IFI is joining the no-code movement by developing a computational environment that allows students to solve complex math, science, and engineering problems without having to write a single line of code. Through this work, IFI is committed to broadening student participation in computational science.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the way people work. IFI is spearheading research on this important human-technology frontier based on Aladdin — a unique experimental platform that we are developing to reimagine design with explainable AI (XAI).
The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed an Achilles heel of today's powerful online learning technology. While a variety of educational activities can migrate online, many science experiments cannot be easily moved. Millions of students, especially those in underserved communities, are missing out on an indispensable part of science education — laboratory experiences. IFI is responding to this crisis with an innovative solution.
IFI is developing the Infrared Street View, a thermal equivalent of Google's Street View, to visualize the energy landscapes of our streets and buildings. Through this citizen science project, IFI aims to crowdsource a thermographic information system to provide a large-scale scientific survey of the efficiency of civilization's last line of defense against climate change — the thermal envelopes of our dwellings.
