High level "tutoring" in Go stimulates children's interest, and Shangtang releases AI chess robot robots | AI | Go
Today, Shangtang Technology released an AI chess robot called "Yuan Radish SenseRobot" with both hands and eyes, bringing cutting-edge AI technology into home settings and allowing children to intimately interact with the national essence of Go. Nie Weiping, Vice Chairman of the Chinese Go Association and "Go Saint", said, "The development of modern technology has brought unprecedented challenges and opportunities to Go. I am delighted to see technology companies fully investing in the manufacturing of Go robot products. I believe that the emergence of" Yuan Radish "can effectively promote the inheritance and development of Go culture, allowing everyone to truly feel the charm of Go."
Xu Li, Chairman and CEO of Shangtang Technology, introduced that the "Yuan Radish" chess robot integrates AI and robotic arm technology, which can achieve Go practice and game on a real chessboard. It not only has a large number of AI exercises built-in, but also has human-machine game and online multiplayer game functions, providing children with a visual, auditory, and tactile interactive experience, which can stimulate their interest in Go without damaging their vision like computers and mobile phones.
The Alpha Dog, who defeated the world Go champion in 2016, is connected to a supercomputer that consumes nearly 50000 times more energy than the human brain, while the Yuan Radish is a physical robot that can be placed on a desk. "From super large data centers to compact home robots, it is driven by tremendous advancements in computing power, extremely high hand eye collaboration accuracy, and engineering innovation achievements, which are expected to bring AI into thousands of households," said Xu Li.

Go is one of the most complex board games in the world. To become proficient, not only does it require comprehensive learning, but also extensive practical training. To this end, Shangtang Technology has collaborated with experts from the Chess Academy to develop an AI exercise refinement function for "Yuan Radish". It has released over 2000 selected exercises at 7 levels, covering students from beginners to amateurs at all stages. When children are faced with a problem and have no way to start, robots will actively intervene and explain the knowledge points of the problem through voice and identification.
With the help of AI engines, this robot covers 19 levels of human-machine games from amateur to professional levels, and also sets up 9 and 13 levels of chess power for beginners to pass levels. It also has peak battles that surpass human professional skills. No matter what level of student they are at, they can find a game level that is comparable to their own, and they can also review and summarize their experience through the exclusive app.
It also has the "Planet Alliance" function, which can access well-known online Go platforms such as "99 Go", "Xinbo", and "Yike", allowing children to compete online with millions of real players and accompany them to explore the chess world.

Previously, Shangtang Technology released the Chinese Chess version of the AI chess robot, which is presented in the image of a small astronaut, teaching and playing chess face-to-face with children. Last October, a Chinese chess "human-machine battle" was held in Shanghai, against Chinese chess master Xie Jing, the 48th National Chess Individual Championship champion, and the "Yuan Radish" AI chess robot. As a result, Xie Jing pushed the balance to admit defeat in a backward situation, demonstrating the powerful strength of AI surpassing top human chess players.
