[0002] In a classroom, students often face challenges like struggling to read the teacher’s handwriting from the back or missing out on important points during lessons. When comes to exams, students may feel distracted by peers, and it's hard for teachers to ensure fairness, especially when students are looking for ways to cheat. Time management also a big issue too, with students not knowing how much time is left for the exam. Also, students with weaker eyesight or special needs often find it hard to keep up with the rest of the class. Without real-time feedback, it's tough to know if a student truly understands the material. The classroom environment lacks personal attention, making quite difficult for both teachers and students to keep track of progress or focus on areas where students need help the most. This led to frustration for students and teachers alike, reducing the effectiveness of the learning process.

[0003] Traditionally, education relied heavily on manual teaching methods, such as blackboards, chalk, and paper-based activities. Teachers write on a blackboard, and students take notes manually. However, this often led to issues like poor visibility of handwriting, difficulty in reading from the back of the classroom, and the limited interaction between students and teachers, especially during larger lectures or exams. So, overhead projectors and later, personal computers, were used into classrooms to assist in delivering content more interactively. These equipment’s allowed teachers to display images and slides, making lessons more engaging. However, they had limitations in terms of interactivity, real-time feedback, and engagement with individual students. Overhead projectors were often bulky, and the clarity of the displayed images was sometimes poor, especially in larger classrooms.

[0020] As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” designate both the singular and the plural, unless expressly stated to designate the singular only.

[0021] The present invention relates to a multi-functional student furniture for personalized learning and exam monitoring that facilitate the enhancement of both learning and testing experiences for students and teachers by providing a customized learning setting, boosting communication between the student and educator, offering prompt feedback, and ensuring confidentiality during exams, thereby aiming to establish a more interactive and inclusive educational atmosphere.

[0022] Referring to Figure 1, a perspective view of a multi-functional student furniture for personalized learning and exam monitoring is illustrated, comprising a rectangular platform 101 having four perpendicularly installed telescopic rods 102 with caster wheel 103 at the ends, attached underneath the base, a writing capacitive screen 104 installed on the flat surface of the platform 101, an integrated digital writing tool 105 provided on the platform 101, an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 106 installed on front portion of the platform 101 via a rack and pinion assembly 107.

[0023] Figure 1 further illustrates an augmented reality (AR) holographic projector unit 108 installed on the platform 101, multiple sliding overlapping panels 109 fabricated with a layer of acoustic foam installed over perimeters of the platform 101, a dedicated microphone 110 installed on the platform 101, a speaker 111 is integrated into the platform 101, a dedicated storage chamber 112 installed with the platform 101, a display unit 113 installed on front portion of the platform 101, multiple USB ports 114 are integrated into the platform 101, a simulated keyboard 115 is installed on the flat surface of the platform 101.

[0024] The furniture disclosed herein comprising a rectangular platform 101 which is configured with four telescopic rods 102, each installed perpendicularly to the corners of the platform 101, with caster wheel 103 affixed at their distal ends. These caster wheel 103 are operable to facilitate the movement of the platform 101, enabling the platform 101 to be adapted to various seating arrangements or classroom configurations. The telescopic rods 102 allow for adjustment in height or positioning, while the caster wheel 103 provide the necessary mobility for the platform 101 to navigate across different surfaces.

[0025] The rods 102 are pneumatically actuated, wherein the pneumatic arrangement of the rods 102 comprises of a cylinder incorporated with an air piston and the air compressor, wherein the compressor controls discharging of compressed air into the cylinder via air valves which further leads to the extension/retraction of the piston. The piston is attached to the telescopic rods 102, wherein the extension/retraction of the piston corresponds to the extension/retraction of the rods 102. The actuated compressor allows extension of the rods 102 to position the wheel 103 at an appropriate position.

[0026] Synchronously, the caster wheel 103 functions by rotating around its axis, allowing for easy movement of the platform 101 across surfaces. When force is applied to the platform 101, the caster wheel 103 pivots, enabling the wheel 103 to roll in the desired direction. The wheel 103 is designed with a swivel arrangement that enables it to rotate freely in all directions, providing enhanced manoeuvrability. This pivoting motion reduces friction, allowing the platform 101 to glide smoothly across different floor types. The caster wheel 103 load-bearing capacity ensures that the platform 101 remains stable and supports the weight of the structure while being moved.

[0027] A user-interface, integrated within a computing unit, provides a comprehensive communication interface that facilitates interactions between the student and the concerned teacher(s). This interface enables the input and retrieval of various types of information, including academic content and personal data. The user-interface is configured to allow the student to create personalized profiles, which may include preferences, performance data, and access to tailored educational materials. Additionally, the interface ensures that students access relevant academic resources, such as course materials, assignments, and real-time feedback from the teacher, thereby supporting a more efficient and personalized learning experience.

[0028] A writing capacitive screen 104 is installed on the flat surface of the platform 101, providing an interactive interface for the student to write directly on the screen 104. The screen 104 is designed to respond to touch input, with the ability to detect variations in electrical conductivity caused by the student's writing tool 105. An integrated digital writing tool 105, which may include a stylus or pen-like device, is provided on the platform 101, enabling the student to make precise marks or annotations on the screen 104. The capacitive technique ensures smooth, responsive interaction, enhancing the student's ability to engage in digital writing and note-taking activities.

[0029] The writing tool 105 is equipped with an integrated sensing module, which comprises a pressure sensor and a motion sensor. The pressure sensor detects the force exerted by the student during writing by measuring the changes in pressure applied to the tool 105 when it comes into contact with the screen 104. This allows for the detection of varying writing intensities. The motion sensor tracks the movements and trajectory of the writing tool 105 as it is used on the screen 104, registering the tool 105 position, orientation, and motion. This combination of sensors enables accurate tracking of the writing process, facilitating a seamless writing experience with precise input recognition.

[0030] The pressure sensors disclosed herein includes a sensing element that is the core component that directly interacts with the pressure being measured. It typically consists of a diaphragm or a membrane that deforms under the applied pressure. When pressure is applied to the sensing element, it causes a diaphragm or membrane present within the sensor to flex or deform. The amount of deformation is proportional to the applied pressure. The deformation of the sensing element is converted into a measurable electrical signal which is processed by the microcontroller to determine the force exerted by the student to the tool 105 during writing.

[0031] The motion sensor integrated into the writing tool 105 tracks the movement and trajectory of the tool 105 as it is used on the screen 104. This sensor utilizes accelerometers and gyroscopes to detect changes in orientation, velocity, and position. As the student moves the tool 105, the sensor registers these movements, converting them into electrical signals, which are then transmitted to the platform 101. The microcontroller processes this data to track the tool 105 motion, allowing for precise detection of writing paths and enabling accurate reproduction of the student's input on the capacitive screen 104 in real-time.

[0032] The platform 101 incorporates an artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 106, mounted at the front via a rack and pinion assembly 107, enabling precise adjustment and positioning of the imaging unit 106. This imaging unit 106 is designed to capture visuals of the surrounding environment, specifically focusing on the teacher’s writing on a board within the classroom. The captured images are processed by an integrated Optical Character Recognition (OCR) module, which analyzes the visual data and compares it with what the student is writing on the screen 104. The OCR module allows for real-time analysis and synchronization, ensuring that discrepancies between the teacher's written content and the student's input are promptly detected.

[0033] The artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 106 captures high-resolution images of the surrounding environment through a camera. Using machine learning protocols, the captured visual data is processed to identify and interpret the content. The unit analyzes visual data and compares elements such as text on a board with what the student writes on the screen 104. With real-time feedback from the AI protocols, the imaging unit 106 adjusts its function to ensure accurate comparisons and detect discrepancies.

[0034] Simultaneously, the rack and pinion assembly 107 operate by converting rotational motion into linear motion. The pinion gear engages with the rack, which has teeth, causing the pinion's rotation to move the rack in a linear direction. As the pinion turns, it shifts the rack, enabling the imaging unit 106 to move precisely along a predetermined path. This assembly 107 ensures smooth and controlled motion for adjusting the position of the imaging unit 106.

[0035] The OCR module scans captured images and extracts any text using pattern recognition protocols. The images are processed to identify characters and words, converting the visual text into machine-readable data. The recognized text is then compared with reference content, such as the teacher's writing, to identify discrepancies. This allows for real-time analysis and feedback, enabling the detection of inconsistencies between the teacher's writing and the student's input, ensuring accurate synchronization of the information.

[0036] An augmented reality (AR) holographic projector unit 108 is integrated into the platform 101, configured to detect discrepancies or errors in a student's work. When a discrepancy is identified, the AR projector unit 108 highlights the error in real-time by projecting a holographic display onto the student's workspace. This display provides visual cues or corrections to assist the student in identifying and correcting the error, ensuring that the learning process is more interactive and accurate. The unit is designed to enhance the student's understanding and improve their performance during examinations or assignments by providing immediate feedback.

[0037] The augmented reality (AR) holographic projector unit 108 functions by utilizing a combination of cameras, sensors, and modules to detect discrepancies in the student’s work. When an error is identified, the microcontroller triggers the projector to generate a 3D holographic image or visual cue. The projector emits light to create the hologram, which is displayed above the student’s workspace. The projected image provides immediate, visual feedback, such as highlighting the error or suggesting corrective actions, enabling the student to make necessary adjustments efficiently. This interaction supports a more dynamic and precise learning experience.

[0038] Multiple sliding overlapping panels 109, fabricated with a layer of acoustic foam, are installed over the perimeters of the platform 101. These panels 109 are designed to be movable and are adjusted to cover the surrounding areas of the platform 101. The primary function of these sliding panels 109 is to prevent visual access to the student’s screen 104 and written materials by other students during an examination. This ensures a fair and secure examination environment by protecting the confidentiality of each student's work, thereby minimizing the risk of cheating or unauthorized viewing of examination content. The use of acoustic foam also contributes to sound insulation, further enhancing the integrity of the examination process.

[0039] The panels 109 are integrated with a drawer arrangement that consists of multiple plates that are overlapped to each other with a sliding unit, wherein upon actuation of the multiple plates and sliding unit by the microcontroller, the motor in the sliding unit starts rotating a wheel 103 coupled via a shaft in clockwise/anticlockwise direction providing a movement to the slider in the drawer arrangement to extend the panels 109 to cover surrounding areas of platform 101 for preventing visual access to student’s screen 104 and written materials by other students during examination, ensuring a fair and secure examination environment.

[0040] A dedicated microphone 110 is installed on the platform 101 to capture the voice of both the teacher and the students during a lecture or classroom session. The microphone 110 is strategically positioned to ensure optimal sound capture, providing clear audio for effective communication. The captured sound is then processed and transmitted for real-time use, enabling the microcontroller to record or transmit the audio for further use, such as live streaming or recording the session. This ensures that both teacher and students are audible, enhancing the overall learning experience while maintaining effective communication throughout the session.

[0041] The microphone 110 operates by converting sound waves into electrical signals. The microphone 110 captures audio by detecting vibrations in the air caused by sound, converting these vibrations into an electrical signal using a diaphragm within the microphone 110. The signal is then amplified and processed by the microcontroller for generating high sensitivity and frequency response, ensuring clear and accurate capture of voices from both the teacher and students, thus facilitating effective audio communication during classroom activities.

[0042] Synchronously, the microcontroller actuates a speaker 111 that is integrated into the platform 101 to amplify and transmit the teacher's captured voice through the platform 101 audio unit. This ensures that the voice of the teacher is clearly audible to all students, including those seated at the back of the classroom. The speaker 111 works in conjunction with the microphone 110 to ensure that the captured voice is properly amplified and evenly distributed throughout the classroom space.

[0043] The speaker 111 operates by converting the amplified electrical signals from the audio unit into sound waves. Upon receiving the electrical signals, the speaker 111 diaphragm vibrates, creating pressure waves in the air that correspond to the captured sound. These pressure waves are perceived by the human ear as sound. The speaker 111 is designed with a specific frequency response to accurately reproduce the teacher's voice, ensuring clarity and volume. The integrated speaker 111 ensures that the sound is distributed uniformly across the classroom, enabling students, regardless of seating position, to hear the teacher's voice clearly and effectively.

[0044] A dedicated storage chamber 112 is installed with the platform 101, designed to allow students to store relevant books and study materials necessary for lectures. The imaging unit 106 continuously monitors and identifies each book or study material placed within the chamber 112, maintaining an updated storage log. Based on the pre-fed class schedule or the specific lecture to be conducted, the microcontroller processes the stored information and triggers the projector unit 108 to dynamically display the specific book or study material required for the current lecture. This automated process ensures that students have immediate access to the correct resources without manual effort.

[0045] In the event that the imaging unit 106 detects that the teacher’s handwriting on the board is not clearly understandable by the student, the microcontroller processes the captured content. The microcontroller then analyzes the handwritten text and predicts the most likely word or phrase intended by the teacher. Once the prediction is made, the microcontroller displays the corrected or predicted content on a display unit 113 installed at the front portion of the platform 101. This real-time correction ensures that students better comprehend the content, improving their understanding and learning experience.

[0046] The display unit 113 comprises an LED or LCD screen, a control board, a backlight arrangement, and input connectors. The LED/LCD screen serves as the main visual output, while the control board manages data input and image processing. The backlight arrangement, often made of LEDs, illuminates the screen, ensuring visibility. When information is sent to the display, the control board processes the data and directs the LED/LCD pixels to show specific colors, creating images or text. The backlight adjusts brightness for optimal clarity. This combined functionality enables the display unit 113 to accurately display ideal word or phrase written on board.

[0047] Based on pre-fed eyesight information of the student, the microcontroller dynamically adjusts the visual presentation on the display unit 113. This adjustment is made to accommodate students with weak eyesight, ensuring that the display is tailored to their specific visual needs. The microcontroller processes the eyesight data and modifies parameters such as font size, contrast, and brightness to provide an optimal viewing experience. This functionality ensures that students with visual impairments engage with the content effectively, promoting a more inclusive and accessible learning environment for all students.

[0048] Also, the authorized teacher is provided with access to real-time visuals of each student's furniture, facilitated by the imaging unit 106. The imaging unit 106 transmits a live feed from the platform 101 to a computing unit, which is accessible by the teacher. This setup enables the teacher to monitor the student's activity continuously during the examination. The real-time oversight ensures adherence to examination protocols and plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the testing process by preventing malpractices and ensuring that the examination environment remains secure and regulated throughout its duration.

[0049] Plurality of USB ports 114 are integrated into the platform 101, providing connectivity for external devices to facilitate data transfer. These ports 114 are configured to allow students to connect various peripherals, including but not limited to storage drives, projectors, and other compatible devices. The integration of these ports 114 ensures seamless communication between the platform 101 and external devices, enabling efficient data exchange and enhancing the overall functionality of the platform 101 during academic or operational activities. The inclusion of these USB ports 114 ensures compatibility with a wide range of devices, supporting diverse user needs in an interactive and flexible environment.

[0050] A simulated keyboard 115 is installed on the flat surface of the platform 101, enabling the student to input various instructions, responses, or answers to questions or tasks displayed on the associated display unit 113. The simulated keyboard 115 is electronically linked to the microcontroller, which processes the input provided by the student. This facilitates seamless interaction between the student and the furniture, allowing for prompt and accurate entry of responses.

[0051] Simultaneously, a plurality of vibrating units is installed beneath each key of the keyboard 115, designed to provide haptic feedback upon each key press. When a student presses down on a key, the force exerted on the key triggers the activation of the corresponding vibrating unit beneath the keys. This generates tactile feedback, providing the student with a physical sensation that confirms the input. The vibrating units are synchronized with the electrical signals of the keyboard 115, ensuring each key press corresponds with a responsive vibration, enhancing the overall user experience and promoting accuracy during input.

[0052] Each key on the keyboard 115 is equipped with a mechanical switch beneath it, which is triggered when the student applies downward pressure. As the key is pressed, the switch is activated, sending an electrical signal to the corresponding vibrating unit beneath the key. The vibrating unit, typically a small motor, then generates a vibration that is felt through the key. The vibration intensity varies based on the pressure or the specific key pressed, ensuring tactile feedback is provided immediately after each key press. This ensures real-time, accurate feedback for every interaction, enhancing user efficiency and input confirmation.

[0053] Further, a timer is interlinked with the microcontroller, which is programmed to accurately track and display the remaining time for the examination. This functionality ensures that the student is provided with a clear and consistent indication of the time left to complete the exam. The microcontroller processes the timer's data and updates the displayed countdown, thereby enabling the student to monitor the progression of the examination. This allows for effective time management by the student, ensuring they allocate sufficient time to each section of the test and complete the exam within the designated time frame.

[0054] In an embodiment of the present invention, upon activation of the examination mode, the microcontroller utilizes the imaging unit 106 in conjunction with a fingerprint sensor to authenticate whether the students are seated at their designated furniture. The imaging unit 106 scans the student's seating position and cross-references it with the pre-assigned seating arrangements. If a student is detected seated at a furniture like table that does not match their assigned seat, a red flashing alert is triggered. This alert is sent to the teacher, providing immediate notification, thereby enabling the teacher to intervene and assist the student in moving to the correct table.

[0055] The fingerprint sensor operates by capturing a high-resolution image of a user's fingerprint. Upon activation, the sensor illuminates the fingerprint with light, which is then reflected and detected by the sensor's array of sensors. The captured image is processed to extract unique patterns, such as ridges and valleys, which are converted into a digital template. This template is then compared with pre-stored fingerprint data in the database. If a match is found, the microcontroller confirms the user's identity and grants access or triggers the required action, such as seating validation during an examination.

[0056] In another embodiment of the present invention an IoT module works by connecting the platform 101 to a network, allowing real-time data exchange between the platform 101 and an external database or cloud service. As the student learns a specific topic, the IoT module accesses the pre-stored database of previous years' questions and relevant topics. By analyzing the student's current learning context, the IoT module identifies patterns and suggests related questions or topics. These suggestions are displayed on the display unit 113, enabling students to review frequently asked questions. This integration aids in efficient exam preparation by providing access to critical material linked to the topic being studied.

[0057] In another embodiment of the present invention the voice cancellation module operates by utilizing advanced signal processing protocols to detect and filter out background noise. The microphone 110 captures sound from the teacher's voice, as well as any ambient noise present in the classroom. The module processes this captured sound in real time, distinguishing the teacher's voice from surrounding noises. The microphone 110 then cancels out the unwanted noise frequencies, amplifying the teacher's voice for clearer transmission. The processed audio is sent to the speaker 111, ensuring that even students seated at the back of the classroom hear the teacher clearly, despite low volume or background noise.

[0058] In another embodiment of the present invention in case a student forgets to carry a book, the student access a digital database linked with microcontroller. The interface on the screen 104 of the student’s table allows them to browse or search for the required book by title, author, or subject. Upon selection, the book's details, including relevant content, chapters, or sections, will be displayed on the screen 104. This process ensures that the student can continue their lessons uninterrupted, with easy access to the needed study materials, without the physical book being present at the table.

[0059] Moreover, a battery is associated with the furniture for powering up electrical and electronically operated components associated with the furniture and supplying a voltage to the components. The battery used herein is preferably a Lithium-ion battery which is a rechargeable unit that demands power supply after getting drained. The battery stores the electric current derived from an external source in the form of chemical energy, which when required by the electronic component of the furniture, derives the required power from the battery for proper functioning of the furniture.

[0060] The present invention works best in the following manner, where the rectangular platform 101 as disclosed in the invention possesses four perpendicularly installed telescopic rods 102 with caster wheel 103 at the ends for the locomotion of the platform 101 to adapt to different seating arrangements or classroom configuration. The writing capacitive screen 104 accessed by the student for writing over the screen 104 via the integrated digital writing tool 105 provided on the platform 101. The sensing module detect force exerted by the student while writing and track the movements and trajectory of writing tool 105 as is it is used to write on the screen 104. Then the artificial intelligence-based imaging unit 106 synced with the integrated OCR (Optical Character Recognition) module to analyze captured data to compare what the teacher is writing on the board pre- and what the student is writing on the screen 104. Synchronously, the augmented reality (AR) holographic projector unit 108 highlight student’s error in the event of discrepancies. Multiple sliding overlapping panels 109 cover surrounding areas of platform 101, thereby preventing visual access to student’s screen 104 and written materials by other students during examination. The dedicated microphone 110 captures the voice of teacher and students during lecture or classroom session. And the speaker 111 is integrated into the platform 101 designed to amplify and transmit the captured teacher's voice through the platform 101 audio unit, ensuring that the student, including those seated at back of the classroom, hear the teacher's voice clearly. The dedicated storage chamber 112 allow student to store relevant books and study materials required for lectures. The imaging unit 106 monitors and identify each book or study material to maintain the storage log.
