The 2026 Yangtze River Delta Robotics and Automation Exhibition was recently held in Wuxi, showcasing cutting-edge advancements in the deep integration of artificial intelligence and robotics.

At the heart of embodied intelligence are physical dexterity, as well as the computational power and data-processing capabilities of the robot "brain." At the Jiangsu Embodied Intelligence Robot Industrial Data Collection and Training Center, nearly 100 robots operate simultaneously, carrying out training and data collection tasks and generating more than 10 million high-quality industrial data records each year. This real-world data is continuously fed into large AI models for further refinement.

Center Director, Mr. Zhang

"Our robots have already been deployed in multiple factories to collect data in real-world working environments. Based on user feedback, we continue to optimize their performance, improving efficiency and adapting them to the specific needs of enterprises, with the ultimate goal of achieving mass production."

Embodied intelligence is transitioning from the conceptual stage to mass production, supported by advanced manufacturing capabilities, robust industrial data, and real-world application scenarios. Wuxi currently hosts 50 "data partner" enterprises that provide high- quality data across various sectors for robot training. Meanwhile, more than 170 embodied intelligence-related companies are helping drive the industry into a new era.
