All Aacheners, big and small, young and old, can not only get a behind-the-scenes look at AI research at RWTH during the LabCrawl, but can also get involved actively, because that's what Family Day is all about: Experiencing AI. Families can sign up to visit individual labs at RWTH that offer demos, including, for example, drones or VR. Additionally, everybody is invited to the public and interactive exhibitions at OecherLab and Fireplace (Aachen city center).
