(MENAFN- 3BL) The AMD PYNQTM Bootcamp, now in its sixth year, is an annual hackathon-style event for middle and high school students, held in collaboration with the St. Vrain Valley School District. Hosted at the Innovation Center in Longmont, Colorado, a facility dedicated to technology and innovation, the bootcamp provided students with hands-on experience using AMD KriaTM starter kits to explore AI and machine learning.

During the weeklong bootcamp, students were introduced to artificial intelligence focusing on real-world applications of machine learning. They were introduced to topics such as computer vision powered by AMD technology and learned about data collection using various sensors to train AI models.

AMD Longmont interns developed and hosted the event, creating training materials, facilitating the hackathon and supporting the students' project pitches at the showcase. Many of them returned from previous terms here, and some even participated in PYNQ Bootcamps themselves in years prior to their internship. This highly successful event not only introduces students to AMD technology but may also inspire them to pursue engineering, fostering a future talent pipeline that could lead them to AMD one day.
