On August 21, the 2024 World Robot Conference commenced in Beijing. This three-day event featured a main forum, 26 specialized sessions, and a 50,000-square-meter exhibition area, providing a comprehensive international platform for exchange and cooperation in robotics. Over 400 leading scientists, representatives from international organizations, academicians, and distinguished entrepreneurs attended.
As an artificial intelligence unicorn , SmartMore was also invited to this event. Its founder and chairman, Professor Jia Jiaya, delivered a keynote speech during the first chapter of the main forum, titled “Industrial Development.”
In his speech, Professor Jia emphasized, "Embodied intelligence represents a significant integration of technological and industrial innovation. As AI advances, embodied intelligence products such as robotic arms will increasingly be deployed in real smart manufacturing scenarios."
Professor Jia also shared with the conference audience the latest achievements of SmartMore in the field of industrial large-scale models. In November 2023, SmartMore unveiled IndustryGPT, the world’s first industrial multimodal large model for high-end manufacturing,which fills a significant gap in the industry.
Since its launch, IndustryGPT has demonstrated excellent data processing and self-learning capabilities across various manufacturing stages and achieved commercial applications in the industrial field ahead of its competitors.
In June 2024, SmartMore launched IndustryGPT 2.0. The 2.0 version collaborates with the SmartMore Industrial Cloud Platform (SMore ViMo) to streamline the processes of ViMo model training and parameter adjustment that previously required expert knowledge. Now, users can train models and select algorithms by using everyday language and instructions. The multimodal capabilities of IndustryGPT 2.0 seamlessly integrate natural language processing, image analysis, and generation, making the interactions more intuitive, communication more direct, and responses more efficient.Furthermore,IndustryGPT 2.0 can achieve autonomous control of the robotic arm and perform complex tasks without pre-programmed rules. Professor Jia stated, "By propelling mechanical motion with IndustryGPT, we are seamlessly connecting the digital and physical worlds, making operations more convenient, efficient, and precise. IndustryGPT will continue to evolve into an intelligent agent capable of autonomous control and collaboration, becoming the true brain of future robots."
SmartMore has established a comprehensive ecosystem of intelligent manufacturing software and hardware products, with a focus on core AI technologies and industrial innovation. In addition to IndustryGPT and ViMo, SmartMore has developed a range of smart sensors and integrated devices that extend intelligent manufacturing capabilities across the entire production chain, from design to production, management, and service. This technology has been successfully applied in industries such as automotive, new energy, consumer electronics, precision manufacturing, food, and pharmaceuticals.
