2016 China Robot Industry Top 8 Events

There is still one last week of 2016, and it is the day of the year-end inventory.

In terms of conventional routines, I should find a TOP10, but from the breadth and depth of news dissemination and the news events that caused social discussion and attention, there are not so many, so I came out with such a TOP8.

In the Guangzhou branch of the Spring Festival Evening, 540 intelligent robots formed a small square array, accompanied by the singing and dancing skills of "Towards the Peak". Spring evening, the Lantern Festival party can't run anymore. The little robot below is just like this.

These robots are called Alpha1S and are independently developed by Ubisoft Technology Co., Ltd. The servo steering gear adopts the self-improved PID algorithm, which has large torque, small volume, high control precision and fast calculation, and the price is less than that of Japan and South Korea. One of the points.

AlphaGo is a Go artificial intelligence program developed by Google's DeepMind. Its main working principle is "deep learning." In March 2016, this program was a man-machine battle with Go World Champion and professional nine-segment player Li Shishi, and won with a total score of 4:1.

Many professional Go players believe that the chess power of Alpha Go has reached or even exceeded the level of Go's career. In the world's professional Go ranking, its score has surpassed the rank of the first player in chess Ke Jie.

On the afternoon of April 25, Li Keqiang came to Chengdu Jinglong, a small town in Chengdu, to communicate with entrepreneurs. The Prime Minister was invited to "cut and learn" the skills of the badminton robot designed by the entrepreneurial team. The weekly art section of the official website of the State Council produced a comic book for this purpose.

On April 15, Hefei, China Science and Technology University officially released China's first unique experience interactive robot "Jiajia". Jiajia robot is full-bodied and looks handsome. It is understood that the robot "Jiajia" initially has the functions of human-computer dialogue understanding, facial micro-expression, mouth and body movement matching, large-scale dynamic environment autonomous positioning navigation and cloud services. However, the 8-digit R&D cost does see the importance of the state's current robots.

Beijing time on July 9th, according to the "Wall Street Journal" online version reported that the US Dallas City police used a robot to kill a suspected assault police, two security researchers said on Friday that this may be the first intentional use of US law enforcement agencies The robot kills people. Detonate by placing the device in the bomb robot and then approaching the suspect.

This incident may also exacerbate discussions about robot wars. Last year, many top technical experts and scientists signed an open letter warning the dangers of artificial intelligence weapons.

On August 8th, after three months of acquisition, Midea Group eventually held a 94.55% stake in German Robotics.

The 100-year-old KUKA company is headquartered in the southern German city of Augsburg and is one of the world's leading manufacturers of industrial robots. KUKA is also a leading global supplier of robotics, automation equipment and solutions, focusing on industrial robot manufacturing and automation control systems.

Through this acquisition, Midea hopes to lay out the mid-stream final assembly link in the robot field and accumulate downstream application experience to lay the groundwork for its promotion in China.

During the National Day, foreign media DigiTImes reported that Dai Jiapeng, general manager of the Foxconn Automation Technology Development Committee, told CNA News that more than 40,000 robots have fully participated in the company's production process. He also said that Foxconn can build 10,000 robots a year, and they will continue to use robots to replace humans in the future. At the Kunshan plant alone, they have recently cut 60,000 employees. The industrial upgrading of the manufacturing industry, "machine substitution" has begun to implement from the slogan to the action.

On November 17, an accident occurred at the booth of a company of the 18th High-Tech Fair. Due to the improper operation of the exhibitor staff, the “forward button” was mistakenly used as the “back button”, which led to a robot (also known as “chubby”) used to assist in the display of projection technology hitting the booth glass, and the glass fell to the ground and collapsed. Scratching a live audience, causing his ankle to be smashed.

From the very beginning of this oolong news - the first robotic wounding incident in the country: the wounded have been carried away by the stretcher, to the truth, from the beginning of each media, to the rumors and rational analysis. All reflect the high attention of the community to the robot industry.
