The world robot industry in 2023 is another loud noise of the whale leaping through the sea, and it is also the opening of a new round of technological competition.

Benefiting from the introduction and landing of policies, the development logic of the robot industry has become increasingly clear. The “Robot +” application Action Implementation Plan issued in January this year proposes that by 2025, the density of manufacturing robots will double compared with 2020, and the application depth and breadth of service robots and special robots industries will be significantly improved.

The special robot policies successively issued by Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and other places give specific support to robot enterprises.

In the “Several Measures to promote the innovation and development of the robot industry in Beijing”, it is proposed in detail that “a robot industry fund with a scale of 10 billion yuan” and “support robot specialized and special new enterprises to quickly declare the Beijing Stock Exchange”; The “Shanghai Three-year Action Plan to Promote the high-quality Development of Manufacturing Industry (2023-2025)” clearly aims at the frontier of artificial intelligence technology, builds a general large model, and speeds up the innovation and development of humanoid robots; The Action Plan for Accelerating the high-quality Development and high-level application of Artificial Intelligence in Shenzhen (2023-2024) pointed out that the implementation of the core technology research carrier support plan will accelerate the establishment of Guangdong humanoid robot manufacturing innovation center.

A series of policies are resonating with the mission of the new era, which will unleash the infinite potential of science and technology.

Faced with the increasingly severe challenge of global population aging, the problem of labor shortage has become increasingly prominent. Under the huge labor gap and rising labor costs, how to achieve cost reduction and efficiency increase through the “machine replacement” of our industry and commerce has undoubtedly become the best solution.

Since this year, as the understanding of the combination of large models and robots has gradually become clear, robots seem to have the opportunity to better generalize their original capabilities to new scenarios. There are even views that “the emergence of large models has completed the technological foundation that has made the robot industry jump from 1% to 10%.”

At the same time, superimposing China’s advantages in intelligent manufacturing, such as talent, cost and industrial chain, undoubtedly makes China’s robot industry usher in a historic “innovation explosion” moment.

On August 21, at the 2023 World Robot Conference, the “Top Ten Frontier hot Areas of Robotics (2023-2024)” was released.

Embodied intelligence and vertical large models, humanoid and quadruped bionic robots, three-dimensional perceptual models and multi-modal information fusion… Which of them will overturn the unknown world?
