2026 International Conference on Intelligent Manufacturing and Embodied Intelligent Robots
The first major event of the year is upon us! The 2026 International Conference on Intelligent Manufacturing and Embodied Intelligent Robots, along with the International Academic Conference on Robot Applications and Practices, is set to take place on March 20, 2026, in the Tianjin Wuqing Development Zone.
With the rapid advancement of AI technology, intelligent manufacturing and embodied intelligent robotics have garnered unprecedented attention from various sectors of society. However, to truly realize the societal benefits of robotic technology, there is a pressing need for deep collaboration among industry, academia, and application scenarios. An efficient communication mechanism must be established to align the entire chain from research and development to industrialization and practical application.
This conference aims to accelerate the high-quality development of the intelligent manufacturing and robotics industries, promote the implementation of quality projects, enhance regional economic vitality, and strengthen brand effects. It also seeks to create a prominent summit brand image in the fields of intelligent manufacturing and robotics.
The theme of this year’s conference is “Wuqing Gathers Wisdom, Tianjin Creates New Chapters”. We invite academicians, renowned enterprises, industry experts, representatives from various associations, government officials, young scholars, developers, and industry media to engage in discussions on topics such as frontier explorations in embodied intelligent technology, development trends for 2026, and practical application scenarios.
By leveraging the technical transformation, resource integration, and international collaboration advantages of the Shanghai iRIC and Tianjin iRIC, the conference aims to provide a platform for information exchange and cooperation among enterprises, fostering collaborative development within the industry and aiding the cluster upgrade of the intelligent manufacturing and robotics sectors.
We sincerely invite you—whether you are a leading enterprise in the industry, an innovative research team, an investment institution, or a media partner—to join us in Tianjin to explore collaboration and discuss the future together! Let us unite to write a new chapter in industrial upgrading, utilizing intelligent manufacturing as our pen and embodied intelligence as our ink. (Scan the invitation QR code to register now)

About iRIC
The Shanghai Digital Public Service Station (iRIC International Joint Innovation Center for Intelligent Manufacturing and Robotics) has developed China’s first comprehensive dataset for embodied intelligent training, known as iRIC Robot World. This dataset encompasses a wide range of indoor and outdoor scenarios, various types of robotic hardware, and diverse task categories, fully supporting the research and practical application of embodied intelligence.
The data collected originates from ten typical application environments, including industrial, commercial, residential, medical, educational, municipal, agricultural, and aquatic scenarios. It includes various robotic forms such as wheeled robots, quadrupeds, humanoid robots, underwater robots, drones, medical robots, and dexterous hands.
The platform integrates multimodal perception information including vision, lidar, inertial navigation, voice semantics, and force feedback, supporting various task types such as control operations, mobility, and multimodal interactions. All data is sourced from real, complex environments, meticulously labeled and standardized, compatible with mainstream development frameworks, and aims to establish a future-oriented ecosystem for multimodal, multipurpose, and multi-form robotic perception and cognition.
Since its inception, the iRIC Joint Innovation Center has been dedicated to providing deep integration services of computing power, data, and algorithms for intelligent manufacturing and robotics enterprises. By tailoring algorithm development to meet actual business needs and regularly conducting online and offline service activities, we aim to assist ecosystem enterprises in achieving breakthroughs in key areas such as intelligent decision-making and pattern recognition.
If you have related needs in data testing or algorithm development, please feel free to contact the iRIC Joint Innovation Center’s digital service hotline at 021-69120603.
