The 2024 World Robot Conference wrapped up in Beijing this week, delivering a sci-fi-level showcase of innovation with over 600 robots stealing the spotlight! From brainwave-controlled bots to record-breaking humanoid designs, here's why tech lovers are buzzing.
Dubbed the \"Co-Fostering New Quality Productive Forces for a Shared Intelligent Future\" event, the conference featured three main acts: forums for big ideas, expos for flashy demos, and competitions where 13,000+ participants flexed their robotics skills. A crowd favorite? The brain-computer interface contest where visitors typed numbers without lifting a finger—just using their thoughts and eye movements.
Humanoid robots dominated the expo floor with 27 models strutting their stuff. Highlights included the sleek \"Tiangong\" AI robot and Unitree G1's nimble prototype—both proving robots could soon be your coworker, nurse, or barista. Industrial, healthcare, and service applications took center stage, but experts like Professor Gai Keke from Beijing Institute of Technology emphasized untapped potential in agriculture and education too.
\"China's robotics growth isn't just about tech—it's about massive markets and talent,\" Gai told CGTN, pointing to the country's complete supply chains and skilled workforce. With 169 exhibitors and 60+ debut bots, this conference cemented China’s role as a global robotics powerhouse.
