Weyo Launches New Interactive AR App for Accessible Pre-K Education

Published

on

Melbourne-based creative development company, Weyo, known for launching apps for Sesame Street, The Wiggles & Oddbods, has unveiled its latest innovation, Weyo: Kids Reading & Learning. This cutting-edge app harnesses Weyo’s proprietary Augmented Reality (AR) technology to bridge the gap in early childhood education.

MELBOURNE, Australia, June 28, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Prepare for a game-changing learning experience with Weyo: Kids Reading & Learning. This groundbreaking app seamlessly brings the child onto the screen with leading early learning educators and instructors, immersing young children in an interactive world where they can explore, learn, and thrive.

With support from global brands like Apple, Amazon, Mattel, ABC Music, Emma Memma, Diane Alber, and the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute (MCRI), Weyo merges state-of-the-art AR technology with expertly crafted educational content. Featured in Fast Company’s ‘World Changing Ideas 2023’ and GSV’s top EdTech companies of 2023, Weyo’s innovative approach to learning has earned broad recognition and support within the tech and education industry.

“We’re thrilled to launch the Weyo: Kids Reading & Learning app. It brings the effectiveness of traditional Pre-K teaching to the digital realm, offering a unique mixed reality learning experience,” enthuses Baz Palmer, CEO of Weyo.

By mirroring tried and tested early learning strategies, Weyo transforms kids’ mobile devices into interactive tools, empowering children to become active creators and lifelong learners. It’s an app that uniquely redefines the way kids interact with technology.

Designed with a deep understanding of children’s developmental needs, Weyo: Kids Reading & Learning offers engaging activities that foster critical skills and promote social and emotional development. From exciting games to delightful songs and mindfulness practices, each experience is carefully crafted to ensure children learn while having a blast.

Privacy is at the heart of the Weyo experience. All activities within the Weyo: Kids Reading & Learning app remain confined within the app, maintaining a secure learning environment. “We’re as committed to your child’s online safety as you are. Weyo is not just a learning tool—it’s a secure digital playground,” Palmer assures.

Despite the urgent need, quality Pre-K education remains inaccessible to many, with less than 40% of US children enrolled in state-funded programs. Here, Weyo emerges as a beacon of change, delivering superior Pre-K education to all children, regardless of location or socio-economic status.

Palmer concludes, “As AI and AR technologies advance, so do the opportunities for Weyo. We’re ready to ride the wave of digital education, ensuring that every child, everywhere, has the best learning tools at their fingertips.” An Android version is also in the works, reinforcing Weyo’s commitment to make education accessible to all.

By

NANNING, China, April 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — This is a report from china-asean-media.com.

The 14-day “2026 Vietnam-China Cross-Border Tourism AI Empowerment Cooperation and Exchange Program” successfully concluded on April 19 in Nanning, Guangxi. Co-hosted by the Department of Culture and Tourism of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region (China) and the Departments of Culture, Sports, and Tourism of Quang Ninh, Lang Son, Cao Bang, and Tuyen Quang provinces (Vietnam), the event brought together nearly 30 tourism officials and industry representatives from the four Vietnamese localities.

With the theme “Vietnam-China AI + Cross-Border Tourism Exchange and Cooperation,” the program combined expert lectures, case studies on AI applications, and field visits. Participants gained insights into ASEAN-China tourism policies, AI-driven cross-border cooperation models, and smart tourism technologies. Hands-on training enabled them to use AI tools for decision-making, product development, and destination branding.

The delegation conducted field studies in Nanning, Liuzhou, Guilin, and Hechi. They visited the China-ASEAN AI Innovation and Cooperation Center, the “Easy Visit Guangxi” platform, the No. Wang Cultural Industrial Park, and the BAO JUN base, experiencing Guangxi’s smart, industrial, landscape, and wellness tourism offerings.

A meaningful part of the program was retracing President Ho Chi Minh’s revolutionary footsteps in Guangxi, including visits to the former site of Yucai School in Nanning, the former residence of Ho Chi Minh in Liuzhou, and the “September 2” School site in Guilin. On April 17, all participants attended the launch ceremony of the 2026 Vietnam-China Border People’s Carnival in Nanning, witnessing the deep friendship and mutual support between the border communities of both nations.

At the closing ceremony on April 18, a cross-border tourism product design competition was held. The team from Quang Ninh won the Best Design Award, while teams from Lang Son, Cao Bang, and Tuyen Quang received Excellence Awards. Mr. Lưu Bá Mạc, Vice Director of Lang Son’s Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, praised the program for fostering practical cooperation and opening new directions for the “comrades and brothers” friendship between local authorities.

The program not only provided Vietnamese tourism professionals with valuable knowledge in AI and smart tourism but also laid a solid foundation for future cooperation in building shared tourism information platforms, developing smart products, and enhancing data connectivity. Both sides reaffirmed their commitment to advancing high-quality development of the cultural and tourism industry through AI, contributing to the strategic Vietnam-China community with a shared future.

TCL Solar: Powering Pakistan with advanced solar module innovation

Published

on

By

LAHORE, Pakistan, April 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — TCL Solar made a strong impact at this year’s Solar Pakistan exhibition (17th-19th April, at Expo Centre Lahore) by unveiling a range of advanced solar solutions designed to meet the growing demand for low-carbon energy in South Asia and the Middle East.

The new T5 Pro solar module represents a major leap in N-type TOPCon technology, delivering breakthroughs in both conversion efficiency and power output. It is designed to be the new flagship product in the industry, offering enhanced performance and long-term value.

Key Highlights of the T5 Pro:

A unique product design: The T5 Pro specificity remains in its design architecture, with an overlapping tri-cut cell construction. This innovative structure significantly boosts the module’s performance, ensuring superior output and higher energy yield.

Product Reliability: The T5 Pro’s low-current technology ensures precise temperature control, with hotspot temperatures up to 45°C lower than conventional modules. This reduces the risk of fire hazards and improves overall module longevity. The module has also passed rigorous reliability tests, making it ideal for diverse applications, including commercial rooftops and ground-mounted power stations.

Customer Value: By enhancing energy generation and reducing project lifecycle costs, the T5 Pro provides a high return on investment for both residential and commercial solar applications.

TCL Solar’s Lightweight Module: Optimized for C&I Rooftops

TCL Solar’s Lightweight Module addresses the specific challenges faced by commercial and industrial (C&I) rooftops, particularly in areas with limited load-bearing capacity.

Improved Power Output: Weighing only 5.4 kg/m², these modules generate 3-6% more power compared to traditional TOPCon modules, offering a highly efficient solution for weight-sensitive environments.

Superior Heat Dissipation: The ultra-thin glass design enhances heat dissipation, lowers operating temperatures and reduces overall weight and making the modules ideal for aging rooftops or structures with limited structural integrity.

Building on the momentum at Solar Pakistan 2026, TCL SOLAR and TAIMOOR TRADING CO. have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), marking a key step in advancing solar energy solutions. This partnership aims to expand clean power access and drive sustainable development across Pakistan and beyond, with a shared focus on innovation and a low-carbon future.

Focusing on innovation, efficiency, and reduced environmental impact, TCL Solar continues to lead the way in solar technology in Pakistan and across the region, providing solutions that meet today’s energy needs while enabling measurable emissions reductions across the energy value chain.

As Pakistan embraces renewable energy, TCL Solar’s cutting-edge technologies will help drive the growth of low-carbon energy in South Asia and the Middle East.
