News from this web (Correspondent Wu Zhengyan, Reporters Zhao Dandan, Zhou Wenhan, Zhang Rui) On February 28, the inaugural General Technology Platform for Intelligent Robotics Developers Conference commenced in Wuhu. Vice Governor Li Zhong declared the conference open. The event gathered over 700 global participants including developers, experts, scholars, and industry representatives, notably Academician Ding Han of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Liu Jinchang (Researcher at the High-tech Center of NSFC and Level-2 Professional from MOST), and Song Xiaogang, Secretary-General of China Machinery Industry Federation. Municipal leaders present included: Ning Bo (Party Secretary), Xu Zhi (Deputy Party Secretary and Mayor), Zhang Feng (Director of the Municipal People's Congress Standing Committee), Zhang Dong (Chairman of the Municipal CPPCC), along with municipal leaders Wei Xiufang and Hou Mingwen.
Ningbo welcomes all the guests for their arrival. He stated that Wuhu is deeply learning and implementing General Secretary Xi Jinping's important instructions on developing industries such as artificial intelligence and robotics, vigorously carrying out the 'Artificial Intelligence +' action, promoting the deep integration of artificial intelligence and the robotics industry, and leading the robotics industry to continuously achieve new breakthroughs. Wuhu has a good industrial foundation, abundant intelligent computing resources, rich application scenarios, a strong atmosphere of innovation and entrepreneurship, and a first-class business environment. It sincerely invites all academicians, experts, and entrepreneurs to come to Wuhu, choose Wuhu, invest in Wuhu, and start businesses in Wuhu, working together to create a new ecosystem for the development of the intelligent robotics industry and jointly create a new future for intelligent manufacturing.
Song Xiaogang pointed out that in recent years, the global industrial robot industry has entered a period of rapid growth, and the technical level, production capacity and market share of independent brand robots have continued to improve. At present, with the transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing and service industries, the robot industry has ushered in a broader market demand. Robots + artificial intelligence have further expanded market applications and provided effective support for robots to empower thousands of industries. The future robot industry must keep pace with the high-end and intelligent manufacturing industry. The development of a general technology base for intelligent robots is a solid step for the robot industry to transform and upgrade and move towards a new era of intelligence. I hope that all industry leaders and cross-border elites will actively contribute ideas and jointly plan the construction of a robot intelligent ecosystem to promote the integrated development of robots + artificial intelligence and collaborative innovation.
At the meeting, 22 well-known companies and universities in the intelligent robot industry chain jointly signed an ecological cooperation agreement. Efort Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. released "Intelligent Robot General Technology Base Products and Solutions". Ding Han, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Darwin Caldwell, an academician of the Royal Academy of Engineering, and Christian Ott, a researcher at the Robotics Institute of the German Aerospace Center and a professor at the Vienna University of Technology, gave keynote speeches.
