This time, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.innova-tsn.com\/en\/\"><strong>Innova-tsn<\/strong><\/a> has participated again by contributing with experts in the technological sector.<\/p>\n<p>32 students aged 11 to 17 have participated in the much-awaited 2021 edition. The students have worked in two groups adapted to their level, they have learned about the different technologies and programming languages and, in a team, they have developed a computer engineering project.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"370\" src=\"https:\/\/www.innova-tsn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Posible-Foto-MAKE-IT-1.jpg\" alt=\"Tecnol\u00f3gico Campus MAKE IT e Innova-tsn\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.innova-tsn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Posible-Foto-MAKE-IT-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.innova-tsn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Posible-Foto-MAKE-IT-1.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.innova-tsn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Posible-Foto-MAKE-IT-1.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.innova-tsn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Posible-Foto-MAKE-IT-1.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>  Systems and Infrastructure manager Jos\u00e9 Manuel Toloba, bringing closer together the technological world to the young people.<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n<h2><strong>A week pervaded with technology<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Campus started with welcome greetings from the Higher Technical School of Computer Engineering director Javier Soriano, who presented the different studies that can be made at the university and about which the participants learned throughout the week.<\/p>\n<p>Each group was supported by two students from the School who, as their instructors, taught them new knowledge and how to put it into practice. The contents they worked on were:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>3D design using <em>OpenSCAD<\/em> and <em>TinkerCAD<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Robotics, building a robot equipped with different sensors and developing Internet of Things projects with <em>Arduino.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Development of mobile applications with <em>Thunkable<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Creation of augmented reality filters and applications using Facebook\u2019s <em>Spark AR Studio<\/em>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\u00a0\n<p>On Tuesday, the students were visited by <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.innova-tsn.com\/en\/who-are-we\/\">Innova-tsn professionals<\/a> <\/strong>Nuria Estebas and Jos\u00e9 Manuel Toloba, who introduced them to the world of <strong>cloud computing<\/strong>, which gives support to and is necessary for most of the applications and services we use every day. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, they were visited by Ram\u00f3n Ram\u00edrez, from Rooted, who initiated them into <strong>cybersecurity<\/strong> concepts and gave them advice so they could apply them in their everyday lives.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Make IT!<\/strong> changed its format midweek and the participants were those who took control of the campus and started developing their own projects. In order to be initiated into this, they were taught by Computer Engineering School teachers Xavier Ferr\u00e9 and Cristian Moral. They learned from them the key aspects of the development of technological solution, the creative process and design it requires, as well as the importance of all this process being focused on the user that will use it.<\/p>\n<p>They devoted the rest of the week to thinking, designing and building their own projects, always with the companion of the instructors, who helped them go deeper into their learning. These projects were developed in teams created by the students themselves on the basis of the affinity relationships that arose in the first days at the campus.<\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0<\/h3>\n<h2><strong>Projects packed with Talent<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The projects developed by the young students ranged from applications developed with Thunkable and other tools, gadgets or robots to social projects. These were the results of the week:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Fermavic<\/em>: an <b>app\u00a0<\/b>that allows people with visual impairment to recognise what is in front of them, in several languages.<\/li>\n<li><em>Marada: <\/em>an <b>app\u00a0<\/b>allowing users to keep control of their daily expenses and it is adapted to both right-handed and left-handed users.<\/li>\n<li><em>Multitaskpp:<\/em>\u00a0an <b>app\u00a0<\/b>which provides users with all kinds of tools to use throughout the day. It is also developed with <em>Thunkable<\/em>. The applications that includes are: a calculator, a note saver, image recognition, a translator, a timer, a text-to-voice converter, maps and the game <em>Akinator<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li><em>Nutritips:<\/em>\u00a0an <b>app\u00a0<\/b>which helps users lead a healthy life and control what they eat to keep fit.<\/li>\n<li><em>\u00bfD\u00f3nde est\u00e1 mi coche?<\/em> : an <b>app\u00a0<\/b>which allows to remember where and how your vehicle has been parked. It uses different sensors from a mobile device for location and an internal management system of the places where it is parked.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>RDIP is a <strong>robot<\/strong> which helps you collect your stuff at home and do different tasks. It is controlled by means of an app developed in <em>Thunkable <\/em>and the prototype of the robot is designed in <em>TinkerCAD<\/em>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em>T.U.R.F.A.E. <\/em>is a home <strong>robot assistant<\/strong> for the elderly. They have developed the prototype in <em>OpenSCAD<\/em>, which is controlled through <em>Thunkable<\/em> and the simulation of its behaviour is developed with <em>Spark AR Studio<\/em>. <em>\u00a0<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Airborne Explorer <\/em>is a <strong>drone<\/strong> devoted to exploration and search in remote places. In its prototype, <em>OpenSCAD<\/em> was used for the drone, <em>Thunkable<\/em> for the controlling application and <em>Spark AR Studio <\/em>to simulate its functioning.<\/li>\n<li><em>Safety<\/em> is a <strong>smart wristband\u00a0<\/strong>which, together with an <strong>app<\/strong>, can detect a risk for the health of elderly people and it allows to call the emergency services. The prototype of the bracelet is made with <em>OpenSCAD<\/em> and the application with <em>Thunkable<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li><em>Lockero<\/em>, a <strong>software<\/strong> to access your home when you forget the keys. The students used <em>Arduino<\/em> for the prototype and different types of sensors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Entretenimiento en Hospitales<\/em> is a <strong>social project<\/strong> which seeks to accompany people who may stay in hospital or isolated for a long time. They developed the different models with <em>TinkerCAD<\/em> and included them within different <em>Instagram<\/em> filters with <em>Spark AR Studio<\/em>. \u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fi.upm.es\/web\/makeit\/edicion-2021\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.innova-tsn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/elem\/nt\/Posible-Foto-MAKE-IT-2-scaled-pa6wrv7e4rcxmj683emvmckw0ssdy4s1bi5s5dmlqg.jpg\" title=\"Avance Tecnol\u00f3gico\" alt=\"Avance Tecnol\u00f3gico\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n<figcaption>Click the imnage to see more<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/p>\n\u00a0\n<p class=\"is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">When the encampment was finishing, a little game with Kahoot was played where the main concepts worked on throughout the week were reviewed and the good moments and what they have lived those days were remembered. Likewise, participants got a diploma which recognises the good work done throughout the week. In parallel, different skills were fostered such as teamwork, creativity and the care for the environment, through different activities carried out by taking advantage of the surroundings of the Campus.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the <strong>Make IT!<\/strong> organisers created a site in their web so that families and employees can see the work done by the participants and the public presentations they made on the last day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">You can access and see the projects by clicking here:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fi.upm.es\/web\/makeit\/edicion-2021\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Acceder a la Web de Make IT! 2021\" src=\"https:\/\/www.innova-tsn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/icono6_v3.png\" alt=\"Acceder a la Web de Make IT! 2021\" width=\"80\" height=\"72\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>\u00a0<\/h2>\n<h2><strong>Innova-tsn and its project for the Future<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.innova-tsn.com\/en\/\"><strong>Innova-tsn<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0bets on <strong>Talent<\/strong> with the aim of bring young people closer to the <strong>Future<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>These projects offer the opportunity for <strong>young people<\/strong> to get involved in change using the most innovative <strong>technologies<\/strong> like Big Data or Advanced Analytics, expanding their horizons and becoming creative and committed thinkers.<\/p>\n<p>With the goal and commitment of creating a sustainable <strong>future<\/strong>, Innova-tsn will continue participating in, fostering and promoting these activities, whose sponsorship falls within its strategy of betting on said talent from the bottom up.
