I am sure I'll be speaking the minds of everyone on this thread when I say you are entirely right.
We all agree and want to learn the hardware (embedded systems) alongside the programming.
I agree that even the so-called programming many "experts" deploy is based on already existing libraries.
Now there is a good reason for that (such as: global standardisation... we have not seen the last of that yet...more discussion on that is coming).
Yet is is true that local content is best driven when we can actually build from ground level. Perhaps that way we can have our own "standardisation".
However to be fair, on this thread, there truly have been comments on embedded systems and hardware development and even IOT (in the first two pages). What must have caught the most of your attention is the retinue of comments such as ...."I am currently learning python..."
It only shows the skill gap we really and urgently need to fill-up.
The reason the centre I am setting up is called ROBOTICS and AI is that we are not just developing AI for the sake of the financial and marketing sector only. On the contrary, we are looking to deploy AI for Robotic systems, i.e. hardware systems to support infrastructure, agriculture and other needs. IOT is definitely a key component.
The workshop at the centre is specifically for Product Development.
Your comment was timely and beneficial. Kindly share with us how (hardware or software) you would be able to intervene, and in what capacity. Just so we know what background you are coming from. Good response. |

Yes I’m fully aware of DSN. Are you in any way involved in DSN? Maybe we could ask some questions about whether it is limited to only Unilag students and all.
Update: Just ignore me, the link you shared explains it in detail. Thanks Thank you. I'll like to be part of your robotics/artificial intelligence workshop. |

Wow! What an amazing thread. This is the kind of threads where I will like to have a hangout. I'm also interested in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. Are you aware of Data Science Nigeria AI Bootcamp? I wrote an article about it. That's the link below. It might be a good way to start for beginners.
