Overview

Building intelligent classrooms through NVIDIA’s Jetson Edge AI

As part of CS 210, my team and I worked with NVIDIA to build Jet, a multimodal Edge AI classroom assistant that uses voice, computer vision, and real-time student feedback to help instructors adapt their teaching as a lecture unfolds.

01

Voice turns the lecture into a live record of what's being taught

02

Computer vision reads engagement signals across the room

03

Real-time student feedback lets instructors adapt mid-lecture

Problem

The modern classroom is largely passive

A lecturer speaks, and students struggle to simultaneously listen, process, and take notes. While there are many tools that support remote learning, in-person learning still offers limited real-time support for helping students engage with and understand material as it is being taught.

Opportunity

Edge AI can make the classroom more interactive and personalized in real time

By placing powerful AI compute like the NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano directly in the classroom, we can create a “supercharged” learning space that listens, sees, and assists in real-time.

Core Flows

Jet: an intelligent classroom assistant that uses voice, vision, and student feedback to provide real-time support

Jet supports four core flows across the teacher and student views.

Starting a teacher session

An instructor creates a session that students can join with a code, then uploads their slide deck. Jet reads the slide content and generates comprehension questions from it, which the instructor can review and save to their question bank for use later in the lecture.
