The 20th China International Small and Medium Enterprises Fair (CISMEF) was recently held in Guangzhou, attracting over 56,000 exhibitors showcasing their latest breakthroughs.

A major highlight at the event was a multi-port surgical robot from Shanghai. Equipped with four high-precision robotic arms, the system provides surgeons with a glasses-free 3D view and 10x magnification—enabling ultra-precise operations. It has already performed over 400 complex telesurgeries across Asia, the Americas, and Africa, setting more than 20 world records, including performing procedures from 12,000 km away.

Another showstopper was the multi-morphology bipedal robots. One maintains rock-solid stability even during high-speed rotation, while the other can self-recover from falls without external assistance—ideal for patrolling factories, industrial parks, and high-security zones.

A Guangdong startup also wowed attendees with its wearable, gesture-controlled combat robot. Equipped with 11 high-response sensors with less than 20 ms latency, it delivers seamless human-robot synergy—literally moving in sync with the wearer.
