Honda halts ASIMO humanoid robot development project
The research and development process of robots requires a lot of investment in money and manpower, especially in products with special functions. In July this year, Japanese
car manufacturer Honda stated that it would stop developing the humanoid robot ASIMO. As the world”s first humanoid robot, the product has completed its seventh iteration
and is already capable of running, jumping, climbing stairs, opening drinks, and kicking. It has many abilities including football and even dancing, being able to hear and
understand three people speaking at the same time, and interpret gestures and respond to various commands.
Although the research and development of the ASIMO project has stopped, the project retains a number of technologies that can be used in mobile robots and self-driving cars,
because many technologies in ASIMO are still world-leading. ASIMO has gone through a long period of research and development upgrades, but it is still far from commercial
application, and the price is difficult for users to accept. Honda finally chose to give up.
Comments: Technology innovation and research and development to real commercial applications need to cross many gaps. Currently, humanoid robots are still a difficult
problem to break through in commercial applications. In addition to pleasing the audience, humanoid robots are difficult to form real commercial value. At this stage, the market
needs products that meet the application needs of various industries, such as four- and six-axis industrial robots, collaborative robots, etc., so the robot R&D
department needs to make appropriate choices.
FANUC Robotics” new factory starts construction in Guangzhou
On March 28, Fanuc, a leading company in the global robotics industry, held a groundbreaking and opening ceremony for its new factory in Guangzhou Science City.
In order to meet the needs of the market, Shanghai Fanuc Co., Ltd. cooperated with the Guangzhou Development Zone to build a new factory in the Science City and
established a subsidiary, Guangzhou Fanuc Robot Co., Ltd. The new company has a registered capital of 150 million yuan and the company occupies an area of The area is
close to 40,000 square meters.
The construction of the new factory means that Fanuc will form two major formations in China: Shanghai Fanuc and Guangzhou Fanuc. Guangzhou will integrate
Fanuc”s resources in the south to form a South China base that integrates robot sales, display and training. . As a core area for intelligent equipment, Guangzhou is
committed to promoting the development of the intelligent manufacturing industry. This cooperation will further promote the intelligent transformation and upgrading of the
Pearl River Delta manufacturing industry.
Comment: China has become the world”s largest industrial robot market for five consecutive years. As a major manufacturing country in the world, it is
promoting the transformation of China”s manufacturing into China”s intelligent manufacturing, and at the same time, it has given birth to a huge robot market. Against this
background, domestic and foreign robot manufacturers are making plans one after another, and Fanuc”s investment in building new factories is also fully optimistic about the
Chinese robot market. In addition, the new factory in Guangzhou will make up for Shanghai Fanuc”s shortcomings in the south and further reduce the transportation costs of products.
