Abstract :
Recently, with the advantages of peer tutoring, robot for education usage has been the new trend for new generation leaning technology. Robot is not only a toy, but also your learning partner. We considered integrating speech, position information and 3G cell phone to realize a highly-interactive learning platform.Teachers can design different scene with many stages for English or mathematic. Students send out his command to the robot with motions or speech the robot travels within the scene as an adventure. And the students assist the robot to solve any quizzes it meets If the adventure processes successfully, the robot will interact happily with student otherwise, it will encourage the student to keep trying. The parents or the teacher can observe all these activities with a 3G cell phone to give advises of learning at any time.
