5 Zenbo robots are coming to Feng Chia University

推到：

Date of Issue: September 20, 2017

Frank Hsieh, an extraordinary alumnus of Feng Chia University and Corporate Vice President and General Manager of the Motherboard and Desktop System Business Units of AsusTek Computer Inc., donated 5 Zenbo robots to Feng Chia University. The donation ceremony was held on September 20th and Zenbo was just the master of ceremonies. It is expected that Zenbo, humanistic and interactive, inspires more industry-academic cooperation in artificial intelligence.

Zenbo, the first robot launched by Asus, is able to move independently, understand and respond to language voice commands, interact with people, and connect products to the Internet of Things. It can provide various information in our daily life and remind users of schedules and important dates. In terms of caring for the elderly, if some accidents happen to elderly people, Zenbo will send the notice to family members by functioning as a remote-controlled camera monitor. Zenbo will be located in the IoT laboratories of the Department of Aerospace and Systems Engineering for students to use via registration.

Dr. Bing-Jean Lee, President of Feng Chia University, pointed out that the university has the responsibility of cultivating new talents for the transformation of industries. In order to reach the goal, Feng Chia University has been dedicated to adopting new ideas such CDIO, other innovative teaching models, and now AI and IoH, bringing the real world to the classrooms.

President Hsieh responded by stating that the gap between industries and academia has been an obstacle for industries which plan to look for suitable employees. He was happy that Feng Chia has been devoted to narrowing that gap through education. In his point of view, it is difficult for Taiwanese industries to compete with foreign ones on cost or production volume. However, talented people are always our biggest asset and we have the best opportunity in the AI era.

President Hsieh hopes that the donation of 5 Zenbo set a start point for the closer collaboration with Feng Chia University in the future. As an outstanding alumnus and also a board member of Cultural-Educational Foundation of Feng Chia University Alumni, Hsieh also encouraged young students to make the best use of all resources and realize their creative projects so as to devote themselves to the development of Taiwan.
