have you ever seen a robot that wants to “learn”? on the morning of september 26, the 2024 national local media editor-in-chief watched the wuxi event and walked into qiuzhi technology (wuxi) co., ltd. located in binhu district, wuxi to experience the most cutting-edge robot application scenarios. the company is an innovative technology company based on the integration and innovation of artificial intelligence and robots. it was incubated and established in 2023 by the intelligent industry research institute of tsinghua university.

the company's promotional video outlines the vision of "robots entering thousands of households". the person in charge of the company said that the robot can become your "working partner", help you complete the remaining work and let you go home early; it can also become your "life butler", preparing fruit plates and pouring drinks for you in advance... "these the future scenario is the direction of the company's efforts, so that robot technology can empower industrial upgrading and make human life better."

at the scene, the r&d personnel demonstrated the "learning" process of the mobile lifting dual-arm robot to the editors-in-chief. i saw that the r&d personnel were wearing teaching backpacks. after demonstrating specific movements with their arms, the two-arm robot would learn and imitate it, and could already complete actions such as grabbing fruits and wooden blocks. after collecting multiple demonstration actions, the robot will be able to complete the corresponding operations independently through artificial intelligence algorithm training.

"of course, the development of any industry does not happen overnight and requires the simultaneous progress of scientific research institutes and enterprises." the person in charge said that the company is currently committed to the scientific research and education market and service industry and manufacturing applications, providing embodied intelligent solutions and autonomous driving solutions , ai+ robot training solutions, intelligent manufacturing training solutions, etc. the newly launched robot products and systems are currently mainly targeted at scientific research and teaching training in colleges and universities to facilitate their support for embodied intelligent algorithm research and intelligent robot application teaching.

in july this year, the mobile lifting dual-arm robot independently developed by qiuzhi technology officially opened for pre-sale. its humanoid arms can achieve independent and collaborative operations, and is equipped with a depth camera and teaching pendant to fully support tailor-made intelligent algorithms. data collection is compatible with embodied intelligence pre-training mode, imitation learning and other algorithm deployments. once the robot was launched, it was widely praised by customers due to the stability of the product's software and hardware and the performance of its after-sales support, and demand exceeded supply.

the person in charge also said that for the artificial intelligence robot-related products currently launched by the company, all links such as the robot body, motion control, and intelligent system (including data closed loop) have been independently developed and are at the leading level in the domestic and foreign industries.

at the scene, many editors-in-chief were also eager to try and experience it. xiao haili, director of dahe communication research institute of dahe daily, put on the teaching backpack, but the first experience was not as easy as imagined. based on the relative distance between the two-arm robot and the prop grape, she tried to control her strength and moved her arms in small steps to demonstrate to the robot. after several attempts to adapt to the robot's teleoperation method, she successfully let the robot grasp it. props grapes. after the first success, subsequent operations became more comfortable.

"it's amazing!" xiao haili was a little excited. "i used to think that robots were still a little far away from our lives. today, i actually taught robots. i saw that robots in various forms can complete cooking, setting tables, chopsticks, and even toasts." the functions are very user-friendly. i hope these robots can be used in life as soon as possible to make our lives more convenient.”
