Nowadays, Artificial Intelligence is commonplace and has become part of our daily lives, though the presence of robots in classrooms is not yet a routinely sight. “So far, many of us have had encounters with humanoid robots, and beyond the initial wonder the experience didn’t leave much of a lasting memory. This probably because in the end it came down to greetings and some embryonic conversation. Instead, we took a reverse approach: we considered an exciting environment such as that of a classroom, and asked our potential audiences, teachers and pupils, what they wished a robot did in that context, then we created it.” says Salvatore Rionero, CEO of Protom, the dynamic KTI (Knowledge/Technology Intensive) company from the Naples area in Italy, leading this unique educational project in collaboration with Naples’ Federico II University.
