Week 1 and 2 Media Literacy

Media literacy 



The goal of these workshops is to help you get comfortable with the tools needed for your assignments, many of which will be used in class. We'll cover basics like image, audio, and video handling through practical exercises. While we won't dive deeply into all editing skills, we encourage you to develop them independently, and teamwork can aid in this through collaboration. We'll also point you towards helpful resources for acquiring these essential skill

Ownership and copyright

When it comes to copyright, it's essential to adhere to regulations concerning media usage. Seek permission if content is copyrighted, and acknowledge the original creators when utilizing their work. Familiarize yourself with fair use principles, public domain, and Creative Commons licenses to guarantee appropriate usage and prevent plagiarism.

RGB Values
RGB values are fundamental in digital imaging, representing colors by mixing red, green, and blue intensity values from 0 to 255. Adjusting these values creates different colors, widely used in digital displays and imaging devices.


Youtube tutorials


When starting to learn about Arduino step by step, it's important to search online thoroughly for tutorials that suit how I learn and where I am in terms of skill level. Actively engaging with these tutorials will help me understand the basics of Arduino and how to apply it practically. Whether I'm just starting out or already have some experience, there are plenty of tutorials on platforms like YouTube, forums, and educational websites that cater to different learning needs. Remember, getting good at Arduino takes time and effort, so it's important to keep exploring and learning from various resources.

Video strategy – social media – product you developed

For video content strategy on social media or showcasing your product, tools like CamStudio are valuable for recording desktop activities with audio commentary, simplifying the documentation and sharing process.

persistence data

In the digital realm, data persistence presents challenges as activities leave traces through various devices like phones, computers, and gaming consoles. Even as society evolves, this data persists, telling stories we might prefer to ignore.

Week 11-17 Group Project

Image
  In our group project, my friends Shakline, Nelushan, and I teamed up to create something exciting: a lie detector machine. Our aim was to use Arduino technology to figure out when someone might be lying. We used two fancy sensors: one to measure heart rate changes (ECG sensor) and another to track sweat levels on the skin (GSR sensor). These changes often happen when someone is feeling stressed, like when they're not telling the truth. To complete our lie detector setup, we also placed the skin sensor between two fingers. This sensor helps measure changes in skin conductivity, which can indicate stress levels. By positioning it this way, we could get accurate readings of how much a person might be sweating, adding another layer to our detection system. For our lie detector, we placed the pads of the ECG sensor on different pulse points. We used three colors of pads: green, yellow, and red. Each color was for a specific pulse point. We had a picture showing where to put the pads ...

  Recommender systems Exploring Recommender Systems: Shaping User Experiences This week's exploration led me into the fascinating world of recommender systems, which play a vital role in shaping the user experiences of modern online platforms like Netflix and Amazon. Throughout this journey, I delved into understanding how these systems personalize recommendations based on individual preferences derived from past interactions. Harnessing Data for Personalization Recommender systems harness various data inputs, including user behavior and item characteristics, to suggest products or content tailored to each user. Beyond enhancing user experience, these systems are essential for businesses to stay competitive by quickly adapting to consumer needs and staying ahead of technological advancements. The Role of Machine Learning in Recommender Systems A key aspect of our exploration was uncovering the role of machine learning in powering recommender systems. Machine learning algorithms an...

week 21 Intro too AI

Image
  Intro too AI This week, we delved into the XOR challenge, a key puzzle in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) that initially stumped early AI models. The XOR (exclusive OR) logic gate is simple yet tricky: it outputs true only when the inputs differ. For a while, early neural networks couldn’t crack it due to its non-linear nature, highlighting a crucial limitation in AI's early days. Addressing this puzzle required a rethink of neural network design. By integrating more layers and employing varied activation functions, these networks gained the ability to grasp the XOR’s complexities, marking a leap forward in AI's capability to solve non-linear problems. Our practical exploration involved programming an Arduino Uno to tackle the XOR problem with a neural network. This setup included configuring the network with layers for input, hidden processing, and output, then training it with appropriate data. The training process is pivotal: through repeated cycles, the network ...
