The 13th China International Robot Summit Forum was successfully held on May 16-18, 2023. This event focuses on the global robotics industry's cutting-edge hot spots, core technologies, innovative applications, business models, and hot topics in the development of the national robotics industry. It analyzes industry development trends, provides suggestions for bottlenecks in the development of the robotics industry, and promotes the rapid and healthy development of my country's robotics industry. .

Humanoid robot Walker explores the path of smart factories Fu Chunjiang, Vice President of UBTECH Technology and Head of the Humanoid Robot Division, delivered a speech

At the forum, Fu Chunjiang, vice president of UBTECH and head of the humanoid robot division, delivered a keynote speech titled "The Wonderful Encounter between Humanoid Robots and Large Models". His view is that humanoid robots can become the "physical vehicle" for general artificial intelligence, thus erasing the boundaries between virtual and reality. In the context of displaying smart factories, UBTECH Technology explored a new direction for the commercial application of the large humanoid robot Walker.

New exploration of intelligent manufacturing

Against the backdrop of rising labor costs in China and the gradual decline of the demographic dividend, the "14th Five-Year Plan" points out that it is necessary to focus on the development and promotion of humanoid robots for factories, warehousing and logistics and other fields, and to further promote intelligent manufacturing. sex. At the same time, the "Robot Application Action Implementation Plan" issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and other 17 departments pointed out that in industries such as automobiles, electronics, machinery, and light industry that have formed large-scale applications, professional and customized robot solutions will be promoted. The application of the plan in key links.

After continuous training and testing in smart factory scenarios, the large humanoid robot Walker can be used in SPS intelligent sorting and aging tests. This is another innovation and exploration on the road to commercial application of humanoid robots.

Full stack technology empowerment scenario

Walker can be "embedded" into highly repetitive, low-load production processes by linking with the unmanned handling robot AGV, thereby improving the efficiency and flexibility of the factory. Its full-stack technology is reflected in the following aspects:

Autonomous hand-eye coordination grasping technology: To achieve grasping, Walker uses 3D depth information to detect the precise 6D pose of the object and generate the 6D grasping pose with the highest success rate. Based on the single-arm or double-arm autonomous motion planning algorithm, a collision-free grasping path can be generated to ensure that the object is successfully grasped.

Object 6D pose recognition technology: Through advanced vision systems, Walker can independently identify different components and tools that need to be operated in smart factories to complete a variety of tasks. To ensure that Walker does not confuse different objects (such as SPS components), the recognition accuracy of the object recognition system is very high.

High-precision U-SLAM navigation: Applying high-precision U-SLAM system and semantic navigation, Walker can coordinate, collect and transfer robot components. Walker can notify the AGV to move to the next location based on the progress to coordinate the sorting process of SPS components to speed up the process. Walker will notify the AGV or other equipment when the task is completed and take them to the next stage.

Operation space obstacle avoidance: UBTECH has designed a safe control trajectory for Walker, including the upper body and arms, so that Walker can actively avoid obstacles when encountering obstacles on the path and the AGV cooperating with it. The difficulty is that Walker uses its depth and ultrasonic sensors to accurately detect objects such as component racks, control panels, boxes, etc. in its operating workspace, and uses advanced inverse dynamics models and MPC to accurately avoid objects when grabbing or manipulating them.

Humanoid robots give artificial intelligence a “physical body”

Youbi Technology is one of the very few companies in the world that has a complete humanoid robot technology system. They have been engaged in in-depth research in the humanoid robot industry for 11 years. As of December 31, 2022, the company has applied for more than 3,100 patents and has more than 1,600 authorized patents, of which invention patents account for nearly 50%. Its innovation capabilities are recognized by the industry. Since the establishment of the project in 2015, the large-scale humanoid robot Walker has achieved four major iterations. In 2019, it became the only Chinese humanoid robot selected into the top five humanoid robots worthy of attention in the world by "The Robot Report".

As China’s first commercialized bipedal life-size humanoid robot, Walker has been applied in scenarios such as the China Pavilion at the Dubai World Expo, Saudi NEOM New Future City, China Science and Technology Museum, and Shijiazhuang AI Education and Training Base.

As a multi-functional and universal robot platform, humanoid robots can better adapt to human production and living environments, use human tools, and interact with people more naturally. They are the best carriers of AI full-stack technology. We believe that human demand for humanoid robots will gradually increase in the future, and we also expect humanoid robots to be widely used in intelligent manufacturing and become future productivity.
