The need for such modifications is toovercome two types of challenges: 1) student’s lack of accessibility to academic resources andcampus practices, and 2) retention rates in engineering education (e.g., not the focus of this paper).According to research studies, the effectiveness of conventional practices depends on two majoraspects: 1) classroom environment, and 2) students being able to access campus resources such asstudy spaces, books, outdoor recreation programs, advising programs, computer labs, and internetservices [11], [12], [13], [19].From these conventional practices, though Problem-based learning (PBL) [17], Project-basedlearning [27], [28

This paper presents a senior design project that implemented object detection on Raspberry Pi byrunning deep learning models, where the edge devices include Raspberry Pi 3 and 4, Model B+ (Plus)Complete Starter Kit1 and a web camera. It consists of three steps: 1) hardware configuration: it is toconfigure the Raspberry Pi and mount the web-camera on the Raspberry Pi; 2) software installation:it is to install necessary software such as TensorFlow and OpenCV; 3) deploying mobile deep learningmodels on Raspberry Pi to run object detection.

IntroductionPython as a high-level programming language, it has become the most popular programming languagesince 2018 according to the PYPL Index. Python has been widely used in data science, machinelearning, Web development, and other software development due to its high productivity. However,Python has not been widely accepted by the scientific computing community, especially for large scalescientific simulation and modeling. The main reason is that Python does not provide high performanceto allow researchers to fully utilize the sophisticated resources in supercomputers. In
