This landmark event, she said witnessed the active participation of over 200 eager students, who were empowered to acquire new skills, put their knowledge into practice, and create impactful solutions for the future.
Nadal's sentiments were echoed by Google's Head of Developer Relations, Sub-Saharan Africa John Kimani who said during the workshop students engaged in captivating hands-on activities such as building their own robots by assembling 3D parts and repurposing used Infinix smartphones.
Mr Kimani said this innovative approach breathed new life into the devices, enabling the students to train the robots to recognise surrounding objects, such as arrows, and respond accordingly by moving left, right, or forward.
Through this process, Kimani said the participants gained valuable insights into the realms of coding, machine learning, and AI recognition processes.
"We are thrilled to preview the mobile application of the CogLabs initiative. Google's emphasis on promoting digital literacy and making learning accessible to all aligns perfectly with the CogLabs mission," said Mr Kimani adding, "This mobile application will empower everyone to explore the world of machine learning and programming, without the need for a laptop, ensuring equal opportunities for all to create their own robotic wonders, wherever they may be."
He said the CogLabs project stands as a testament to Infinix's unwavering commitment to empowering today's youth with cutting-edge technology and smart devices.
