Abstract
As part of the Temasek Junior College (TJC) Wonder.Observe.Weave! (WOW!) programme, the 5 of us (Aasish, Ethan, Oliver, Qi Lun, Izen) were assigned to learn from the researchers at the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD). This wiki details the events of the month that we spent experimenting, researching, and learning about the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in sanitation tasks.
