AI + Drone Innovation Lab
- WHO IT IS FOR: Middle and high school students ages 11–17 with a passion for technology and innovation.
- WHAT IT IS ABOUT: An immersive exploration of drone engineering, 3D design, and AI-powered coding.
- FORMAT: A multi-day, hands-on innovation lab featuring build sessions, design challenges, and coding workshops.
Join the AI + Drone Innovation Lab for an exciting journey into the future of technology. Led by AI educator Brian Loeswick, students will transition from learners to creators as they explore the intersection of robotics and artificial intelligence. This comprehensive program is designed for beginners, requiring no prior experience in coding or 3D design.
Over three sessions, participants will master drone anatomy by building their own aircraft and taking their first flights. The experience expands into a real-world rescue mission, where students use 3D modeling and printing to design custom carriers for emergency deliveries. The lab culminates in an AI Vibe coding session, where students use cutting-edge AI tools to control their drones, learn Arduino basics, and solve complex communication mysteries.
