Array of technologies debut at high-tech fair

A manned eVTOL aircraft makes its debut at the 26th High-Tech Fair in Shenzhen, drawing crowds of onlookers. The fair underscores a commitment to developing technologies that not only push the boundaries of innovation but also profoundly improve everyday life, according to Zhang Lin, director of the Shenzhen Science, Technology, and Innovation Bureau. "The biggest change we've noticed this year is that people's attention has shifted more from four-legged robotic dogs to bipedal robots," said Lin Zhilong, the South China sales director of Hangzhou Yushu Technology, one of the earliest producers of quadruped robots in the world. In addition to robotic technologies, the fair has also spotlighted a deeper integration between education, scientific research, and industry in China, showcasing how the nation is fostering innovation across multiple sectors. By presenting an impressive lineup of 69 groundbreaking technological achievements, Shenzhen University of Advanced Technology, the newest university inaugurated in the city this year, showed its latest advancements in key areas such as cell genetics, biomedicine, computing chips, and advanced energy materials, including a pioneering drug for organ failure and new PET imaging biomarkers for early detection of Parkinson's disease and autism.
