MEET ALPHA 2


"Hello Ryan Groy Jersey , Alpha, I'm back."


"Hello. Welcome home," says Alpha 2, while automatically switching on the lights, air-conditioner and television.


Voice-controlled humanoid butler Alpha 2 has been charming crowds at the ongoing 2017 World Robot Conference in Beijing.


Created by Chinese firm UBTech Robotics, Alpha 2 is able to do anything from housework and finding weather reports to dancing and reading children their bedtime stories.


"Robots are important in providing companionship and service at home Marcus Murphy Jersey ," says Li Zhen, general manager with UBTech's brand department. "For the elderly who find it difficult to fetch a remote control or switch on the air-conditioner, these things can be done by robots."


Once pure fantasy, intelligent machines are becoming increasingly common. In the future, family-friendly Alpha 2 will have even more functions.


DELIVERY ROBOTS


In another booth at the exhibition hall, Chinese e-commerce platform JD is displaying its robot courier and drone. If used widely in the future Corey Bojorquez Jersey , it will reduce costs and raise efficiency in the logistics sector.


The company uses a white robot courier, weighing around 200 kg, in at least four universities, according to Zhang Zhitong, senior manager with JD's PR department.


The robot courier is capable of avoiding obstacles and mainly used in urban areas. For remote rural areas, JD is developing drones that can deliver packages by passing through mountains Robert Foster Jersey , rivers and forests.


Zhang says that dozens of drones are being used in the city of Xi'an in Shaanxi Province, and the city of Suqian in Jiangsu Province. Last month alone, more than 3,000 orders were delivered by drone in Suqian.


China's logistics costs accounted for 14.9 percent of GDP in 2016.

Bestic costs around 4,000 euros overseas, but its price in China has not yet been decided Shaq Lawson Jersey , says Lu Tonghua, product manager with Zhongrui Funing Robotics Technology (Beijing), whose parent company is an agent and shareholder of Camanio Care.


Lu says the robot will be adjusted to Chinese eating habits in the future. "For example, Chinese elderly like to eat soup or noodles. A spoon alone is not enough."


He says that more than ten nursing homes have shown a willingness to purchase the robot.


If robots that can feed and wash people are not so surprising, what if you doctor was even a robot? Well, if surgical robot system Da Vinci is anything to go by Dion Dawkins Jersey , robot doctors might not be so
