Taleena pitches Syqei to investors at UWA Venture Demo Night. Everything on this site is part of getting ready.
Lab notes
Building Syqei in public.
Short notes from the build. What we tried, what students told us and what we changed. Newest first.
Rebuilding the site around missions
We rebuilt syqei.com for the new model. Missions for secondary schools, run by teachers, built from research. We used the mission's own computer vision ideas as the design, so the site marks things the way a detector would.
Our first pilot
52 Year 9 students from two Perth schools. 48 of 51 liked or loved it. One school was cooler than the other, and one student said it could be more interactive. That was fair, so Mission 001 is now hands-on from the first minute.
Filming with the researchers
We interviewed Dr Jennifer Kelley and Dr Annie Jessop about the moth that fools computers. Students meet them inside the mission.
Picking the first mission
We had dozens of ideas. We picked one small, strange, visual question. Can a flat moth wing fool a computer into seeing 3D? Everything else waited.
