Syrian robot doubles as IT tutor
Meet Fathi - the IT tutor
The robot helps Syrian students develop their tech skills
Location: Damascus
(SOUNDBITE) (Arabic) CO-CREATOR OF FATHI THE ROBOT, YOUSSEF AL-QALAM, SAYING:
"The primary product was just a toy. I made it, played with it, and learned new things while using it. When I published my work on social media to get people's opinions, they all told me that this robot could be a product. Through my work at IT institutes I realized that it can solve many problems in Arduino courses which we have problems with in Syria, so this converted Fathi from just a toy to a product."
