KCL Tech Event Recap: K+ Outreach Event

Hi everyone!

I'm excited to share with you a fantastic event that took place last Wednesday, where KCL Tech, alongside other societies, had the privilege of showcasing hands-on demonstrations to 50 sixth form and college students.

Partnering with RIE and the team lead, Jun (Dimitri) Zhang, who organised the SGL project featuring an AI robot, we had the opportunity to present this innovative project to the students.

During the event, students were able to control the robot, causing it to move and even shoot a bullet at a target we set up. It was truly remarkable to see the students engage with the demonstration, employing tactics to aim the bullet perfectly at the bullseye.

The enthusiasm displayed by the students was inspiring, with many expressing interest in pursuing computing or engineering for their future endeavors. It was incredibly rewarding to witness the impact we were able to make through this event.

A special thank you goes out to our dedicated KCL Tech stall holders: Dimitri, Minseok Ryu, and Neel Nair. I personally had the pleasure of learning from their expertise, and I'm grateful for their contributions to making this event a success. I also want to extend my gratitude to everyone who worked on the AI robot. Their hard work and dedication were instrumental in the success of this event.

Looking forward to more impactful events in the future!

Until next time :)
