What different sparks can AI+education create?

"I can jump farther than you", "Let's compete in squatting", "I must break your record", "Let's do Baduanjin together after class", "Your movements are not standard "... In Hangzhou Jiangnan Experimental School, such conversations occur one after another among students.

The equipment they are surrounded by is Uniview Technology’s AI body measurement screen and AI body training screen. These devices cover standing long jump, high leg raises, pull-ups and various ball sports. As long as students raise their hands in front of the screen, they can automatically and intelligently identify and start exercising, and then the device will score their performance and summarize it. into the ranking list.

As a global provider of AIoT products, solutions and full-stack capabilities, Uniview Technology has accumulated a lot of experience in AI applications. Seeing the current prospects for the development of AI technology and the development of students' physical and mental health, Uniview Technology Start to dig deeper into the value behind the video, find the convergence point between AI and the comprehensive development of students' learning, physical and mental health, and explore the intersection between AI and students' comprehensive development. This is also the key to the current AI business layout of Uniview Technology, Culture and Education.

At Hangzhou Jiangnan Experimental School, Professor Xiong Zhang, leader of the Ministry of Education’s Compulsory Education Information Technology Curriculum Standards Expert Group, saw these devices and said with emotion that children’s physical and mental health and physical fitness will be great in the future. Challenges, but traditional education in the past and many current AI products still focus on student learning, which is why primary and secondary school students are required to ensure one hour of outdoor activity time every day. He emphasized that AI-empowered education is not only related to building a strong educational country, but also to cultivating healthy successors. In the future, what is more important for children's development is their overall physical and mental development. Uniview Technology's series of AI tools have found a good direction.

This type of fresh AI tools has entered primary and secondary schools at all levels across the country, filling sports fields and teaching buildings. Nowadays, AI has penetrated into many places such as homes and schools that can support students' learning and exercise needs. With the blessing of AI, education has been upgraded in many aspects such as fun, intelligence, and personalization.

From focusing on AI’s effects on academic performance and teaching to physical and mental health, Uniview Technology’s product matrix now presents a different perspective on the combination of AI and education - simultaneous application of culture, education and sports, Xinlifang, a multi-modal physical and mental health data service platform built by Uniview Technology, relies on the "screening-policing-education" three-dimensional protection system to protect students' physical and mental health in a three-dimensional, all-round and full-process manner.

Professor Xiong Zhang said that the construction of China's education power and the coordinated development of China's new productive forces. On the one hand, an education power must achieve high-quality education development and education innovation; on the other hand, technology companies must use AI support Educational development and the construction of China into an educational power should not only involve changes in classrooms, teaching materials, and teaching methods. He also called for more domestic technology companies to pay attention to and devote themselves to education and use AI to empower education.Develop more products suitable for schools.

01. It has become an industry consensus that culture, education and sports should be equipped with AI wings

AI is accelerating its implementation in thousands of industries and has become a key trend in the second half of 2024, and education is no exception.

Large education models that can achieve personalized and precise learning and guidance are implemented on learning machines, widely used intelligent teaching tools such as smart blackboards, and equipment such as XR/VR to assist immersive learning... Many innovative solutions powered by AI have flooded students’ learning scenarios on campus and at home.

From a macro perspective, the urgency of combining AI with education has been reflected in the drive of relevant policies, the drive of education’s own reforms, talent training goals, and changes in social development needs.

Policies directly related to AI education have been released one after another. On November 18, the Ministry of Education issued the "Notice on Strengthening Artificial Intelligence Education in Primary and Secondary Schools", proposing six major tasks and measures for AI education, involving the curriculum system. , teaching resources, teaching environment, etc.; at the beginning of this month, the General Office of the Ministry of Education issued a notice to explore ways to implement AI education in primary and secondary schools and strengthen AI education in primary and secondary schools... In addition, Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Shenzhen and other places have also made clear Policies to support the implementation of AI in education scenarios.

Policy is the fundamental guarantee for the widespread application and in-depth development of technology, and the maturity of the technology itself also provides it with more possibilities.

It has been more than two years since ChatGPT detonated the large model industry at the end of 2022. The basic model has demonstrated strong generation and understanding capabilities, coupled with the vertical model for segmented scenarios, it has been widely used in medical, education, finance and other competitions. After the road was launched, AI applications exploded.

On this basis, the application scenarios of AI in education are gradually diversified, from learning machines, learning tablets and other tool devices that improve students’ learning effects, to smart blackboards and teacher assistants for teachers in school scenarios. By extension, now there are physical education equipment that are more closely related to the campus environment and related to students' physical and mental health.

It can be seen that in educational scenarios, the space for AI application is echoing the key reforms in education for the comprehensive development of students.

At the same time, what is more closely related to education is the campus. From this perspective, under the trends of cultivating all-round talents, personalized education, and innovation in teaching models, the school’s traditional education equipment transformation needs Increasingly urgent. Teachers need to pay attention to the comprehensive physical and mental health development of students, but it is generally difficult to pay attention to students' conditions all the time. The mature AI technology represented by large models meets the needs of cultivating students' comprehensive literacy based on innovative equipment.

At a time when policies, technologies, and needs have reached consensus, Uniview Technology, which has already achieved AI application results in the education industry, is applying its technology to not only improve academic performance, but also gradually expand to pay attention to students' physical health. , mental health field, in order to achieve the simultaneous advancement of students' comprehensive development and academic development.

Uniview Technology in AI Culture and EducationThe business exploration in the field closely focuses on the core needs of students and teachers, and explores new models of physical, mental and mental health management beyond curriculum and academic studies. This is essential for Uniview Technology to rely on its own business layout and technological development to empower education and implement The educational policy of comprehensive development of students' moral, intellectual, physical, artistic and physical education is of great significance.

02. No sports, no education. Uniview uses AI to open up the entire chain

To allow students to develop in an all-round way is what Uniview Technology aims at in the education market.

So, where is the boundary between AI and education? We can first look at the dismantling of Uniview Technology’s layout in the AI ​​cultural, educational and sports track.

The first is the classroom reform that is of most concern at the moment. Previously, Uniview Technology has released smart classroom solutions, which use smart blackboard classroom interactivity and teaching efficiency, and also cover practical teaching, patrol supervision and vocational education, etc. Scenario application.

In addition to teaching, Uniview Technology has found the intersection between AI and the comprehensive development of students’ physical and mental health. With the support of Wutong large model, big data, Internet of Things and other technical systems, the multi-modal physical and mental health data service platform Xinlifang built by Uniview Technology supports students’ daily physical education, nature education, life education, astronomy education, etc. Full-chain learning and sports channels.

Many large and small screens in the playground of Hangzhou Jiangnan Experimental School, in the corridors of teaching buildings, and on campus have connected the five dimensions of teaching, practice, testing, competition, and evaluation in student sports scenes. , so that students’ sports are not limited to fixed venues.

Among them, the AI ​​​​exercise screen is more focused on students’ daily exercise needs. This type of equipment will be placed in the school's teaching buildings, squares and other places based on comprehensive considerations such as the school's needs, the size of the venue, and the number of students.

The AI ​​​​exercise screen has dozens of built-in exercises including ball sports, physical fitness projects, fitness projects, etc. There are also small games integrated into the fun exercises, such as touching the ball in sequence, and students follow the instructions on the screen. The numerical size of the ball appears. If you touch it in sequence, you will get corresponding points. Finally, these data will be comprehensively reflected in the ranking list.

The AI ​​​​exercise screen also has the traditional fitness exercise Baduanjin. The screen not only shows the teacher's "live" teaching movements, but also captures the students' movement trajectories through cameras and sensors, and combines the eight sections Jin's movements are broken down, and points can be earned when the movements are in place. After learning for a long time, the standard of movements will be significantly improved.

With daily exercises in place, physical examinations are no problem, but standing long jumps, pull-ups and other events also need to check whether the students' postures are standardized. This is not only the key to getting high scores in the tests. The key is that it can also effectively help students reduce the risk of injury and improve sports effects. This is also the role played by the AI ​​body measurement screen on the sports field.

The AI ​​physical measurement screen includes a general sports data dashboard and a full system for different projectsequipment.

Generally, you can see a large screen at the entrance of the sports ground, which is a sports data dashboard that summarizes various data of students during sports. The data displayed on the screen includes the number of people exercising today. , students can also confirm their exercise status today through intelligent recognition.

For a single project, the school will choose the number and projects of different equipment based on the existing sports equipment settings. In the pull-up event, the AI ​​body measurement screen can identify two sports equipment in one device. When students stand under the horizontal bar and raise their hands, they can automatically identify and start the test.

The key point is that after the test is over, the results of scoring its performance will automatically appear on the screen, as well as the automatically recorded video playback and test report of the exercise situation.

In the standing long jump event, the AI ​​physical measurement screen is very sensitive in determining various violations. For example, in the standing long jump, if the student's toes touch the line even slightly, the score will be invalid. This reduces the supervision work for the physical education teacher and greatly standardizes the movements of students when participating in sports events. It also dynamically analyzes the students' take-off and jumping processes. Movement trajectory, comprehensive score is given.

For events such as squats, high leg raises, and rope skipping that require no fixed equipment and venue requirements, the AI ​​physical measurement screen can identify the movements of five students at the same time. Even if the five students do not join at the same time, the AI ​​physical measurement screen Students who join later can also be quickly identified.

Finally, these data will be aggregated into the sports data dashboard, and students will be bound to their sports data through intelligent identification, so that schools, students, and parents can improve their physical health and sports projects. Have a general understanding.

Through this interesting ranking method, students’ interest in sports is also fully awakened. In front of the AI ​​physical measurement screen on campus, I can still hear conversations among students competing for invitations to compete.

While attaching importance to physical fitness, Uniview Technology also pays attention to students’ mental health. What they see and hear on campus daily is very important to the construction of students’ world view, outlook on life, and values. Therefore, Uniview Technology Technology combines natural education, life education, and astronomy education with the school’s entry screen, curriculum, etc.

For example, Uniview Technology has cooperated with the Beijing Observatory to introduce astronomy interest education courses to schools. At the same time, students can learn about the whole process of raptor rescue through slow live broadcast.

With the continuous development of educational concepts, school education has gradually expanded from the pure pursuit of educational and teaching effects to a comprehensive focus on students' physical and mental health. The integration of technology and campus is providing practical tools for the all-round development of students' moral, intellectual, physical, artistic, and physical education.

This is also the latest thinking of Uniview Technology based on the current technology layout, existing products and solution application scenarios, which truly allows the combination of AI and education to exert more practical value.

03. AI capabilities are accumulated and developed through the joint efforts of governments, schools, and technical supporters

Students’ learning outcomes are in line with their physical and mental health. This is also Uniview Technology’s new exploration to implement AI in the education industry and integrate it with students’ comprehensive development.

Driven by the penetration of AI technology into the education industry and the policy-driven trend of schools seeking reform of traditional equipment, Uniview Technology’s layout in the field of AI culture, education, and sports has become more effective. Professor Xiong Zhang said that Uniview Technology’s implementation plan further aims at personalized education for students’ physical health and provides them with personalized guidance. This exploration direction is in a leading position in the world.

From AI body measurement screens, AI body exercise screens to slow live broadcasts of raptor rescue, astronomy interest courses, etc., students’ daily teaching tasks are being integrated with physical and mental health development, establishing correct three outlooks, etc., throughout All aspects of school life to unlock greater value from AI.

There are also more direct data summary tools supported by AI. At the same time, it provides more systematic data for assisting teachers to carry out teaching work. On this basis, scientific decision-making can be realized and the students' teaching quality can be improved. Physical health and exercise methods can make more targeted plans. Professor Xiong Zhang believes that continuous observation of various indicators of students' physical fitness based on AI can not only provide teachers with accurate guidance for teaching, but also allow education to form a virtuous cycle and iteration, and continuously optimize it.

In this regard, policymakers, schools, and AI technology companies have formed a joint force.

In fact, Uniview Technology has a long history of deployment in the field of AI education.

In addition to the above-mentioned smart classroom solutions, AI physical exercise and other solutions, there are also smart campus security solutions, etc. Its smart campus digital twin platform can integrate campus overview, security situation, pedestrian and vehicle traffic and other multi-dimensional information to achieve “one picture” management of the global campus.

In the future, with the implementation of AI technology, the powerful understanding and generation capabilities of large models may have greater vitality in the field of education, extending from existing application scenarios.

04. Conclusion: Accelerate the search for new educational variables in the AI ​​era

The powerful capabilities demonstrated by AI make Since this year, the possibility of its application has gradually increased, and large models, AI applications, and AI tools in the field of education have emerged one after another. However, from the perspectives of schools, students, and society, there is still a lot of room for imagination for AI to empower education, such as exercise and safety mentioned above.

Therefore, players represented by Uniview Technology are actively exploring deep integration paths between technological innovation and the field of education, so that AI in the field of education can not only improve the quality of teaching and learning experience, but also pay attention to the comprehensive aspects of students Growth and mental health, provide support for cultivating innovative talents to adapt to the future society, and find new variables that combine technology and education in the AI ​​era. Such cases are also positive examples under the current concept of technology for good and AI inclusiveness.explore.
