Session Leaders: Pedro Oliveira

Created By: Pedro Oliveira

Today we no longer solely communicate with computers through a graphical user interface. As a consequence of the internet leaving the flat screen, alternative forms of interaction are increasingly becoming more ubiquitous. Designing for these new connected devices requires a different approach. From HAL 9000 to Amazon Alexa, this class presents an overview of methods, technologies and design challenges that are required to build Voice User Interfaces - VUI. Over the course of the weekend (2 days), campers will appropriate existing technologies, analyze examples of Voice Interfaces (in sci-fi, popular culture, art installations, connected devices).

  • Part 1: Intro to Voice Interfaces
  • Part 2: Google AIY kit (build voice interfaces using raspberry pi)
