DFRobot Invited to Attend Chiang Mai University's Education Innovation Conference and Host Data Science & AI Workshop
SHANGHAI, July 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- On July 4, 2025, DFRobot participated in the 4th National and the 2nd International Conference on Education (THE NICE EDU CMU 2025), organized by the Faculty of Education at Chiang Mai University, Thailand. With the theme "Innovative Learning and Emerging Technologies: Transforming Education for the Future," the conference brought together leading educators, scholars, and graduate students from around the world to discuss the latest trends, research, and innovations in education. Key research sessions covered topics including Innovation and Technology for Teaching and Learning, Future Skills for Future Education, Inclusive Education, and other important areas, showcasing cutting-edge global trends and developments in education. On July 5, DFRobot hosted a workshop at the Chiang Mai University Demonstration School (CMUD) titled "Workshop with Data Science: Discuss about STEM Tools: Collaboration." The workshop gathered 43 students alongside teachers, pre-service teachers, and staff. During the workshop, DFRobot introduced its innovative UNIHIKER K10 AI Coding Board for K12 STEM and beginners. The UNIHIKER K10 stands out by combining vision AI, voice control, and TinyML machine learning in a single, compact device. It is equipped with a 2.8-inch color display, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, and various sensors, including a 2MP camera, microphone, speaker, RGB lighting, and multiple environmental detectors. At the event, DFRobot showcased the UNIHIKER K10's voice and image recognition capabilities and demonstrated how it can be integrated with the XiaoZhi AI-ESP32 firmware. This integration transforms the UNIHIKER K10 into a conversational AI chatbot that can communicate in Thai. Through these hands-on activities, both teachers and students enhanced their creativity and problem-solving skills, gaining the ability to leverage AI to tackle real-world challenges in their everyday lives. DFRobot also showcased its broader "Empowering the Future Learning with Artificial Intelligence Solutions" lineup. This comprehensive suite includes the UNIHIKER K10, alongside the UNIHIKER M10, a single-board computer designed to make Python programming accessible for both teachers and students, enabling them to begin coding in just two steps. Additionally, the micro:Maqueen Plus V3 was presented as an advanced STEAM educational robot for primary and secondary students, boasting robust expandability and competition-ready features to inspire hands-on robotics learning and innovation, and other educational products such as the BOSON AI Starter Kit. "DFRobot's engaging presentations and interactive demonstrations sparked significant enthusiasm among educators and students to integrate AI and programming into education," said Sandy Zhang, CMO of DFRobot.

Who could win and lose on tighter Trump AI controls? UBS weighs in
-- UBS analysts warn that the reported new U.S. export restrictions on AI chips to Malaysia and Thailand could create turbulence for tech investors, as the Trump administration aims to block China's indirect access to high-performance semiconductors. 'The Trump administration is preparing new restrictions on AI chip exports to Malaysia and Thailand,' UBS noted, citing Bloomberg, 'with the aim of preventing advanced processors from reaching China via third countries.' Malaysia is said to now account for nearly 12% of NVIDIA's global sales, making it a key AI data center hub. The proposed Commerce Department rule would target chipmakers like NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA). UBS highlighted that 'new regulations, on the heels of the June rally, could trigger volatility,' especially as recent tech gains were driven more by 'price-to-earnings multiple expansion than by positive earnings revisions.' With companies now in their earnings blackout period, UBS believes 'there is less room for any misses in second-quarter results.' Despite the regulatory overhang, UBS sees some potential winners. 'American data center operators will still be allowed to import US AI chips,' meaning that U.S. hyperscalers like Google (NASDAQ:GOOGL) and Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) can continue regional expansion. UBS added that 'Malaysian companies primarily serving US-backed projects should remain relatively insulated.' However, firms building data centers 'speculatively or targeting Chinese demand may be more exposed to order cancelations or project delays.' UBS also noted that 'data center stocks in Southeast Asia may be more sensitive in the near term to headline risk.' Overall, UBS remains constructive on the long-term outlook. 'We believe the robust secular trends in AI will continue to drive long-term gains in the tech sector,' the analysts wrote, even as they advise a 'balanced portfolio stance within tech and the AI value chain.'

Citi lifts Nvidia's price target on booming sovereign AI demand
Citi (C) is doubling down on Nvidia (NVDA), driven by what it sees as a major expansion in demand for AI infrastructure, particularly from sovereign governments. The firm raised its price target on the chipmaker to $190 per share, implying a roughly 15% upside from Nvidia's current trading levels. Citi analysts said they see Nvidia capturing a larger piece of an expanding total addressable market (TAM) for data center infrastructure. The upgrade comes as Nvidia continues its charge toward a $4 trillion market cap, with shares up 12% in the past month. "We believe sovereign demand is already contributing up to billions of dollars in 2025" and should ramp up further in 2026, analysts Atif Malik and Papa Sylla wrote. Nvidia is involved in "essentially every sovereign deal," the note said, making the company central to the global race to build national AI infrastructure. The firm raised its 2028 AI compute TAM estimate to $563 billion, up 13% from $500 billion, and networking TAM to $119 billion, up from $90 billion, expecting sharp sales increases for Nvidia. Citi noted that at Nvidia's recent Generative AI conference, participants discussed a possible benchmark for AI infrastructure: one supercomputer or 10,000 GPUs per 100,000 employees, a ratio that could drive massive enterprise and government buildouts. Nvidia, whose Blackwell GB200 chips power many of these AI clusters, is already seeing accelerating deployment, according to Citi. Concerns about potential bottlenecks in Nvidia's supply chain have also eased, with Citi reporting that rack buildouts are happening "at a rapid pace." As the company prepares for its next-gen GB300 chips, analysts expect a smooth transition, crediting lessons learned from earlier platform shifts. Citi now expects Nvidia's data center revenue to grow 5% in FY 2027 and 11% in FY 2028. Networking sales are projected to surge by 12% and 27%, respectively. This represents a 20% attach rate, indicating a rising demand for high-performance systems that link large AI clusters. Gross margins are also forecast to continue expanding, normalizing in the mid-70% range by year-end. Still, the bank flagged downside risks, including renewed export restrictions under a potential second Trump administration. Bloomberg recently reported that Malaysia and Thailand could face scrutiny for suspected shipments to China. For now, though, the AI gold rush — especially from public sector buyers — shows no signs of slowing. "Nvidia has line of sight to tens of gigawatts of sovereign and enterprise AI factory buildouts over the next few years," Malik and Sylla wrote. Francisco Velasquez is a reporter for Yahoo Finance.
