In the outdoor exhibition zone, a piano-playing robot delivered smooth melodies with finger precision of 0.02 millimeters, a squad of mechs performed synchronized dances with movement errors under 0.1 seconds, and a kung fu robot executed a full set of Shaolin boxing routines flawlessly.
The indoor exhibition hall showcased humanoid robots capable of free movement and conversation, quadruped robots rolling and climbing stairs, and fire-fighting robots simulating fire suppression. Nearly 70 brands set up booths, presenting a full spectrum of robots ranging from household service models to industrial inspection units.
Humanoid robots and four-legged robotic dogs move with ease.
