In the 5G+AI era, what kind of industrial future will robots usher in?

Since 2019, 5G technology has made great progress, with continuous enhancement of communication and computing power, more efficient and accurate information transmission, and stronger anti-interference ability. As the first country to seize the high point of 5G technology, China has developed 5G-related industries and their applications at lightning speed. The high degree of fit between the robotics industry and 5G technology has been highly recognized by the high-end information technology manufacturing industry.

Relevant data shows that China's robot market is booming, with an estimated scale of $83.9 billion in 2021, with industrial robots and service robots almost equally divided. With the continuous evolution of 5G technology, the robot industry is constantly developing towards higher-level application scenarios, such as remotely controlled medical robots, autonomous driving robots that can intelligently avoid obstacles on the streets, detection robots that can freely shuttle in complex geological environments, and firefighting robots that can freely come and go in special scenes such as fires...

"A variety of strange" robots have emerged in response to the social call, solving many complex and arduous operation problems and replacing a large amount of repetitive manual labor. However, being more advanced and intelligent also means that the research and development and deployment of robots require more technical support.

Efficient network speed is just the tip of the iceberg of the "power source" of robots. Lower latency, larger bandwidth, wider connections, and more powerful AI computing power are all necessary conditions for robots to become more automated and intelligent. The development of 5G+AI technology has just adapted to the "power source" required for the development of the robot industry, and has continuously broadened the development track and application scenarios of the robot industry.

As a global leading wireless communication module and solution provider, MeiG Smart's 5G modules and related solutions have always been the company's core development industry line. It has achieved many good results in the field of 5G+AI, and has also shined in the field of the Internet of Things with its high-end series of 5G high-computing smart modules SRM930. In the IoT segment of robots, MeiG Smart has already actively laid out its own technological advantages and industry resources.

5G+AI: The future of the robotics industry

5G+AI technology has affected the development of a large number of industries, and the robotics industry is one of them. First of all, the low latency, high speed, large bandwidth, and wide connection characteristics of 5G technology have broken through many pain points of robots in the 4G era, such as limited working range, limited business coverage, limited service provision, and high operation and maintenance costs. It has given robots a great range of activities and has also promoted the business applications of robots to thousands of households, acting on families, logistics, factories, inspections, medical care, fire protection, and other aspects. Not only that, 5G provides robots with greater computing power and more storage space, which can meet a variety of automation functions such as robot map construction and drawing, automatic path planning, and object data recognition. Taking warehouse AGV as an example, under the application of 5G+AI technology, AGV does not need to lay fixed traction facilities such as tracks in the activity area, and can also operate normally without human monitoring, intelligently detect and identify obstacles, and actively stop and detour.
Secondly, the birth and development of AI technology is the core element that truly promotes the intelligentization of robots. From the algorithm level, AI deep learning algorithms can solve problems such as language, logical reasoning, and learning, and will provide robots with the possibility of gaining autonomous consciousness, thereby enhancing the robot's autonomous perception ability. The emergence of artificial intelligence has first improved the human experience of using robots. In the past, robots only had simple appearances and unilateral button-type command control. After the emergence of artificial intelligence, the robot control has transitioned to a control mode based on voice and touch screen, and the human-machine interaction has become more complete, more convenient, and more friendly. With the development of Moore's Law, AI computing power continues to increase, and the intelligence of robots has deepened vertically. At present, there are already many cases in the world where intelligent robots have defeated humans in a single field. Among them, the event of Alpha Go defeating human professional Go players became popular all over the country in 2017. We can foresee that the addition of artificial intelligence will bring a better future for robot intelligence.

The fierce collision between Meige Intelligence and robots

MeiG Smart's products are aimed at IoT customers in various industries. As one of the representatives of cutting-edge technologies in the IoT industry, the future trend of robots is highly consistent with the development direction of MeiG Smart's IoT industry. At present, the 5G series product line is the top priority of MeiG Smart's development, which can provide good help for building intelligent robots.

1. More convenient and smarter: Under the wave of 5G+AI technology, robots are truly developing towards more and more flexible artificial intelligence robots. MeiG Intelligent 5G high-computing intelligent module SRM930 provides a comprehensive computing power of more than 14Tops. It will give robots voice semantics, cognitive learning, understanding and analysis capabilities, and can prompt robots to self-judge and deeply search for external information received, achieving the effect of deep learning and intelligent response. 2. Faster and more accurate: As robots gradually serve human society and expand to every corner of society and family on a large scale, personalization and responsiveness have become another necessary condition for robot intelligence. MeiG Intelligent 5G high-computing intelligent module SRM930 is developed based on Qualcomm 5G SoC QCM6490 platform, supports 5G NR Sub-6Ghz, supports NSA and SA, and will provide robots with comprehensive low-latency, high-speed network connections, further expanding the application scope of robots. 3. More comprehensive and more extensive: At present, the market penetration rate of robots is getting higher and higher. Thanks to the deep cultivation in the Internet of Things industry and the continuous exploration of new scenarios and new applications, MeiG Intelligent 5G high-computing power intelligent module SRM930 and related solutions are applied to various robot industries, covering various fields of industry, medical care, service industry, and life. For example, sweeping robots, catering service robots, drones, etc. will become "pediatrics" in the robot industry and help humans move towards a better life. With the further development of 5G+AI technology, the future of robots that are fully autonomous, intelligent, and even have emotional cognition may be mapped into reality, and fully penetrate into human life and become a part of daily life. MeiG Intelligent will continue to pay attention to the development of the robot industry, coordinate social progress, and move towards the future of high-end robots!
