On November 2, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the "Guiding Opinions on the Innovation and Development of Humanoid Robots" (hereinafter referred to as the "Guiding Opinions") to promote the high-quality development of the humanoid robot industry, empower new industrialization at a high level, and strongly support modern industrial system construction. This document points out the direction for the development of the humanoid robot industry in the next few years, and also provides valuable opportunities for humanoid robot companies.
Dataa Robotics has always adhered to the development direction of cloud intelligent robots and is committed to building a cloud brain for them and providing human-like AGI. In 2022, Dataa was awarded the task of building a Cloud Robot " National New Generation AI Open Innovation Platform" by the Ministry of Science and Technology, becoming the first national enterprise in this field. Dataa has been actively participating in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's planning and design work for the robot industry, emphasizing the importance of establishing a robot brain, and is the main participating expert unit in the "Guiding Opinions". The release of this policy by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has further strengthened Dataa’s confidence in building a cloud robot industry ecosystem.
The "Guiding Opinions" clearly stated that by 2025, the humanoid robot innovation system must be initially established, and a number of key technologies such as "brain, cerebellum, and limbs" should achieve some breakthroughs. By 2027, the technological innovation capabilities of humanoid robots will be significantly improved, forming a safe and reliable industrial chain supply chain system, and building an internationally competitive industrial ecology, and comprehensive strength reaches the world's advanced level. This goal coincides with the "cloud (cloud brain) + network (security network) + terminal (robot terminal)" technical architecture advocated by Dataa Robotics. Dataa is continuously developing and improving the Harix cloud brain, the smart compliant actuator (SCA) of robots and a variety of intelligent robot hardware, all of which are highly consistent with the guiding policies.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology stated that humanoid robots integrate advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, high-end manufacturing, and new materials, and are expected to become disruptive products after computers, smartphones, and new energy vehicles. Humanoid robots have great development potential and broad application prospects, and they are also a new track for future industries. Mr. Huang Xiaoqing, the founder, chairman and CEO of Dataa Robotics always firmly believes that cloud intelligent robots are the third "computer" for mankind after personal computers and smartphones, and "cloud-network-end" is the best architecture for intelligent robots. In the cloud robotics technology stack, AI large models also play a key part. RobotGPT, a multi-modal large-scale robot model of Dataa, starts from the robotics industry and helps customers create customized and the exclusive GPT, which greatly expands the market space for robot applications and provides strong support for the commercialization of humanoid robots. This innovative solution is also consistent with the guiding ideology and tasks of the "Guiding Opinions".
The "Guiding Opinions" also emphasized accelerating the application of humanoid robots in special environments, manufacturing, and people's livelihood services. Dataa Robotics believes that for the landing of humanoid robots, it is imperative to improve the hands and feet of robots, so that they can undertake more practical work, which is also the direction that Dataa is currently actively promoting.
Since 2017, Cloud Ginger, a soft and elegant humanoid robot with dexterous hands and more than 30 smart compliant actuators, has been widely used in fields such as finance, medical care, manufacturing, retail, government affairs, real estate, and education to meet the needs of high-quality life, such as welcome reception, guidance and explanation, commercial retail, group dance performance, business management, elderly care companionship, production and manufacturing, etc. Dataa Robotics is developing the bipedal robot XR4--one of the Seven Fairies named Xiaozi. She has a human-like appearance and movement ability, can work in environments that are difficult for humans, and has a wide range of application prospects, such as elderly care, 3C manufacturing, disaster rescue, and space exploration, film and TV series production, etc.
The release of the "Guiding Opinions" also heralds that China's humanoid robot industry will usher in new development opportunities. With policy support and increasing market demand, the application scenarios of humanoid robots will be more abundant in the future, the industrial chain will be more complete, and innovative technologies will be more widely used.
In this process, as a forerunner in the humanoid robot industry, Dataa will play a greater role, actively participate in the formulation of international and domestic robot standards, and work with partners in various industries to build a complete robot ecosystem. At present, Dataa's cloud brain operating system Harix has been widely used and recognized. Hundreds of companies, colleges and scientific research institutions have used Harix, and nearly a hundred different types of robots have been connected to the operating system. . Through this operating system, enterprises, universities and scientific research institutions can more easily develop and deploy cloud intelligent robot applications.
In the future, Dataa Robotics will continue to leverage its leading advantages in the field of cloud intelligent robot technology, accelerate the application of humanoid robots in various fields, actively promote the development of the entire industry, and create a better future for mankind.
