Capstone design project enhances K-12 engagement with bio-inspired AI and vision concepts, suggesting new pathways to STEM careers.
In the undergraduate design education curriculum, there is a growing recognition of the transformative potential of including bio-inspired design thinking concepts. This paper describes a capstone design project for senior engineering students at UGA that involved integrating bio-inspired AI and vision in K-12 lesson modules. Through the capstone design project, one student team developed a product that integrated bio-inspired vision in a lesson module for K6-8 incorporating state Standards of Learning. The results of student work in terms of final design/product and project experiences are presented and discussed. Implications for engaging K-12 teachers/students through bio-inspired AI and vision design concepts, and inspiring them to pursue STEM careers are discussed.
