RSE Academy Coaching: Learn from the Pros
Dive into coding creativity with RSE Academy’s Project Coaching Sessions! Watch as our expert coaches share their wisdom and guide young coders to success.
At RSE Academy, the journey of each young coder is fueled by not only their passion and ingenuity but also the dedicated guidance of experienced coaches. These mentors play a pivotal role in transforming raw ideas into impactful projects, as was vividly demonstrated in the Codeavour 2021 AI Competition. Let’s delve into some of the projects that were brought to life under the wing of RSE Academy’s coaching team.
The Adventure of Learning: A Maze Game with AI
Project Spotlight: A Maze Game using Face Detection AI and Motion Tracking
About the Project: Under the guidance of RSE Academy coaches, students embarked on an exciting project to create a maze game that incorporates face detection AI and motion tracking. Utilizing Pictoblox, this innovative game challenges players to navigate through mazes not with traditional controls, but by moving their faces in front of a camera. This unique interface introduces players to the concepts of artificial intelligence and computer vision in a fun and interactive manner.
Learning Outcomes: Students learned the basics of AI and motion tracking, gaining hands-on experience in applying these technologies to create engaging game mechanics. They also developed problem-solving skills and creativity, understanding how technology can transform user interaction.

Steering Towards Innovation: Autonomous Cars in Coding
Project Spotlight: Self Driving Autonomous Car in PictoBlox Using Recognition Card Extension
About the Project: With the support and coaching from RSE Academy, students set their sights on the future of transportation by developing a self-driving autonomous car using PictoBlox. This project utilized recognition card extensions to teach the car how to recognize routes and make decisions, simulating real-world autonomous vehicle technology.
Learning Outcomes: Participants delved deep into the principles of automated decision-making and route recognition, essential components of autonomous vehicle technology. The project offered a glimpse into the complexity of creating self-driving systems, encouraging students to think critically about the integration of AI in everyday life.

Empowering Young Minds Through Expert Guidance
The success of these projects underscores the importance of mentorship in the learning process. RSE Academy coaches not only impart technical knowledge but also inspire students to explore, innovate, and think beyond the conventional. By leading these projects, they provide a roadmap for young learners to navigate the complexities of coding and technology, turning daunting challenges into achievable milestones.
Beyond Code: Lessons for Life
Through these projects, students at RSE Academy gain more than just coding skills. They learn the value of perseverance, the importance of creative thinking, and the joy of bringing an idea to fruition. These experiences prepare them not just for future competitions but for a lifetime of innovation and problem-solving.
RSE Academy remains committed to its mission of building the next generation of tech leaders and innovators. By fostering an environment where young minds are guided, challenged, and celebrated, the academy is not just teaching children to code; it’s helping them code to learn, innovate, and ultimately, to make a difference in the world.
