Robot competition , Pepper & NAO second to none! In this year's RoboCup World Robot Competition China Division, Pepper & NAO shines as the standard platform group. The participating team members have gained a lot in the process. Not only are the programming technology more sophisticated, but they also feel a different state of mind during the competition and are more mature in dealing with people.
In addition, in July 2020, SoftBank Robot held a hackathon in World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) . With the support of SoftBank robot's easy-to-use development tools, rich online training videos and documents, the participating team has achieved rapid development of application value from zero to one from scratch, fully exerting the spirit of hackers, insisting on the pursuit of innovation and implementation practice, and ultimately allowing the robot to better serve people.
In addition to its own development, SoftBank robots pursue common progress.
