According to the news from CCTV News Broadcast: With the development of artificial intelligence technology, embodied intelligent robots are starting to integrate into our production and life, opening up more and more new ways of human-robot collaboration.

During the “May Day” holiday, in the tea gardens of Hangzhou, Zhejiang, this tea-picking robot developed by teachers and students of Zhejiang Sci-Tech University, which can identify tea with its “intelligent eyes”, is busily working in the tea garden. By using the equipped depth camera to obtain the three-dimensional information of the tender shoots, it can lock the specific position of the tender shoots. Then, the two robotic arms will quickly move over, clamp the tea leaves and break them off. Its biggest feature is that it can simulate the tea-picking techniques of manual picking as much as possible, reducing the damage to the tender shoots. At present, this tea-picking robot is in the experimental stage, and the tea-picking success rate has exceeded 87%. In addition to the tea-picking robot, there are also quadruped robots running flexibly and busily in the tea garden, acting as tea “couriers”, bringing a new experience to tea picking with various technological elements.

Currently, various places are continuously increasing the opening of application scenarios for embodied intelligence, promoting more and more smart robots to enter our lives. Through technological iteration, they help to make production labor safer and more efficient. In Mianyang, Sichuan, quadruped police robot dogs equipped with acoustic, optical and electrical devices and panoramic pan-tilt are cooperating with police officers to complete their duty work.

In Nanjing, Jiangsu, the first humanoid robot that has obtained the explosion-proof grade certification is undergoing duty drills. In its toolbox, various tools such as electric drills, saws, and grippers are installed, which can be freely switched. Through multi-modal technology recognition such as images, videos, voiceprints, gases, and vibrations, it can replace humans to conduct inspections and troubleshoot faults in some high-risk scenarios.

At Hebei University of Technology, after years of research and development, this elderly care robot can, with the cooperation of engineers, stretch out its extra-long arms, steadily lift a student from the bed and transfer her to a wheelchair.
