Scientists from KamSU named after Vitus Bering have created a new robot "Dima" to work with children with autism. It can download and adapt educational programs for each child. The uniqueness of the development is that it assesses the effectiveness of classes through the collection of statistics.
The device has a tool for creating educational content, which allows specialists in the field of pedagogy and psychology to develop and modify training tests without involving programmers. This significantly increases the range of applications of the device in various organizations.
One of the key achievements in creating the robot was the ability to automatically collect and analyze statistical data. The system records all the results of the sessions, including the types of tasks performed, the number of correct and incorrect answers, as well as the dynamics of improvements. This allows you to objectively assess the effectiveness of working with each child.
We consider a monthly cycle as diagnostic. During this time, it becomes clear whether the robot helps a particular child. If there is objective progress, we continue working; if not, we look for other methods. Our goal is real help, not the promotion of technology for the sake of technology.
Earlier www1.ru reported that about a third of Russians believe that robots with artificial intelligence capable of doing household chores would relieve them of many everyday tasks.
