+## Syllabus
+
+The human body is both the source and the expression of emotions. In today’s digital era, where virtual environments mediate social interactions, the body finds new ways to be present, leading to a shift in how emotions are communicated. From an interdisciplinary approach, this workshop explores concepts related to affective computing, embodiment, creative coding and prototyping. Participants will use their bodies to sense and capture its behaviors, and will create prototypes to record this data. They will learn to build DIY wearable sensors to track bodily behaviors and explore ways to transform this information into visual or sound representations. The workshop proposes to introduce embodied interaction as a framework to explore how the experiences of the body can play a significant role in the way we conceptualize and engage with technology.

+## Syllabus
 
-    **Course details will be updated by faculty shortly.**
+This introductory course provides a hands-on overview of integrating AI technology into physical objects through embedded systems. Students will explore basic microcontroller programming (ESP32) and AI services to create a simple interactive object. The course introduces REST API concepts, voice interfaces, and basic hardware integration, demonstrating how AI can be embedded in everyday objects while considering ethical implications. The course also explore how different AIs can be chained together in a multimodal fashion. 
+
+**Keywords: Embedded AI, Physical Computing, Human-Machine Interaction**
+
+### Learning Objectives
+
+- Students will understand the basic concepts of embedding AI systems using microcontrollers and web services
+- Students will play with existing tools (provided by the teachers) to get familiar with the concept of AI chaining and multimodal inputs
+- Students will gain introductory experience with REST APIs and basic I/O interfaces (audio, simple actuators)
+- Students will be exposed to the ethical considerations of embedding AI in consumer objects
+- Students will complete a basic implementation of voice interface and LLM integration
+- Students will grasp fundamental concepts of modular system design
+
+
+### Structure and Phases (Schedule)
+
+The course unfolds across three intensive 3-hour sessions. 
+
+**Day 1 (3 hours)** opens with an introduction and portfolio presentation, followed by an exploration of fundamental AI concepts. Students then survey the current landscape of AI technologies, examining various input and output modalities. The day concludes with hands-on mini-workshops focusing on AI camera applications and the modmatrix multimodal AI tool. 
+
+**Day 2 (3 hours)** is dedicated to technical implementation, beginning with the setup of coding environments and ESP32 hardware configuration. Students then learn REST API fundamentals and network communication protocols, working through practical examples using the Python library. The session concludes with students drafting their deliverable concepts. 
+
+**Day 3 (3 hours)** provides dedicated time for students to develop their projects with instructor guidance, culminating in final presentations where students demonstrate their working prototypes.
+
+
+## Methodological Strategies
+
+Teaching Methods:

+
+## Grading Method
+
+| Percentage  | Description                         |
+| ----------- | ------------------------------------|
+| 50%         | Working Prototype - Summative                     |
+| 25%         | Class Participation - Formative   |
+| 25%         | Final Presentation - Summative                    |
