AI-enabled classrooms in China
A High School in Hangzhou, China has installed cameras which are designed to mark attendance automatically and track activities that students are engaging in, including reading, writing or listening.
In addition, students’ real-time emotions such as fear, happiness, sadness, surprise, disgust, anger and neutral are also tracked.
EduSense: Practical Classroom Sensing at Scale
EduSense is a comprehensive, open source, sensing system that produces a plethora of theoretically-motivated visual and audio features correlated with effective instruction, which can feed professional development tools in much the same way as a Fitbit sensor reports step count to an end user app
The system consists of 3 main components as follows.
- Body Segmentation, Keypoints and Interframe tracking
- Facial Landmarks
- Speech Detection

Research Problem
- “What is the optimum way of tracking student attendance in a much efficient way and how does the lecturer analyze reasons for student absenteeism?” (Q1).
- “Does a correlation exist between lecturing style and student behavior in the classroom and how can Computer Vision and Artificial Intelligence be incorporated in determining this relationship?” (Q2).
- “How to summarize the lecture content to enable students to pay more attention to the lecture and reduce time spent for taking notes?” (Q3).
- “How to evaluate lecture performance by tracking their behavior during a lecture and analyzing the quality of the lecture content which is delivered by the lecturer?” (Q4).

Methodology
As mentioned in the System Diagram, this system will mainly consist of a mobile and web application. When the students and the lecturer enter the classroom, their behavior will be monitored by two separate video-cameras and a microphone. The collected data will transmit to the server through local machine and stores the gathered data in the MongoDB cloud database service.
While the video camera tracks both facial expression and body movements, the microphone will record the lecture for further analysis. The student attendance will register by capturing facial identity using deep learning and computer vision mechanisms. Students will be monitored by capturing their facial and body movements by Computer Vision and Deep Learning algorithms.
The lecturer audio and video details will be gathered and stored for analyzing as such lecture summarizing and monitoring lecturer performance using machine learning, deep learning, and computer vision technologies. While the students have access to the mobile application, the lecturers and the higher management have the authority to manage the web-application. Frontend components will communicate with the backend using Django REST API.
