INSIGHT

Researchers will demonstrate some principles of computer science in a way that is accessible and fun for primary school-aged children through the use of paper-based puzzles and games in the spirit of the CS-Unplugged initiative.

Also, the fun coding game Cubetto will be on show to demonstrate how the basic principles of coding can be instilled in children in a fun and interactive way without the use of a computer. On Saturday only, researchers will demonstrate the simple description of biomechanics of walking and human activity monitoring using wearable sensors  plus making a ramp walking toy to explain the mechanics of walking. On Sunday, researchers will showcase the artificial intelligence tool called DALL-E which is an AI system that creates realistic images and art from a textual description.
