Challenges in game theory the likes of Deep Blue and AlphaGo have inspired generations of AI enthusiasts and researchers. Your objective is to design, build and teach a robotic manipulator arm to play the classic game of Backgammon. Your team will be able to test their knowledge of robotics, computer vision, game theory and neural networks. The team will have access to a LEGO Mindstorms EV3 kit and a Raspberry Pi board & webcams to design and build the system. MathWorks offers several hardware support packages for MATLAB and Simulink to simplify deployment of these kits and boards.
