Intelligent Voice+Massive Resources 360 Children's Robot Experience

IT 168 Evaluation When Google AlphaGo defeated Li Shishi, people began to wonder how artificial intelligence developed. When countless players were playing Pokemon Go to catch pet elves all over the street, people discovered that the seemingly unreachable AR technology could actually be played between people's fingers. In terms of children's education, 360 children's robots with these two cutting-edge technologies have also come to us.

As a parenting robot, this 360 children's robot named "Buddy" provides powerful internal performance under the plain and mellow appearance. In addition to basic functions such as video calling and playing children's songs, Buddy has also realized two-way voice communication with children through artificial intelligence technology, which can provide rich early education resources. Buddy's performance is very good, whether the children communicate with Buddy themselves or the parents let the children learn all kinds of basic knowledge in leisure and entertainment.

Appearance: lovely shape, environmentally friendly materials, but the fuselage is partial.

▲360 children's robot

Buddy adopted a rounded corner design. The upper part is an 8-inch 1280*800 resolution 16: 10 IPS display screen, which supports up to 5 touch points. On the back of the screen is the speaker area. It has a speaker-level sound cavity and bass diaphragm design, supports high-fidelity 3D surround sound effects, and is better when listening to children's songs and stories. There is a 1080P HD camera at the top of the screen, which can be used for taking photos, video recording and video calling, and it will also be used when using the AR function.

The lower part of the fuselage is a circular base, which can support manual 360 rotation, and the screen can also support 35 manual adjustment, so as to obtain a better viewing angle. The whole fuselage is made of environmentally-friendly ABS material, and the white base complements the black screen, which looks like Buddy's head and body. The 360logo at the bottom of the screen looks like Buddy's front teeth after lighting up the screen, adding a little cuteness to Buddy.

The fly in the ointment is that, due to the existence of the 8-inch screen and the stable base, the size and weight of Batty 32 1* 165*236(mm) are somewhat biased for children aged 3-5.

Voice system: Full-time communication is powerful.

Say an ancient poem casually, and the buddy can take the next sentence and give the full text of the ancient poem.

Counting is not a problem.

When you want to hear a story, say "I want to hear a story"

Common sense questions such as the weather are also answered.

English buddies who ask any Chinese word can also answer it quickly.

Say "I want to listen to music" and Buddy will automatically play children's songs.

Say "I want to play games" and Buddy will automatically open the built-in third-party children's game resources.

Buddy has a powerful artificial intelligence voice system, which can collect and reflect children's voices through the omnidirectional microphone in the center of the front of the base. A "hello buddy" can wake up the robot and start a conversation. Through the built-in voice system and artificial intelligence technology, Buddy can communicate with children in real time. He can not only play children's songs, stories and jokes according to voice instructions, but also answer date and weather questions, and can also take photos and make voice calls. You can also answer children's questions, including ancient poems, encyclopedias, idioms and English words. As long as children ask questions, Buddy can respond, but under the current system, Buddy's resource reserve is not perfect enough, and some uncommon ancient poems and sentences will be unrecognizable.

In addition to "Hello Buddy", Buddy can recognize the added family members and greet them according to their identities through the camera and the built-in face recognition technology, but the success rate of face recognition is not so satisfactory compared with voice wake-up.

Lots of entertainment resources.

▲ Star Park is a place where 360 children's OS specially aggregates third-party early education resources.

After double-clicking the voice dialogue interface, you can enter the 360 children's OS system interface, which is an operating system specially built by 360 company for children. In this operating system, you can choose Buddy's built-in children's songs to play, or you can manually make video calls and videos. There are also many well-known children's education manufacturers to create high-quality content, from learning Chinese characters, learning mathematics, learning English to the National Studies Museum, reading picture books, and safety knowledge education, covering almost all aspects of early childhood education.

AR mirror set: AR interaction, learning new experiences

▲ Children need to spell the words on the screen with letter cards on the AR pad.

Among many resources, the most attractive one is the exclusive AR learning function of 360 children's robots provided by Wanqu Space. The 360 children's robot is currently equipped with two AR applications to learn English and learn to draw. Learning English is to let children combine the corresponding words and letters on the AR pad according to the pictures. Compared with the previous English learning application, it can not only make children learn English happily, but also exercise their practical ability.

▲ When learning to draw, the template material for drawing will be given on the screen.

Learning to draw is to use a camera to provide various template materials for children to draw, which saves the trouble of buying a special graffiti book.

K story: let storytelling no longer have distance restrictions.

▲ The "K Story" in the 360 Robot APP is for parents to read stories.

In addition to a series of functions designed for children, 360 also designed the "K Story" function for parents. Through this function, parents only need to select the corresponding story in the "K Story" page of the 360 robot APP to record, and then push it to the robot after the recording is completed, so that children can hear the story read aloud by their parents on the corresponding page of the 360 children's OS. Compared with other online stories, parents' voices are undoubtedly more desirable for their children to hear.

6700mAh battery: unplugged for 4.5 hours.

In addition to the external power supply, considering the mobile demand, the 360 robot also has a built-in 6700mAh battery. After a small series of tests, after 30 minutes of baby bus games, 30 minutes of Wukong literacy, 30 minutes of rabbits learning Chinese studies, 30 minutes of animated stories, 30 minutes of video recording, 60 minutes of audio stories, 30 minutes of picture book animation and 30 minutes of English learning games, Buddy issued ".

When the battery is turned on but not used, it takes 2.5 hours from sending a charging reminder to fully charging. For a 6700mAh battery, this charging speed is not slow.

Body details: excellent workmanship

▲ The back of the screen of the 360 children's robot is a whole speaker hole, and the speaker area has a memory card slot and a reset function key.

▲ Reset the function keys and memory card slots of the 360 children's robot.

▲ There is a power button and microphone at the bottom of the screen.

▲ 1080P HD camera is located at the top of the screen.

▲ The screen of 360 children's robot supports 35 manual adjustment.

▲ The base of the 360 children's robot supports manual 360-degree rotation, and there is a USB interface on the base for connecting the power supply.

▲ Product information is printed on the bottom of the 360 children's robot.

▲ The very important AR mirror in the 360 children's kit allows the camera to read the contents on the AR pad through refraction.

Summary:

Recently, the market for children's robots has become more and more popular. In this market, the price of 899 yuan for 360 children's robots is not high. Compared with other children's robots focusing on voice intelligence, the advantage of 360 children's robots lies in the combination of intelligent voice system and powerful early education resources. Through the 8-inch blue eye protection screen, Buddy can not only accompany the children when their parents are away, communicate with them and answer their questions, but also let them learn in a series of casual games with the help of their parents.

However, 360 children's robots also have some shortcomings. For example, the success rate of face recognition needs to be improved. In speech recognition, if the speaker speaks too fast, it is easy to fail. Although there is an omni-directional microphone to pick it up, it has a negative effect that it is easy to collect the voice of non-speakers in noisy environment and carry out unnecessary speech recognition. If it can be improved, Buddy will be more handy in the process of communicating with children.
