China's NDRC Accelerates Embodied Intelligence Application in Manufacturing and Healthcare
pstAsiatech · x · 2026-09-01
China's National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) emphasized the need for orderly development in the robotics industry. The plan focuses on two main areas: establishing embodied intelligence training grounds to improve data, models, and standards (solving data scarcity), and building national AI application pilot bases. These initiatives aim to accelerate deployment in manufacturing, healthcare, and consumer sectors, helping SMEs bridge the gap from prototype to mass production.
