Native	音乐教育一直以来是由严格的、以教师为中心的课程主导的，乐理知识往往抽象而晦涩，孩子理解起来难度极大。PolyBeat音乐节奏训练器是一款专为儿童设计的智能产品，旨在通过有趣、互动的方式帮助他们学习乐理知识。PolyBeat通过将乐理知识和几何图形相结合，制作一个面向儿童的节奏启蒙玩具。儿童可以通过这个玩具培养节奏感，也可以自己动手制作音乐。PolyBeat节奏训练智能产品可以与儿童进行互动式教学，利用节奏可视化帮助理解音乐类型与鼓的节奏型关系，弄清节奏规律。由多块节奏积木、圆盘和底座组成，每种积木对应不同的音符，利用颜色、形状进行区分。将积木组装在圆盘上创造出一个节奏片段，4个圆盘为一个音乐小节，通过摄像头识别，按下底座的按键播放。PolyBeat包括自由创作和读谱练习两个模式。提供节奏卡，儿童通过阅读卡片，选择与卡片对应的音符积木，搭配成功可播放系统提供的对应节奏的音乐片段。旨在培养儿童节奏感，促进儿童对乐理知识理解，同时锻炼手眼协调能力，加强孩子的专注力。本产品玩法多样，支持DIY，持续激发儿童兴趣，开发儿童的创造力和想象力。
