Today's parents are busy with their work every day, and they have very little time to accompany their children, not to mention what an excellent enlightenment education they can give their children. My daughter is three years old. I have to go to work every day. My daughter begged me hard that my father would stop working and play with me at home. Every time I face my daughter's entreaties, my heart is broken. I wish I could always be with my child and give her the best education. Especially as children grow up day by day, their awareness of the world and their thirst for knowledge become stronger and stronger. Now it's like a robot that has opened 100000 Why modes. It keeps asking questions, and the parents who always ask questions from time to time are speechless.

When the child found that his parents always held the phone, he was curious about the phone, so I installed some early education apps in the phone for her to play. I didn't think so much at the beginning, but later found that children increasingly like to play with the phone, which is bad for the child's development and vision health, and it is very difficult to correct. I have always wondered whether there are any mobile phones for children to play with, which can teach children knowledge without hurting their eyes. Just so, Xiaoxi is such a product.

Last year, I experienced Xiaoxi robot, and the child liked this "robot cat" at once. Lovely shape, rich content, and vision protection. However, Xiaoxi robots also have their own shortcomings, such as being too heavy to carry, and being unable to play vertical apps on horizontal screens.

Not long ago, Xiaoxi Technology launched the latest early education product based on AR technology - Xiaoxi Mirror. This product is not only lighter and easier to carry, but also has a cute shape of giraffe. With AR technology, it can shoot and see, which is the first new progress in helping children understand the world. I was also lucky to get from Love to play computer games After getting the latest Xiaoxi Mirror, let's see whether this product is good or not.

The overall shape of Xiaoxi Mirror is a very cute giraffe. The long neck of the giraffe is the handle, and the big mouth is a screen. And the lovely antlers and ears. In order to let the child know about giraffes, I also took the child to the Beijing Zoo to see what a real giraffe is like, so that the child can have a comprehensive understanding of giraffes.

As you can see, the mouth of the giraffe is not full of screens, but the square area in the middle is the screen, but the rounded shape is very cute. The film is already on the screen when it leaves the factory, and can be used as long as it is removed.

There are also small eyes on the top of the mirror. In actual use, it is found that the antlers and ears of giraffes can also play the role of gum, and children like to put them into their mouths to chew and play. In the black screen frame, there is also a front camera hidden. Although the pixels are ordinary, they are enough for video chat. On the right side of the camera, there is also a dark red sensor. Theoretically, it should be a distance sensor, similar to the Xiaoxi robot. However, in actual use, it was found that the distance sensor did not work. I don't know why.

At the top of the front handle, there is a button printed with a small logo. This button has the function of the return and home keys. It also has a breathing light for message and charging indication.

This small mirror adopts a charging design, just like a mobile phone, it has a charging jack in the rear of the microphone, and you can use the attached charger to charge the small mirror. Although the battery is small, it does not need too long for children to use.

Let's take a look at the back of Xiaoxi Mirror. The back of the whole mirror is vertically symmetrical. The most obvious one is the circular camera in the middle, followed by the long speaker. There is also a power button on the top, because the color is very close, it is not very obvious. The things on the back are very simple, but they are very practical.

The camera on the back is the main equipment of the small west mirror, because the original design of the small west mirror is mainly to take "shooting" as the main play method, and use the camera to shoot various objects for recognition, or use the built-in AR software for card recognition. However, in actual use, it is found that the pixel of this camera is not high, even inferior to many thousand yuan machines, It can only be said that the shooting is barely clear, which has a great impact on object recognition. It is hoped that Xiaoxi Technology can improve the pixel of the camera in the next generation of products to make the shooting clearer.

Through the study of the instructions, we first learned about the relevant operations of Xiaoxi Mirror, and then turned on the machine to enter the system. It will be found that Xiaoxijing is like a customized Android phone. The XIUI in it is a simplified version of the Android system. People who have used Android phones must be easy to use it.

XIUI has some apps built in, mainly focusing on AR recognition, to help children understand things. You can also install some early education apps, such as Bewa, Xiaopanlong, and Xiaobei Rabbit. Let Xiaoxijing become the child's own mobile phone.

Xiaoxijing has three main functions. The first is video chat. Through Xiaoxijing app, parents can directly chat with Xiaoxijing via video to achieve remote companionship; The second is AR recognition, which uses AR technology, which is as popular as VR technology, to interact with real things using cameras, so as to achieve the effect of knowledge learning; The third is to use it as a child's mobile phone. You can install some early education apps, so that children can no longer grab their parents' mobile phones, and effectively protect their eyesight.

I won't say much about the first video chat function, because it is almost the same as Xiaoxi Robot. You can go to see the detailed evaluation of Xiaoxi Robot I wrote. In short, like the video on WeChat, the effect is good and the delay is very short. The only defect may be that the camera pixel of Xiaoxijing is too low to see clearly.

The third child's mobile phone function is also the child's favorite function. I installed the child's favorite Xiaopanlong and Xiaobei Rabbit in Xiaoxi Mirror, and the child will play with Xiaoxi Mirror for a while every day. In order to protect children's eyesight, we strictly negotiate the time of playing "Giraffe" every time, which can not only let children learn knowledge through play, but also protect their eyesight health.

Here, I will focus on introducing the AR function of this small mirror. At the bottom of Xiaoxi Mirror's packaging, there are three stacks of cards, which are used for cognitive learning with Xiaoxi Mirror's AR function.

Here, Xiao Xi has two kinds of AR learning. One is to directly shoot real objects for recognition teaching, and the other is to conduct virtual recognition through these cards. Many people may not know what AR is, but I will simply say that AR is "augmented reality". The simplest understanding is a technology that combines virtual things with real things through cameras and apps, which is widely used in the field of teaching and games. For example, Baokemeng, a very popular spirit, is one of the AR games.

Let's take a look at the first function of shooting real objects directly for teaching. Xiaoxijing has several AR recognition apps built in, such as object recognition apps and flower recognition apps. As long as you open the corresponding app, start the camera, and then aim at the object you want to identify, the app will automatically recognize what the object is, and will broadcast a prompt throughout the speech.

After testing, the recognition accuracy is about 60%. In fact, I think it is mainly because the camera's pixels are not high enough, and of course it is also related to the clutter of the environment. In addition, this recognition function must also be connected to the Internet. Without the network, it will not be recognized. This is not very convenient. It can only be used at home. Xiaoxi Mirror cannot have a built-in sim card. I hope it can be improved.

Another AR function is to use teaching cards for recognition. I once evaluated the Magic Dinosaur Hall of Mengcheng CC, but this function is the same as the Magic Dinosaur Hall.

Xiaoxijing is also equipped with a magic camera of Mengcheng CC, and many teaching cards are attached, mainly for animal recognition. On the front of each card is a picture of an animal, and on the back is an introduction to the name of the picture and eating habits. Although not as rich as the cards in the Magic Dinosaur Hall, it can also achieve AR effect.

The magic camera of Mengcheng CC can be installed in any mobile phone. You can also use AR to identify these cards if you install one in your mobile phone. However, every app of Mengcheng CC needs an authorization code, which is in the manual. This is unique, just like the registration code of software. Only with it can you use the app

Use the magic camera to shoot the cards presented, and the animals on the cards will become three-dimensional on paper, lifelike and realistic. But compared with the Magic Dinosaur Museum, it is still a bit crude. The dinosaurs in the Magic Dinosaur Museum are in a scene, with water, trees and stones. The animals in this card can only stand alone on the card. This three-dimensional visual perception is very helpful for children's cognition of animals. Without going to the zoo, children can watch every animal from all directions and angles, and understand its habits.

After the child's experience, she has completely fallen in love with the giraffe. She often pats the giraffe from side to side and shouts excitedly, "Dad, the giraffe is wrong again, this is not XX, it is XX, Then he reached out his little finger and bargained with his father, saying, "I'll watch for another two minutes..."

Although this "giraffe" still has many flaws in my opinion, the child has already liked it very much, which is enough for parents. I just hope to improve it and add the distance sensing reminding design like Xiaoxi Robot to protect children's eyesight. At the same time, we hope that more and more companies like Xiaoxi Technology develop products for children, so that our children will become more intelligent.
