Over Ten Leading Products Launched, Humanoid Robots Steal the Spotlight -- Beijing E-Town Establishes a Complete Robotic Industry Chain

BEIJING, CHINA - Media OutReach Newswire - 26 August 2024 - After achieving the world's first humanoid running with a full-sized pure electric humanoid robot, "Tiangong" has demonstrated new skills. Walker S Lite has started its training in automotive smart factories, and the world's first orthopedic surgical robot equipped with AI deep learning technology has been unveiled. Soft robots have also broken through industrial application bottlenecks. On August 21, the 2024 World Robot Conference opened in Beijing E-Town (Beijing Economic-Technological Development Area), showcasing over ten innovative products from Beijing E-Town at the 2024 World Robot Expo, with humanoid robots taking center stage. Through "Robot Mobilization," Beijing E-Town has developed internationally leading humanoid robots, AI medical robots, and autonomously controlled key components, transforming these advancements into new productivity and continuously enhancing the innovation capability of the robot industry.

Dancing, bowing, greeting, grabbing objects by sound... when the nation's first general-purpose humanoid robot platform "Tiangong" demonstrated these new skills, it once again caught attention. The last sensation was in April this year, when "Tiangong," independently developed by the Beijing Embodied Intelligence Robot Innovation Center (referred to as the "Innovation Center"), achieved the world's first humanoid running at a stable speed of 6 km/h with a full-sized pure electric humanoid robot. Four months later, "Tiangong" has been upgraded again, using a predictive reinforcement imitation learning method based on state memory, mastering more varied movements and speech-interactive grabbing capabilities under the support of a large embodied intelligence model. "When a person gives a voice command, the embodied intelligent robot can complete a set of grab-and-release actions based on the 'open vocabulary object detection and arbitrary object segmentation multimodal model.' We have now connected the embodied intelligence model pipeline, meaning robots can understand human commands, break down tasks, and complete them. In the future, robots will be able to help humans with more tasks," explained Zhang Qiang, a humanoid robot algorithm expert at the Innovation Center. "We are committed to the development of key technologies and ecosystem construction for embodied intelligent robots. Currently, we are based in Beijing E-Town, and through the 'Tiangong' and 'Kaiwu' projects, we aim to promote technological innovation and industrial development, leading the industry in solving common problems."
