Quick! Tell me - how do you see? How are you reading this text? How do you recognize people, see colors, identify objects... ? Computer vision studies how to make programs that see like humans. We'll look into human vision, light, image representations, and fundamental computer vision techniques. Then, we'll do some programming and get hands on experience with a computer vision library.


C10431: Dynamic Web Programming with JavaScript and NodeJS in Spark 2016 (Mar. 12 - 13, 2016)
Already know some HTML & CSS? Come learn how to make exciting, dynamic webpages with JavaScript! We'll refresh our HTML knowledge, learn how JavaScript can be used in the browser, and talk a bit about how the internet works. Then, we'll move on to make our own web servers in NodeJS: a JavaScript powered backend for web apps. By the end, we'll have made our own super cool chat server!


W10438: Juggling in Spark 2016 (Mar. 12 - 13, 2016)

C9876: Intro to Animation & Game Making in JavaScript in Splash 2015 (Nov. 21 - 22, 2015)
Enjoy playing games? Enjoy playing with computers? Let's combine the two! We'll explore the basics of JavaScript and programming, and then talk about animation, drawing, and user interaction. Make pong, an avoider game, or something of your own invention! No previous programming or JavaScript experience is required. If you have experience, that's great too - we'll just make even cooler stuff (and you can learn some JS drawing libraries). You'll get to take everything you make home and even upload it to the web if you like.
