賽馬會社區創新智能共學計劃—人工智能應用挑戰日

學習、實踐、應用，透過「人工智能應用挑戰日」讓你將看似艱深的人工智能新科技融入日常生活，為視障人士構思解決方案，設利便利他們的無障礙環境。

參賽者將在小組導師的帶領下，和組員一起逐步經歷孕育創新點子的過程。

• 第一步：與用家傾談，認識問題，決定你要解決什麼問題
• 第二步：發揮創意！探索不同方案的可行性
• 第三步：運用不同的人工智能工具及應用程式，測試並改善你的想法
• 第四步：最後，向評判介紹你的點子吧！

這將不僅是學習人工智能，更是強化跨學科知識，訓練分析、解難和表達等能力的機會。現在就報名參加吧！

挑戰日主題：以人工智能設計便利視障人士的無障礙賽環境

在人類所有感官中，視覺或者是我們在日常生活中最依賴的一種。街道、餐廳、商場及其他公共空間都是以視覺主導設計，所以視障人士在過馬路、點餐及購物時面對不少困難。我們如何可以重新設計公共空間，讓每個人都能安全地享用各種設施和服務？

學生將於挑戰日圍繞這個主題，了解用家的需求，並運用人工智能設計有效又實用的解決方案。

Learn, practice and apply Artificial Intelligence (AI) to create solutions that will improve public accessibility for people with visual impairment on the Challenge Day!

What to expect?

You will go through a journey of developing innovative ideas with your teammates gradually under the guidance of a dedicated mentor.

• Step 1: Interview the users, identify the problem and decide which area you want to address
• Step 2: Let your creativity flow and explore different solution ideas
• Step 3: Make use of AI tools and applications to test and modify your idea
• Step 4: Finally, present your idea to the judges!

It is not only an opportunity to learn about artificial intelligence, but also a rewarding experience to strengthen interdisciplinary knowledge, train analytical, problem solving and presentation skills. Sign up now!

Why Choose Accessibility

Out of all the human senses, vision is perhaps the one we depend on the most in daily life. The streets, restaurants, shopping malls and most other public spaces are designed only for people that can see. Public spaces are often very inaccessible to a person with visual impairment; they can not see incoming cars on the street, read the menu in the restaurant, or understand the price tags in the shops, etc. How can we redesign public spaces so they can be enjoyed safely by everyone, regardless of their ability to see?

Artificial Intelligence can offer many new opportunities for clever solutions, via computer vision or voice controlled interactions. The students will be challenged to work within this theme, understand the needs of the users, and develop ideas for an innovative AI solution.

Practical Details

Date: 24 & 25 September 2022 (Sat & Sun)

Time: 10:30am – 2:00pm (24 Sep) | 10:30am – 2:30pm (25 Sep) *Lunch break included

Application

Participants may sign up for the Challenge Day either individually or as a team. If registering as a team, 3 participants will be allowed. Individual registrations will be paired with other students of approximately the same age to form a team of 3 participants. Your team will be placed in either the Senior Primary, or Secondary division to compete, based on the age of the oldest member of your team.

Successful applicants will receive a confirmation email from Makerbay Foundation outlining the details. Please note that completing registration in Eventbrite does not imply the application is successful.

Prizes

Winning teams will receive educational gifts and certificates. All participating students can receive a Certificate of Participation.

「人工智能應用挑戰日」為「賽馬會社區創新智能共學計劃」的核心活動之一，計劃由香港賽馬會慈善信託基金損助，MakerBay Foundation主辦，透過匯集青少年、家長、學校、社區組織和不同行業的專才參與，以活動方式學習、交流及運用所學的東西去解決社區問題。

As a core activity of the Jockey Club AI Community Innovation Programme, a programme funded by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust and organised by MakerBay Foundation, the Challenge Day will bring together participants from schools, communities, and the industry to learn, play and solve real-world problems with artificial intelligence.
