Abilix has the world's most extensive educational robot product line. It has the family user-oriented Krypton series brick robots, Oculus series mobile robots, modular series Boya, Sinus series flying robots, and Everest series humanoid robots.

Catering to family users, Abilix has set shoppes at department stores, boutiques, airports, toyshops and chain stores for household appliances, selling educational robot products; meanwhile, a brand new experiential retail format is formed for adolescents to get in touch with AI and other future products at Abilix stores.

cater to students in universities, secondary and primary schools. Using brick robots, modular robots, mobile robots, flying robots, and humanoid robots as platforms, and equipped with a brand-new course content, teaching model and evaluation system, robotics laboratories are a great solution to adolescent creative ability training based on technical education.Practice-Innovative Scientific Exploration

Brand History

  • Dr. Yun created the world’ first educational robotics brand-Abilix.

  • Abilix released the first educational robot-AS-M to the world.

    Dr. Yun Weimin was invited by Bill Clinton, the President of the United States, to attend a “My Chinese Dream”-themed luncheon.

  • Abilix founded the earliest robotics competition in China- Abilix Cup.

  • Abilix robots, representing China, won the first robotics competition championship in the American Trinity College.

  • Abilix released the world’s first robot flow chart programming software.

  • Abilix fire-fighting and football robot competition system has been listed into the “National primary and secondary school computer production activities”. This is the only domestic robot contest whose winners are eligible for direct admission to colleges or for gaining extra college entrance examination points.

  • Abilix independently developed innovation course (in 9 language versions) was batch exported to 31 countries globally. It is the only hi-tech educational product batched exported from China.

  • Abilix was titled “China’s most innovative companies”. As a company accumulated 161 patents, Abilix owns the most all-around technology in the educational robotics field.

  • Yu Zhengsheng, the municipal party secretary of Shanghai, was visiting Abilix Robots.

  • Abilix became the exclusive competition equipment supplier for the World Educational Robot Contest (WER).

  • Abilix cooperated with the Center for Research and Development of Educational Equipment at the Ministry of Education. Abilix carried out research works and standards development for students’ innovative and practical ability based on education robot platforms.

    Deputy Prime Minister Liu Yandong investigated Abilix.

Theoretical Foundations

《Successful intelligence》 《Multiple intelligence》 《Constructivism》

R.J.Sternberg

Successful intelligence
Educational robot projects can systematically train a child’s creative, analytic, and practical abilities. They also ultimately provide the child with the most important skills needed for success in life.

Abilix applications
Guided by the contest projects, students receive training in analytics, creativity and practicality, and learn how to effectively use these three abilities to enhance their chance of success by working persistently to complete each task.

H.Gardner

Multiple intelligence
During the implementation process of educational robot projects, each student should be respected for their distinctive multiple intelligence. Areas where students excel and where they face challenges should be identified and reinforced.

Abilix applications
Teach students in accordance with their aptitude, help each student find their own talent and most suitable development path, as well as identify and reinforce each student’s strengths and address weaknesses.

V.Graserfeld

Constructivism
Educational robots are used not only to cultivate students’ technological literacy and scientific knowledge, but also to create opportunities through robot projects and competitions, and to enable children to happily and freely construct knowledge that is unforgettable. Such knowledge can be creatively acquired and applied, as well as help children to use the self-constructed knowledge to solve real-life problems.

Abilix applications
During the process, as students complete a series of robot projects, ranging from elementary to more advanced levels, they actively build a range of knowledge on mechanics, electronics, software, robot systems, project requirement analyses, plan designs, and plan implementations, and use this self-constructed knowledge to solve specific problems.
