experience for the viewer. They may include projections, sound, and other sensory elements to create a complete experience.

These projects from CMU incorporate the Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense in clever ways
May 22, 2023

With an array of onboard sensors, Bluetooth® Low Energy connectivity, and the ability to perform edge AI tasks thanks to its nRF52840 SoC, the Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense is a great choice for a wide variety of embedded applications. Further demonstrating this point, a group of students from the Introduction to Embedded Deep Learning course at Carnegie Mellon University have published the culmination of their studies through 10 excellent projects that each use the Tiny Machine Learning Kit and Edge Impulse ML platform. Wrist-based human activity recognition Traditional human activity tracking has relied on the use of smartwatches and phones to recognize certain exercises based on IMU data. However, few have achieved both continuous and low-power operation, which is why Omkar Savkur, Nicholas Toldalagi, and Kevin Xie explored training an embedded model on combined accelerometer and microphone data to distinguish between handwashing, brushing one’s teeth, and idling. Their project continuously runs inferencing on incoming data and then displays the action on both a screen and via two LEDs. Categorizing trash with sound In some circumstances, such as smart cities or home recycling, knowing what types of materials are being thrown away can provide a valuable datapoint for waste management systems. Students Jacky Wang and Gordonson Yan created their project, called SBTrashCat, to recognize trash types by the sounds they make when being thrown into a bin. Currently, the model can three different kinds, along with background noise and human voices to eliminate false positives. Distributed edge machine learning The abundance of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has meant an explosion of computational power and the amount of data needing to be processed before it can become useful. Because a single low-cost edge device does not possess enough power on its own for some tasks, Jong-Ik Park, Chad Taylor, and Anudeep Bolimera have designed a system where

FAQs

CAN AN ORGANIZATION OR COMMUNITY GROUP RUN THE PROGRAM?

The CTC 101 program is primarily aimed at schools, but any group interested in exploring STEAM disciplines can run it.

WHICH CTC 101 PACKAGE DO YOU RECOMMEND?

If it is the first time that an organization, school, or educator is purchasing CTC 101, we recommend selecting the full-package.

If a school already has a CTC 101 program but the educator has never implemented the program, we recommend you to purchase the training and support packages, either together or separately. If the school wants to run a CTC 101 program and the educator is properly trained, the self-learning package is a good choice.

IS IT NECESSARY TO BUY ANOTHER TOOLBOX OR ADDITIONAL MATERIALS FOR THE EDUCATORS TRAINING?

No, educators will be trained using the same materials that their students will use later on. The CTC 101 toolbox contains all of the materials needed for educators training.

WHAT ARE THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS IN THE CLASSROOM?

Schools running the CTC 101 program should have student access to computers with Internet (at least one computer for three students) and the ability to download the required software, a dedicated room that can function as a workshop (or at least a room with tables), and common accessories such as pens, scissors, sticky tape, etc.

Chromebook users need a subscription to run the online editor. To learn more about our chrome app plans for students, click on the following link: https://create.arduino.cc/plans/chrome-app

HOW EDUCATORS CAN GET AN EXTRA YEAR ACCESS TO THE ONLINE PLATFORM?

Users receive access to the online platform for a year. Up to 3 educators and 30 students are granted access through accounts that can be activated one time only. Educators can then add students to the platform at any time within that year. There is an additional package (extended access to the online platform) that allows access to another 3 educators and 30 students for an additional year.

WHAT IS THE CTC 101 TOOLBOX LIFESPAN?  HOW MANY TIMES CAN I REUSE THE TOOLBOX?

The average lifespan of the components in the CTC 101 toolbox is about 2 years.

WHEN DOES THE ONE-YEAR ACCESS TO THE PLATFORM START COUNTING?

The one-year access starts when you first activate the CTC  (input your product key). The year period cannot be stopped and resumed later.

DO THE EDUCATORS AND STUDENTS RECEIVE ANY KIND OF CERTIFICATION?

A certificate upon the program completion is available to download on the platform for both students and instructors.

HOW DO STUDENTS AND EDUCATORS GET CERTIFICATES UPON COMPLETION OF CTC 101?

Certificates are available on the CTC 101 online platform once the program and self-evaluations are completed.

HOW MANY STUDENT CONTACT HOURS / SESSIONS ARE RECOMMENDED TO COMPLETE?

The program is comprised of  five modules with five lessons each, making a total of 25 lessons. It is recommended one hour per lesson for a total of 25 hours.

IS THERE AN EVALUATION SYSTEM FOR STUDENTS ON THE PLATFORM?

The CTC 101 program does not have its own evaluation system. Each educator can evaluate their class in the way they consider most appropriate. However, an implementation of the program is recommended through project-based-learning (PBL).

HOW MANY STUDENTS CAN USE THE TOOLBOX?

It includes boards, shields, components and platform access for a class of up to 30 students to work simultaneously in groups in a project based manner. However, we have found that the best results come from students working in groups of 3 to 4 or a class total of 18 or 24 students.

HOW MANY ARDUINO 101 BOARDS DOES THE TOOLBOX INCLUDES?

There are six Arduino 101 boards in the CTC 101 toolbox.

WHAT LANGUAGES DOES THE ONLINE PLATFORM SUPPORT?

The CTC 101 online platform itself is currently available in English, Spanish, Italian and Catalan; more will be added in the near future.

HOW CAN THE CTC 101 PROGRAM BE INCORPORATED INTO THE CURRICULUM?

We have found that schools have used CTC 101 to work cross curricular and involve different subjects that can be introduced while working with CTC 101 program. This approach provides the perfect opening for going into more theoretical and practical depth on a wide range of subjects. Technology, maths and physics are given subjects for the cross curricular CTC 101 approach, but educators are also encouraged to apply associated parts of it to art, woodwork, sewing, civics, language arts, etc.

This allows educators to incorporate time from several subjects at their school, and bring the school out of the subject locked activities, and into the creative cross curricular ecosystem.

DOES THE CTC 101 PROGRAM HAS BEEN PEDAGOGICALLY EVALUATED?

The CTC 101 program received a quality certification by Kokoa Agency that evaluates pedagogical products and services from the viewpoint of educational psychology, based on 21st century skills and the Finnish understanding of efficient learning. As a sign of a high quality educative program,  the CTC 101 received a Kokoa Education Standard stamp. https://kokoa.io/products/arduino-ctc-101
