Introduction
The 8th China International Import Expo has successfully concluded, but its significance as a global hub for technological innovation and an industry barometer continues to deepen. Compared to previous years, the display of artificial intelligence at this year’s expo has moved beyond mere conceptual demonstrations to focus more on the deep implementation of real application scenarios, highlighting the systematic empowerment of technology across various industries.
In this wave, the ecological evolution in the education sector is particularly noteworthy. Artificial intelligence is gradually upgrading from an auxiliary tool to a core force driving structural changes in the education system.
So, from an educational perspective, what new insights and revelations has the Import Expo brought us? How can AI technology systematically reshape the future of education across multiple dimensions, from teaching environments and interaction modes to personalized learning?
Integration of Industry and Education: Building a New Mechanism for Collaborative Talent Development
At the expo, the fighting arena set up by Yushu Technology was crowded with spectators. Left hook, right hook, back spinning kick—two humanoid robots wearing protective gear moved smoothly, reacted quickly, and demonstrated significantly improved stability, presenting a performance close to that of real humans.
Sun Baoyan, the marketing manager of Yushu Technology, pointed out in an interview that humanoid robots are a very complex system, and in addition to high-end research talents, large-scale future applications will also require a substantial number of operational and maintenance talents. To this end, Yushu Technology is actively collaborating with applied universities and vocational colleges to jointly develop a curriculum system to meet the comprehensive and multi-level talent needs of the industry.
This strategy has recently seen more concrete implementation measures. On October 21, Yushu Technology officially launched the Yushu Quadruped Robot Training Platform.
According to reports, this solution is a talent cultivation and certification platform for education that covers the entire chain of “embodied intelligent robot technology—operation—application development,” centered around the UnitreeGo2 ecosystem, integrating the “simulation—hands-on—competition—training project” pathway, enhancing students’ engineering practical abilities under the premise of cost and safety control.
AI Education for Younger Ages: Cultivating Innovative Thinking from an Early Age
At the New Thinking Technology booth, technology projects created by middle and primary school students using electronic building blocks, such as elevators, smart cars, and robotic arms, attracted a lot of attention. Since 2022, the company has launched a chip education program that brings cutting-edge chip knowledge into the classroom, allowing young people to experience the design process of chips and intelligent systems hands-on, thereby stimulating their interest in cutting-edge technology through practical engagement.
Unlike traditional programming courses, students do not need to learn code during this process but focus on developing the ability to observe the world, articulate needs, and collaborate with artificial intelligence. This is precisely the key capability required for future innovative talents.
AI technology is also reconstructing classroom interaction methods. The Shanghai Pavilion showcased smart wearable devices like the XREAL One Pro AR smart glasses, as well as various AI toys for children, such as the Fuzozo emotional-adjusting doll and the MOMO fragrance doll, bringing new possibilities to early childhood education. Technological products like SenseTime’s Disney co-branded Meta Carrot chess-playing robot and AI Koryt’s Rubik’s Cube-solving robot accompany children from learning to play.
Personalized Learning: AI Reshaping the Educational Ecosystem
This year’s Import Expo clearly conveyed a message: artificial intelligence is evolving from a teaching aid to a core component of the educational ecosystem.
With advancements in big data and machine learning technologies, educational AI will no longer be limited to superficial interactions but will be able to deeply understand students’ learning states and cognitive characteristics, providing truly personalized learning solutions.
In the field of “AI + Physical Education,” Rongmeng Technology showcased AI sports teaching screens, AI exercise screens, and AI sports event cameras, among other terminal devices. These devices reconstruct the entire chain of “teaching, learning, practicing, testing, evaluating, and competing,” making physical education more scientific and interactions more engaging.
This solution not only completes traditional physical fitness assessments but also emphasizes tracking each student’s “progress curve.” By generating a digital profile unique to each student, the system not only records exercise data but also analyzes individual performance and provides personalized suggestions, assisting teachers in achieving scientific process evaluations and motivating students to continuously surpass themselves.
The displays at the Import Expo indicate that the key to the successful implementation of AI in education lies in the deep integration of “understanding AI technology” with “understanding industry pain points.” From the innovative mechanisms of industry-education integration to the low-age practices of AI education, and to truly personalized learning, these transformations collectively outline the future direction of education.
This is the profound insight that the Import Expo has provided us, and it is also the core mission of the committee: to actively promote the deep integration of virtual simulation technology with education and teaching, let us work together to empower educational reform through technological innovation, and jointly build a smarter, more efficient, and personalized new educational ecosystem, contributing to the cultivation of innovative talents for the future.

About Us
The Virtual Simulation Education and Teaching Professional Committee of the China Simulation Society (hereinafter referred to as the “Education Committee”) was established in 2014, approved at the 7th Executive Council of the China Simulation Society, and personally awarded by Chairman Zhao Qinpeng (former Vice Minister of Education).
As an important branch of the China Simulation Society, the Education Committee is composed of authoritative experts and scholars from the education and technology sectors. The first chairman was Han Husheng, former director of the Comprehensive Department of the Ministry of Education’s Basic Education Department and director of the Ministry of Education’s Research and Development Center for Educational Equipment. The current chairman is Liu Shihai, former deputy director of the Ministry of Education’s Research and Development Center for Educational Equipment. The Education Committee is committed to gathering various forces, building a platform for communication and cooperation, deeply researching the theory and practice of virtual simulation education, and promoting the professional and international development of virtual simulation education.
The Education Committee has been actively holding academic research and exchanges: regularly organizing high-level academic seminars, forums, and other activities, and has held the “National Metaverse Innovation Education Application Competition” and the “Simulation Education and Metaverse Innovation Development Forum” for several consecutive years.
Looking to the future, the Education Committee will continue to uphold the concept of “virtual simulation technology leading educational innovation and development,” actively promoting the integration and development of simulation technology with educational innovation, advancing industry ecosystem construction, industry-education integration, and industry-university-research cooperation; strengthening forward-looking research and exploration of virtual simulation technology, promoting industry standard construction, and facilitating academic exchanges and application promotion in the industry.
