Ever wondered how AI can run on a tiny device instead of relying on the cloud?
Step into the world of Edge AI and discover how intelligent systems are built, deployed, and optimized for real-time applications. From mastering Linux fundamentals and Python programming to developing computer vision applications and deploying YOLO on a Raspberry Pi, this workshop equips you with practical, industry-relevant skills through hands-on learning.
The workshop will feature an expert talk by Dr. Sadia Noureen on "AI for Intelligent Optical Systems," highlighting the transformative role of artificial intelligence in next-generation photonic technologies. This will be followed by an extensive hands-on training session led by Ehsan Ilyas, where participants will gain practical experience with Linux, Python, Computer Vision, and the deployment of YOLO on edge devices.
Designed purely for skill development; no cost, just learning.

We're excited to announce a 2-Day Hands-on 3D Modelling Workshop for Optical Systems: Sketch. Model. Refine. Build.

Over two hands-on days, you'll learn how to translate concepts into working 3D models, build the critical thinking that good design demands, and master the step-by-step procedure of modelling optical systems from the ground up. We'll be working entirely in SolidWorks, so you'll walk away with practical, tool-based experience you can carry straight into your own projects.

This workshop is designed purely for skill development: no cost, just learning.
