August 19–23, 2026: the World Robot Conference (WRC 2026) & World Robot Exhibition in Beijing's E-Town.

300 exhibitors, over 200 new products, participants front 26 countries, forums, everybody who has a say in this business was there.

I was disappointed.

I was hoping to be able to say Hi robot, check the weather and bring me sunglasses if it's sunny and umbrella if it rains.

Nothing even close to that was to be seen. After checking dozens of live demos I can safely confirm that the AI integration is missing and the UI voice interface is lagging.

Human faces are getting better, but not perfect yet:

Keept going guys and keep an eye on those nasty Americans. Elon Musk is watching you.
