In Japan, In japan, the computerization of education is progressing towards Society 5.0. The Department of Engineering provides a place to learn the fusion of informatics, which makes full use of ICT technologies such as IoT and AI, and mechanical engineering, which enables manufacturing in real space, with the aim of helping engineers acquire AI skills. Additionally, the need for AI education from middle and high school education as indicated in Society 5.0 is increasing. Since AI education involves abstract concepts, it is thought that it is possible to promote and establish understanding by not only classroom lectures but also practical training using AI. Until now, we have developed KAIT-QV, an automated driving education material that uses AI on a 1/10 model vehicle, as an integrated teaching material that allows you to practically learn the fusion of mechanical engineering and artificial intelligence. KAIT-QV is ideal as a teaching material for learning about vehicle mechanisms, but the driving course and incidental equipment are large, so it was difficult to try it out easily. Therefore, we developed KAIT Qt, an AI educational material that allows you to experience teaching, learning, and AI driving in a consistent manner, assuming a limited indoor space. Furthermore, we held hands-on courses and competitions using KAIT Qt to contribute to improving understanding of AI and motivation to learn. In this paper describes examples and effects.
