Merlin’s Magical AI Escape
HANDS ON VIRTUAL LAB | DEC 7-18
Put your skills to the test by solving challenges that emulate real AWS use-cases in our interactive Jam Lounge challenge. In our challenge you’ll use Amazon Transcribe to navigate a virtual maze with ‘magical’ voice commands to move a wizard – Merlin – through a perilous dungeon to freedom.
Participants in this challenge will create an AWS Identity Access Management (IAM) policy, create and configure an AWS IAM user with programmatic access to a websocket, and create a custom vocabulary for Amazon Transcribe. You’ll put this all into action by directing Merlin through the Dungeon Escape game with your verbal commands!
Journey with Merlin
*AWSome re:Invent swag and IoT kits are limited and only available to ship to addresses in the United States.
