Design a Helper Agent
Plan an AI agent that senses, thinks, and acts to help with a chore.
Your mission
Design your own helper agent on paper and map out its Sense → Think → Act loop for a real everyday job.
What you'll need
- Paper and colouring pens
- A list of chores or problems at home
- Stickers or cut-outs (optional)
Your step-by-step plan
Pick a job
Choose one job your agent will do — feed a pet, water plants, tidy toys.
Draw your agent
Design what it looks like and give it a name.
Map the loop
Write what it Senses, what it Thinks, and what it Acts — like the Agent Helper lab.
Plan for problems
Write one thing that could go wrong and how your agent would handle it.
Make it yours
- Give your agent a second job and a second loop.
- Act out your agent's loop for your family.
How you'll know you succeeded
- Your agent has a clear job.
- Its Sense–Think–Act loop is written out.
- You planned for one problem.
