Curiosity Robotics
Curiosity Robotics is revolutionizing early childhood education by harnessing the power of AI to teach English to toddlers - the critical age for language acquisition. In collaboration with Tel Aviv University and the Curiosity Lab, our team of experts have created an emotionally intuitive, AI-driven robot that engages and captivates young learners while fostering social-emotional development. Drawing from a deep understanding of - and connection to - the Helen Doron pedagogy, our innovative technology enables children to explore and learn English with the loving guidance of our first robotic companion, Aico. Join us as we empower the next generation of global citizens with a strong foundation in language and emotional intelligence, backed by a team dedicated to shaping the future of education.
