**Smart Life Solutions Address an Aging and Globalized Market**

A highlight of this section is the focus on smart living, which brings together 
smart solutions designed to support healthier, safer, and more independent lifestyles.

For example, wearable devices and continuous glucose monitoring systems enable convenient
tracking of key health indicators such as heart rate and blood glucose levels. Meanwhile,
wearable exoskeletons and other AI-powered devices support mobility training and
functional recovery. For home and elderly care, companion robots, electric nursing
beds and home-use hyperbaric oxygen chambers, offer a combination of daily care,
wellness support and lifestyle assistance. All these solutions highlight a growing
shift toward technology-enabled living, where health management, personal care, 
and independent living are becoming more accessible and connected.

**Service Robots Demonstrate Expanding Real-World Applications**

The Service Robot Zone remains one of the fair’s most popular attractions in this
edition.

Among the crowd favorites is a humanoid robot standing roughly 70–80 centimeters
tall. With its expressive movements and playful appearance, the robot draws constant
attention as it dances, approaches visitors and occasionally performs flips to the
delight of onlookers. Behind the product is a company that has overcome key challenges
in compact joint modules and modular humanoid robot development. Its independently
developed high-power-density joints deliver remarkable agility and explosive movement,
while modular architecture provides flexibility for a wide range of future applications.

More broadly, the Service Robot Zone features exhibits spanning a wide range of 
application areas, including embodied intelligence, specialized operations, urban
services, and smart living. Full-size humanoid robots, dexterous hands with multimodal
sensing capabilities and wheeled robots highlight the latest advances in artificial
intelligence, perception technologies and motion control. For demanding industrial
and emergency environments, exhibitors are presenting robotic inspection systems,
live-line maintenance robots and underwater propulsion robots designed to improve
safety and operational efficiency.

The commercial services sector is also well represented through reception robots,
façade-cleaning robots and fully automated coffee kiosks, while everyday life applications
include wearable exoskeletons, robotic lawn mowers and educational robots for home
use. Together, these exhibits demonstrate how China’s robotics industry is accelerating
its transition from technological innovation to large-scale commercialization.

As the 140th Canton Fair gets underway, the showcased innovations highlight China’s
growing strength in advanced manufacturing, turning cutting-edge technologies into
practical, market-ready solutions for global customers.
