An epoch-making breakthrough in the world of artificial intelligence and robotics is taking place in Shanghai, where China has inaugurated the world's first centre for training heterogeneous humanoid robots<\/strong>. The new Joint National and Local Centre for Innovation in Human Robotics<\/strong>located in the Zhangjiang district, covers over 5,000 square metres and represents one of the most ambitious infrastructures ever built in the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The centre is expected to be fully operational by July 2025<\/strong>but already beyond one hundred prototypes of humanoid robots<\/strong>from more than a dozen companies are participating in an intensive training programme. The objective is twofold: on the one hand to create a large shared database<\/strong> to improve machine learning, on the other hand to stimulate collaboration between companies and researchers, overcoming the currently existing technological fragmentation and promoting common standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A laboratory for evolving robots<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The general manager of the centre, Xu Bin<\/strong>explained that the infrastructure was designed to address some of the key challenges of humanoid robotics, such as the lack of interoperability<\/strong> between robots built by different manufacturers, which are often incompatible with each other due to different modules and designs. \"We created this centre to facilitate large-scale data sharing<\/strong>so as to strengthen the whole sector,' Xu stated in an interview with the Global Times<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The revolutionary aspect of this pole is not only the size or the number of robots involved, but above all the method of learning<\/strong> adopted. Robots are trained through fundamental motor activities<\/strong>defined as 'atomic abilities', which include actions such as grab<\/strong>, collect<\/strong>, place<\/strong> e transporting objects<\/strong>. Every movement is recorded and analysed with extreme precision thanks to the sensors integrated in the robots, which generate essential data for their improvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learning from human gestures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To feed this process, the centre employs a team of human trainers<\/strong> performing repetitive actions hundreds of times a day. The robots observe, record and attempt to replicate these gestures, thus developing increasingly refined motor skills. According to reports by The Paper<\/em>even a small variation in the shape or angle of an object provides unique data<\/strong>which are essential to teach robots to adapt to small but significant changes in their environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The director of market systems at the centre, Yang Zhengye<\/strong>explained that each step is documented in great detail. This data, fed into the development models, enables the robots to cope with more complex tasks<\/strong> autonomously. Currently, the centre is able to produce between 20,000 and 30,000 data sets per day<\/strong> and aims to surpass the 50,000 daily sets<\/strong> once fully operational, with the aim of collecting over 10 million real data items by the end of 2025<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ten application scenarios and millions of data<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The centre has identified ten main application scenarios<\/strong>ranging fromindustry<\/strong> at domestic services<\/strong>through the tourism<\/strong>, the healthcare<\/strong> and the maintenance in hazardous environments<\/strong>. Each scenario is divided into a series of specific sub-tasks<\/strong>such as folding clothes, assembling components, tidying up objects or cleaning industrial machinery. The aim is to train robots not only to perform simple functions, but also to solve complex problems in real-life situations, learning to react flexibly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A long-term strategic objective of the centre is the realisation of a data exchange platform<\/strong> between robot developers, enabling the sharing of information on specific tasks - such as the use of household appliances or healthcare - thus avoiding duplication of effort and accelerating technological innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this initiative, China consolidates its position of a global leader in the field of intelligent robotics<\/strong>charting the course towards a future in which humanoid robots can be integrated into many aspects of everyday and working life.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
