B
Teachers find it difficult for students to collect homework before class, and sometimes they may even get mad. To solve this problem, a 13-year-old middle school student invented a smart robot, and he got the first prize in the Children's Invention Awards. His parents are so proud of him.
This smart robot can collect homework in a short time without making any mistakes. It uses Radio Frequency Identification (RFID; 射频识别) technology—a reader and a special tag(标签) that can share information without touching each other. This way, it can help find and recognise(辨别出) the owner of the homework. Each student's notebook has a special RFID tag with the name and the subject. Students only need to place their notebooks on the robot, and the machine “sees” the notebook, “reads” its tag and takes it out of the name list. Teachers can check who hasn't handed in homework by connecting their phones with the robot through Wi-Fi.
Many teachers speak highly of the smart robot after using it. They think the boy will create more useful AI tools to make life easier. His parents will continue to support him. Inspired(激励) by the words, the boy dreams of becoming a scientist when he grows up. “I have tried making model airplanes and other scientific and creative projects. Inventing has brought me joy and happiness,” he said.
