Interactive Technology and AI (5cr)

Evaluation scale

H-5

Objective

Upon completing the Interactive Technology and AI course, students will be able to:
- Calculate and interpret AI evaluation metrics.
- Propose and integrate a relevant and feasible AI solution into an interactive technology application.
- Find and critically apply relevant academic research toward solving an engineering challenge.
- Design and implement an experiment to test AI interventions for or stemming from interactive technology applications.

Content

At the start of the course, students will go through a groundwork phase where they will attend a series of lectures on the latest AI techniques and what they mean for the interactive technology industry. These lectures will also contain material on how to critically evaluate AI solutions, both quantitatively and for practical feasibility.

After the groundwork phase, students will enter an individual conceptualisation phase. During this phase, students will be presented with a real-world problem from one of the Futuristic and Interactive Technologies research group’s RDI projects. Students are expected to consult academic literature and other reputable sources to conceptualise an AI implementation for the problem they were presented.

Upon completing the conceptualisation phase, students will commence a practical phase where they will be placed into a team to either implement the output of their conceptualisation phase or scientifically test an existing AI application.
