_With EliteMind, WhalesBot creates a connected AI learning journey from digital 
learning to real-world practice._

SHANGHAI, Nov. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — In September 2026, [WhalesBot](https://www.whalesbot.ai/?utm_source=pr)
introduced [EliteMind](https://www.whalesbot.ai/products/elitemind?utm_source=pr),
a modular Physical AI educational robot. Set to be showcased at the [WhalesBot 2027 Global Product Launch Event](https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7525499632374972416)
on December 4, 2026, EliteMind reflects the growing potential of Physical AI in 
hands-on education.

WhalesBot EliteMind: A modular Physical AI educational robot bringing AI learning
into the physical world.

Physical AI educational robots will reshape how students learn AI. WhalesBot defines
them as learning tools designed to bring AI learning into the physical world. By
sensing their surroundings, interpreting information through AI models, and responding
with physical actions, these robots make intelligent systems tangible and interactive.
Through hands-on projects, students can program, test, and refine robot behaviors,
gaining a deeper understanding of how AI works while building AI literacy.

In recent years, AI has become an increasingly important part of hands-on education.
In 2023, UBTECH’s UGOT combined AI vision and programming with modular robot building,
while Unitree’s Go2 EDU supported advanced education and research in AI-driven motion
control, environmental perception, and autonomous navigation. As AI becomes more
deeply embedded in everyday life, greater emphasis is being placed on developing
AI literacy from an early age. Introduced in 2025, VEX AIM combines AI vision with
robot programming, allowing students to explore how intelligent systems perceive
their surroundings and make decisions. In 2026, FF Nova Mini paired a programmable
humanoid robot with introductory Physical AI courses.

For WhalesBot, what sets EliteMind apart is [the connected AI learning journey](https://www.whalesbot.ai/resources/ai-education?utm_source=pr)
built around it. Through OceanLevel, WhalesBot’s AI & STEM learning platform, students
explore how intelligent systems work and develop their own AI models. W-Hong LLM
provides the intelligence behind EliteMind, powering its perception, reasoning, 
interaction, and AI-driven creation. Students then bring their digital learning 
into the physical world with EliteMind, testing their ideas, observing real-world
responses, and refining their creations through hands-on experimentation. Beyond
the classroom, [ENJOY AI](https://www.whalesbot.ai/enjoy-ai?utm_source=pr) competitions
offer further opportunities to apply their knowledge, explore new ideas, and take
on new challenges.

"We believe every young person should have the chance to understand AI, explore 
their own ideas, and learn to work alongside AI to build a better world," said Xufeng
Fei, CEO of WhalesBot. Working with educators and partners worldwide, WhalesBot 
hopes to bring hands-on Physical AI learning to more young people, giving them the
opportunity to turn their ideas into real-world creations.
