Japanese researchers have introduced similar gimmicks (see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4z3cs4Ocug&feature=playe...). In my opinion, the technology today is no match for a real human teacher in terms of educational outcomes and cost.


Hmm, sounds like it will enable parents to spy on their kids at school.
