Who is this presentation for?

  • Developers

Prerequisite knowledge

  • A basic knowledge of Python

What you'll learn

  • Learn how to make use of the Google AIY Projects kits to prototype machine learning on embedded hardware

Description

The AIY Projects kits bring Google’s machine learning algorithms to developers that have limited experience in the field, to allow them to prototype machine learning applications and smart hardware more easily. The first Google AIY Projects kits, made available free with the MagPi, the official Raspberry Pi magazine, proved to be so popular that the magazine sold out in a matter of hours. The original Voice Kit allows you to prototype basic but still useful voice interfaces for machine learning applications on the Raspberry Pi. There’s also a Vision Kit that lets you build an image recognition device that can see and identify objects

Alasdair Allan explains how to set up and build the kits and how to use the Python SDK to use machine learning in the cloud and demonstrates how to run TensorFlow applications locally on a Raspberry Pi.
