Video. Watch: AI-powered robot teaches German students

Updated:

A secondary school in northern Germany became the first to trial a humanoid robot teacher on Tuesday. The robot, named Captcha, was developed by Hong Kong start-up Hidoba Research and introduced to students in Lower Saxony to discuss artificial intelligence.

Unlike standard teaching aids, Captcha uses advanced AI to interact dynamically with the class, answering questions and responding to discussions in real-time. Students actively engaged with the robot, exploring the potential and challenges of AI.

This marks the first use of Captcha in a classroom setting, showcasing a new frontier for technology in education since Hidoba Research’s founding in 2020.
