Robot development in Africa taking shape [Hi-Tech]

High school students in Tanzania are learning to build robots with the help of a Korean organisation called E3-Empower Africa.

Gracious Ephraim, a student of Ilboru High School in the northern Tanzanian city of Arusha has built a solar-powered robot that can walk, turn its head, speak and perform other functions triggered by a remote control.

Rwanda is also expecting its first set of smart classrooms by the end of this year to empower students with digital tools, practices, and technologies.
