AlphAI is a software program that combines robotics and AI. Configure different types of learning, from beginner mode (load already optimized configurations) to expert mode (control all AI parameters). Visualize algorithms: K-nearest neighbors, deep learning, etc. Train your robots intuitively. Create robot races, line-following courses, mazes and other fun and educational activities. Open the AI Black Box Thanks to a unique interface. But how to interact? Innovation! A unique solution to see and interact with AI Algorithms AlphAI is the only software that, thanks to its graphical interface, makes learning algorithms (deep learning, KNN, etc.) accessible. It presents them in a visual and intuitive way, then allows you to take control of them, from beginner mode for a “plug & play” experience to expert mode for programming the AI in Python! Visualize!Enter the Deep Learning Network Simple Network Understand in Details On simple learning scenarios, understand and teach step by step how artificial neural networks work. Draw connections inside the network yourself and observe the consequences on the robot’s movements. Thanks to multiple displays (activity values, thickness of connections, colors for learning, etc.), explain visually the learning equations that automatically optimize these connections. Complex networks Scale Up Activate the camera and the intermediate layers of neurons and see how the simple principles detailed in the Simple Network allow the learning of complex behaviors (obstacle avoidance, pushing a ball, etc.) after scaling up to thousands of neurons and hundreds of thousands of connections. You have in front of you all the calculations made, but they are so numerous that we still miss something, isn’t it fascinating? Other algorithms Decide like your neighours Discover – still very visually – other Machine Learning algorithms. In particular, the K-nearest neighbors algorithm, which is part of several high school curricula, is particularly intuitive and adapted to introduce supervised learning. Then compare its results to those of neural networks, on the same training database Control!Take the Lead Standard Let us Guide You Select the standard display mode to see only the most common settings. Most importantly, load example configurations to effortlessly run pre-set supervised or reinforcement learning scenarios. Advanced Start your own learning process Test your own learning by selecting the sensors used as inputs, the allowed actions, the reward mode for reinforcement learning. Finally, select and configure the AI algorithm, for example to test what the intermediate neurons serve to… Expert For Professionals Use the AlphAI platform to debug your learning model, test the most advanced parameters, study the properties of individual neurons, etc. Code!Program in Python "Classical" Programming Learn to program with AlphAI A dedicated Python library allows you to take control of the robot from the computer with simple instructions to direct the motors, retrieve sensor data, and program paths, maze exit, etc., without necessarily requiring AI. It is also possible to run Python code directly on the Raspberry Pi for faster reaction times. Program the AI A Modular approach Choose the “student code" algorithm option and code the one of your choice in the popping-up Python window: the AlphAI platform takes care of all the input-output machinery and you focus on the most interesting! Even easier than AI, program your own reward function to make AlphAI learn new behaviors. Our curricula provide examples exercises to practice basic programming skills while coding an AI. Other systems AI Everywhere? We are working on making the AlphAI software compatible with other robots and automated systems, so that they can be driven by machine learning. You will also be able to carry out your own projects to develop new materials to be controlled with AlphAI. The Software The software is designed to run on a PC without internet connection. However, it requires a Wi-Fi connection to communicate with the robot. The robot is sold with one license for 30 computers or 2 computers. The software has a simulated version of the robot, allowing up to 30 students (for the purchase of the first AlphAI), to learn and experience AI when the robot is not connected.
