CCTV-9 Documentary | AI Empowered Education


On the night of August 21, 2020, focusing on an intelligent robot for education—Smart Learning Partner Robot, which was developed by Associate Professor Yu Lu’s research team, applications and explorations from Advanced Innovation Center for Future Education based on artificial intelligence, big data, and related technologies in future learning scenarios were reported by Education for the Future—the first panoramic documentary about education innovation from CCTV-9 Documentary.

This documentary reported that Prof. Lu led his team to conduct in-depth research and exploration in the design, development, adjustment and other dimensions of the intelligent robot for education "Smart Learning Partner". Prof. Lu believes that with the continuous iteration of artificial intelligence technology, the efficacy of self-adaptation of educational applications in future learning scenarios will be greatly improved, and mobility and convenience for students will also make a more profound breakthrough.

At the same time, with the collection of data in the whole learning process, students' data of physical health also attracted great attention. Beijing Yucai School at Tongzhou is one of the partners of the AICFE. The smart bracelet worn by students in this school during physical education classes can collect their body temperature and heartbeat in real time, and make analysis of their physical state.
