Learning Chinese characters can be a hard job for foreigners and even for young Chinese.The good news is that Chinese Character Origin Cards，a new product，can make learning them easy and fun.
Can you picture 108 Chinese characters such as ren （person），niao （bird），and lei （thunder） coming alive right in front of your eyes，telling you how they have developed from the symbols carved on ancient animal bones all the way to what they look like now？This may sound impossible，but it's just what the cards promise their users.
The cards were co-developed by an American expert Richard Sears and Shiwangme，a company mainly developing AR and AI applications. "I liked the idea of using 2 D animation，together with 3 D AR to show the correct origin （起源）of Chinese characters to Chinese children，" said Sears，who decided to work as a special expert with Shiwangme to develop the product in 2018.
"With Sears's years of research and his strong database，we are able to show learners the development of Chinese characters correctly，" said Shiwangme CEO Zhang Shuai.The AR featured in the cards "would surely offer users high-tech excitements and make the learning experience much more fun"，Zhang added.
The cards have been welcomed in the market and Sears won the Jinling Friendship Award.However，Zhang and Sears won't rest on their achievements.According to Zhang，this is only the first set of cards.They will roll out two more.A total of 324 Chinese characters will be included to help Chinese learners build a strong basis.
