Digital education platform
High-quality education resources at your fingertips
We have worked with education partners in China to aggregate high-quality basic,
language, and vocational education materials targeting all age groups.
We have also connected with parents to create a comprehensive
learning service platform, improving the user experience throughout all smart
learning services.
HUAWEI EduCenter has now launched more than 14,000 free
courses.
Transforming learning tools
Giving parents greater control over their children's learning
Giving parents greater control over their children's learning
The HUAWEI MatePad's EduCenter offers parental control functions to help parents
supervise their children's learning. Parents can arrange their children's study
schedule by setting study times, usage limits, and rest reminders. Parents can
manage the apps displayed on the EduCenter desktop so that children won't be
distracted by non-study apps during the studying process. They can also lock
AppGallery to prevent children from downloading unnecessary apps.
In advanced settings, parents can set a parental control password to prevent
children from modifying parental control settings or from exiting EduCenter
during studying, effectively turning their HUAWEI MatePad into a dedicated educational
device. The HUAWEI MatePad for education comes equipped with innovative
functions such as Multi-Window, App Multiplier, and Multi-Screen Collaboration.
These features take full advantage of the HUAWEI MatePad's large screen to improve
studying efficiency and create an innovative smart experience.
DigiTruck: Providing learning resources for remote areas
Huawei's DigiTruck is a shipping container that has been converted into a mobile
digital classroom. The 12-meter classroom is equipped with smart devices like
laptops, LED screens, VR glasses, smartphones, and routers. The entire truck is
solar-powered, so classes can be held in remote areas with poor power grid
access. It usually stays in one place for a month, providing free learning
resources and online classes, supporting rural teacher training, helping young
people find jobs, and providing students with the opportunity to visit world
heritage sites online.
In 2019, Huawei signed a memorandum of cooperation with UNESCO East Africa,
aimed at improving digital skills and AI capabilities for the benefit of
Africans through online education. Both parties will cooperate on the
development and deployment of Huawei DigiTruck, regional forums and events,
digital skills research, and so on, helping improve the AI and digital
technology capabilities of East African countries and meet the UN's Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs) sooner.

TrackAI project
Early diagnosis and treatment for visual impairment in children
According to data from the World Health Organization, 19 million children in the
world suffer from visual impairment, of which 70%–80% of cases are preventable
or treatable. Most vision disorders occur before the age of five, but only one
third of these children receive timely treatment.
Huawei cooperated with the Spanish medical research institute
IIS Aragon and the startup DIVE Medical in 2019 to jointly launch TrackAI, which
uses Huawei smart apps and AI technology to provide automatic, quick, and
accurate vision testing for children aged as young as six months.
TrackAI is currently conducting further AI algorithm training
in China, Spain, Vietnam, Mexico, Russia, and other countries in order to
continuously optimize its machine learning model to obtain more accurate
results.
Pressure monitoring
Excessive stress can cause physical and mental discomfort and affect long-term
health. Huawei wearables use TruRelaxTM to provide 24/7 heart rate monitoring to
help users monitor their physical and mental well being. When combined with
breathing exercises, this can help relieve stress.
Vision protection
More than 60% of China's Internet users suffer vision problems due to blue light
or radiation. Blue light causes dry eyes and fatigue, and can even damage the
retina and cause blindness in severe cases. The Eye Comfort Mode was designed to
reduce blue light radiation. In this mode, display colors are adjusted to be
warmer and gentler, relieving eye fatigue and protecting vision.
Sleep tracking
Huawei wearables equipped with TruSleepTM 2.0 can monitor sleep quality
throughout the night. Through heart rate and breathing monitoring and big data
analysis, six categories of common sleep problems can be identified and over 200
sleep improvement suggestions and personalized sleep services can be offered to
help users sleep soundly every night.
Body fat analysis
HUAWEI Smart Scale includes the HUAWEI TruFitTM body composition analysis
algorithm, jointly developed with the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of
the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It generates comprehensive body composition
reports telling you where your body fat is stored and offers guidance through
comparison with data from the broader population.

abnormal gaits in children, providing alerts and rehabilitation recommendations,
and tracking the progress of recovery. The use of Huawei wearables allows
podiatric issues in children to be detected as early as possible and increases
the likelihood of successful intervention.
