Specification

Description:[014] The following sections of this article will provide various embodiments of the current invention with references to the accompanying drawings, whereby the reference numbers utilised in the picture correspond to like elements throughout the description. However, this invention is not limited to the embodiment described here and may be embodied in several other ways. Instead, the embodiment is included to ensure that this disclosure is extensive and complete and that individuals of ordinary skill in the art are properly informed of the extent of the invention. Numerical values and ranges are given for many parts of the implementations discussed in the following thorough discussion. These numbers and ranges are merely to be used as examples and are not meant to restrict the claims' applicability. A variety of materials are also recognised as fitting for certain aspects of the implementations. These materials should only be used as examples and are not meant to restrict the application of the innovation.
[015] Referring now to the drawings, these are illustrated in FIG. 1, the blockchain-based robotic system comprises the following components:
The system includes a humanoid or stationary robotic unit equipped with multiple sensors, cameras, a microphone, and a speaker. The robotic device acts as a tutor, delivering educational content and interacting with students. This device is powered by a high-performance processor and offers wireless connectivity options, such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, to ensure seamless communication and functionality. The array of sensors, including infrared, ultrasonic, and touch sensors, provide comprehensive environmental awareness, enabling the robotic device to interact intelligently with students. Actuators embedded within the device facilitate natural gestures, which enhance the interactive learning experience by mimicking human-like behaviors.
[016] In accordance with another embodiment of the present invention, central to the system is the multilingual expert module, which utilizes advanced natural language processing (NLP) and machine translation algorithms. By leveraging transformer-based architectures such as BERT or GPT, the module interprets and responds to user inputs in various languages, including regional dialects. This ensures that the educational content and interactions are not only accurate but also contextually relevant, making the learning experience more inclusive and effective for students from diverse linguistic backgrounds.
[017] In accordance with another embodiment of the present invention, the system incorporates a robust blockchain network designed for secure data management. This consortium blockchain operates with permissioned access and employs consensus mechanisms such as Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance (PBFT) or Proof of Authority (PoA) to maintain data integrity and prevent unauthorized modifications. The blockchain securely stores student data, learning histories, and assessment results in a decentralized ledger, ensuring that only verified nodes can access or update the records. This provides a high level of security and privacy, essential for managing sensitive educational data.
[018] In accordance with another embodiment of the present invention, smart contracts are used to automate assessments, reward systems, and credential issuance. They ensure that assessment results are accurate, verifiable, and stored securely. These smart contracts are programmed to trigger specific actions, such as issuing digital badges or certificates upon successful completion of a module, thereby reducing manual intervention and ensuring a seamless learning experience.
[019] In accordance with another embodiment of the present invention, the learning engine is responsible for delivering personalized content, adapting based on a student's progress and learning pace. It uses machine learning algorithms to recommend the next steps in a student's educational journey. The AI-powered learning engine continuously analyzes the student's performance data to identify strengths and areas that need improvement, providing targeted exercises and resources to enhance the learning process.
[020] The robotic device interacts with the student using speech, gestures, and visual aids. The multilingual expert module ensures that interactions can occur in the student's preferred language, breaking language barriers in education. The robotic device can also recognize non-verbal cues, such as facial expressions and body language, to gauge the student's emotional state and adjust its responses to provide a supportive learning environment. All student data, including their progress and assessment scores, are recorded in a secure blockchain ledger. This ensures that the data is immutable and accessible only to authorized parties, safeguarding privacy. The use of blockchain technology also allows for the creation of a digital identity for each student, which can be used to track progress across different educational platforms securely.
[021] The AI-powered learning engine continuously monitors student progress and adjusts the learning path accordingly. The system also uses smart contracts to administer quizzes and assessments, automatically evaluating and recording results in the blockchain. The adaptive learning system provides real-time feedback to students, helping them understand their mistakes and guiding them toward the correct solutions.
[022] The blockchain network allows secure credential issuance and verification, enabling students to share their academic achievements with institutions or employers confidently. The credentials issued are stored as tamper-proof records on the blockchain, allowing for easy verification by third parties without compromising the student's privacy as shown in figure 2.
[023] The use of blockchain technology ensures that educational data is stored securely and is tamper-proof. The decentralized nature of blockchain minimizes the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access, providing a trustworthy environment for students and educators. The multilingual expert allows students from diverse linguistic backgrounds to access quality education in their native language. The system's ability to detect regional dialects further enhances the learning experience, making it more inclusive and effective for non-native speakers. The AI-powered learning engine provides an adaptive educational experience, tailoring content to each student's individual needs and progress. By continuously analyzing student performance, the system ensures that learners receive the right level of challenge and support at every stage of their educational journey. The use of smart contracts automates the assessment process and provides verifiable credentials, reducing administrative burdens and increasing transparency. The automated issuance of digital badges and certificates provides immediate recognition of student achievements, motivating learners to continue progressing.
