1-Day AI+DIY Camp: Create Your Own 3D Holographic Diorama!

Participants will need to bring a tablet or smartphone to the workshop. 

Join us for an exciting 1-day workshop where young minds dive into the fascinating world of AI and DIY! Participants will learn to design and create their own 3D holographic diorama using the HAL51 LemurBox. This hands-on experience is perfect for kids aged 9-15 who are curious about technology, design, and creativity.

Workshop Highlights:

  • DIY Friction-Fit Design: Discover the principles of friction-fit design and build your own 3D holographic hardware without the need for glue or screws.

  • 3D Model Creation: Learn to create and animate your own 3D models using the best 3D educational entertainment apps. Explore a vast universe of over 12 million free 3D models spanning various fields like archaeology, botany, chemistry, architecture, and arts.

  • AI Holographic Avatars: Interact with AI holographic avatars and experience the magic of bringing cute, cartoon-like 3D illusions to life.

  • Custom XR Dioramas: Each participant will build their own LemurBox XR diorama kit, guided by expert instructors through six hands-on educational modules.

  • Presentation & Certificate: The day will culminate in a fun diorama presentation, where participants showcase their creations to parents. All students will receive a certificate of completion and get to take home their LemurBox XR kits.

More About the Workshop:

Three exciting technological revolutions—Artificial Intelligence (Large Language Models), 3D Computer Vision, and Geometric Optics—are converging in this workshop. MakerNexus, in partnership with HAL51 AI, offers a unique, affordable opportunity for kids to explore these cutting-edge fields through engaging, hands-on activities.

Participants will use their own smartphones and tablets to explore the 3D world, learn to download, generate, and animate digital models, and incorporate them into their custom-built LemurBoxes. This multidisciplinary experience will introduce kids to these diverse and exciting academic areas using a single extensible DIY hardware framework. And the best part? They get to take their LemurBox home and continue their learning adventures!

The participants will be split into two age groups: 9-12 & 12-15 & will work on material pertaining to the same modular themes mapping to 2 levels of difficulty (Intro & Advanced)

They will have a lunch break from 12:30-1:00 pm

Spaces are limited, so sign up today!

This was a wonderful introduction to woodworking! The workshop space had so many different interesting projects about which hinted at the creative possibilities. My child who attended really enjoyed their time and came home showcasing the many different things they had built.

So glad your son had a fun time. This is our first year offering a woodworking camp for ages 6-9, and it has been a big success. We love seeing the smiles on their faces when they finish their projects. We hope to see him at another camp!

Questions & Answers
How will Covid concerns be handled? Will there be social distancing in the form of reduced classes and mandatory masks?

We are following all of the County guidelines to keep everyone as safe as possible. We will be enforcing social distancing, as well as requiring masks at all times indoors. We've set up additional work space dedicated to students to give them more room to socially distance. We've limited camp enrollments as well, and will only be offering a single camp each week (typically we have 2-3 camps in various subjects running concurrently). The health and safety of our students and staff is our #1 concern, and we especially want to make sure students have a safe experience here. -

Thank you for your interest,We are working hard on getting the classes online. We have a schedule, but still need to finalize the write ups and photos. Target is to have all set by end of this coming week: There will be a mix of camps from Textiles, robotics, electronics, woodworking and laser/3d printing for a variety of ages. The week of July 4th will be day camps with a different theme each day - those are posted for sign ups already. -
