The AI lab project, a collaboration between the Y.S. Educational Foundation and The Affiliated Senior High School of National Taiwan Normal University (HSNU), is a significant initiative aimed at advancing technology education and intelligent technology applications. This project not only upgrades the information facilities at HSNU but also provides cutting-edge AI technology resources, with the goal of nurturing the next generation of tech leaders.
The AI lab donated by the Y.S. Educational Foundation includes a big data center and a smart library, featuring key equipment such as AI servers and BI hosts. Given that HSNU’s IT room does not have a dedicated temperature-controlled server room, managing heat during the full-speed operation of AI servers posed a challenge, potentially risking equipment performance. To address this issue, the Y.S. Educational Foundation chose to collaborate with MTAC to procure the MiRack AI Cabinet, which allows HSNU to safely and efficiently operate AI servers and other high-performance equipment without the need for an additional temperature-controlled server room.
The advanced educational resource center was officially inaugurated during the school’s anniversary and AI lab unveiling ceremony. The principal highlighted the significance of this initiative and expressed gratitude to the Y.S. Educational Foundation and MiTAC-SYNNEX Group for their generous contributions. This ceremony was not only a major highlight of the school’s 77th anniversary but also a significant milestone for the future of technology education.
The combined value of the hardware and software equipment provided by the Y.S. Educational Foundation and MiTAC-SYNNEX Group is NT$16 million. This includes the MiRack AI Cabinet, Nvidia GPUs, AI servers, and gaming laptops. These resources not only provide an advanced hardware foundation but also include a rich curriculum plan, enabling students to delve into AI algorithms and practical applications, and participate in international AI competitions to enhance their technological innovation and problem-solving skills.
The success of the Y.S. Educational Foundation and HSNU AI lab project demonstrates the power of public-private partnerships and shared commitment to technology education. This project not only elevates the educational standards of HSNU but also opens doors to future opportunities for students. We look forward to seeing more young learners thrive in this enriching environment and become the technology leaders of tomorrow. This case exemplifies the Y.S. Educational Foundation and MiTAC-SYNNEX Group’s commitment to education and technological development and their proactive investment in future talent cultivation.
