Bionic Robotics Innovations Unveiled at the 2026 World Robotics Conference

On August 20, the parallel forum 'Bionic Empowerment: Intelligent Creation of the Future' was held at the 2026 World Robotics Conference in Beijing. Organized by the International Society of Bionic Engineering, the Changchun Trade Promotion Association, and the Jilin Province Bionic Robotics Manufacturing Innovation Center, the event attracted over 300 experts and representatives from industry and venture capital. The highlight of the forum was the presentation by Professor Ren Lei, founder of Yuequan Bionics and a national expert, who unveiled three self-developed product lines: the Y-Hand series dexterous hands, YQ Motors series motors, and YQ Muscles artificial muscle modules. These products embody a complete bionic logic, with YQ Motors offering high power density and low noise across eight series, while YQ Muscles replicate human skeletal muscle biomechanics for safe and compliant power solutions. Additionally, two significant agreements were signed during the forum, indicating Yuequan Bionics' ambitions for industrialization. The partnership with Fuwei Co., a listed company in the automotive parts sector, signals traditional industry capital's entry into the bionic intelligence field. Their collaboration aims to address automation challenges in complex environments, showcasing the practical application of bionic technology in real-world industrial settings.
