HENRIETTA, N.Y. — Students showed off their innovation, creativity and passion projects at the 19th annual Imagine RIT.
There was a social interactive AI robot created by a mechanical engineering student from RIT Dubai. In total, there were more than 450 exhibits with 2,800 students participating.
Former RIT President Bill Destler was there and downplayed his role in establishing the event. He said he is proud of it and gave the credit to faculty and students.
“I love it. I love it, you know, what’s interesting is this is a lousy day. It’s cold out, it’s raining, and yet you still see that we have thousands of people here. Gives you some idea the impact of the event on our community and all the little kids here, hopefully a lot of them will go to school at RIT in the future,” Destler said…
