Since we are on Chinese education, the topic of academic performance is likely to come up and the oft-repeated claim that China students are better than US ones.
For a contrary view from a Professor at China's top business school see Bloomberg's China's Top Economic Risk? Education article, key quotes:

I wonder how well this tech would function when applied to a variety of people with different facial features than what a typical Chinese person possesses. I remember a facial recognition company a while ago telling us in a training class that they had difficulty training their system to differentiate different asian facial features as opposed to non-asian facial features. I wonder if these guys would face similar issue.
Either way im glad i didnt grow up in an age of video surveillance. How stressful I imagine that would be to be constantly evaluated.

I look forward to telling a friend who is a high school vice principal, that now he can evaluate teachers using this tool and recommend firing any teacher whose students don't raise their hands enough, smile enough, or appear to be alert enough.

The image shows all the asian kids being serious and the caucasion kid is goofing off. i am deeply offended by that.... J/K, i think its hilarious.
Back on topic, i dont get excited about all this bleeding edge technology anymore. Normally it simply doesn't work anywhere close to what customers expect. Nonetheless, someone or some company has to start somewhere with it.

Very much against this. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for getting some discipline back in schools, but having this going in entirely the wrong direction. Respect and human interaction trumps machine learning by far.

Thankfully GDPR will prevent this to happen in European schools :)

ASIS should partner with Hikvision and deploy this inside their GSX learning sessions.

Update:
The system also displays a list of students who are not focused:
And we verified the other UI segment ranks students by how focused the system believes they are.
Chinese video clip where this is from here.

Does it matter if it works? To me what matters is that this use case was thought enough about to attempt it. Now think about all of the other possibilities that can be applied to this type of technology. Innovation comes from these basic beginnings. And sometimes innovation is scary.
Data is powerful and lucrative. If there is a desire (demand) to identify trends, detect anomalies, etc., someone is going to try and build the solution (supply). Once the behaviors can be measured, they can be predicted. Maybe it won't be Hikvision, but eventually somebody may succeed at this.
Phillip K. Dick's precog psychics may have been a stretch but the idea of predicting behavior is upon us. Call Tom Cruise, reactivate the PreCrime unit.

Hi
AI is one of those things that are too useful to discard and too dangerous to take lightly ...
Under the guise of improving scholastic performance we are supposed to be watching a child emotions... to what purpose? Who's watching the watchers ...
As dystopian as it gets, creepy doesn't even begin to qualify it.
