AIY Projects: Updated kits for 2018
Blog post from Google Cloud
AIY Projects has launched updated versions of its DIY kits, Voice Kit and Vision Kit, designed to integrate AI into STEM learning and enable makers to build AI-powered devices. These kits are now more user-friendly with clearer instructions, a new Android app for wireless setup, and all necessary components, including the Raspberry Pi Zero WH and pre-provisioned SD card, included in one package. The Voice Kit allows users to create a voice-controlled speaker, while the Vision Kit enables them to build a camera capable of recognizing people and objects. The kits, which are available at Target stores and online, aim to equip students with essential computer science skills for future careers by supporting educators in integrating these tools into STEM lesson plans. AIY Projects is also working on expanding global availability and enhancing the kits based on user feedback collected at events like the Maker Faire and the ISTE conference.
