Conference News | Agenda First Release: Decoding the Future Vision of Collaborative Evolution between Smart Sensing and Robotics

When robots take the first step towards commercialization and traditional sensors usher in a new intelligent era, the symbiotic evolution of smart sensing and robotics is reconstructing the industrial landscape. From August 27 to 28, 2025, at the Kempinski Hotel Shenzhen, the "2025 Smart Sensor Asia·Robotics" conference will gather pioneers from industry, academia, and research institutions. With a high-density two-day agenda, it will uncover the underlying logic of technological iteration and scenario implementation.

1. Core Topics Preview: Driven by Both Policies and Technologies

The morning of the first day of the conference will start with "Driven by Both Policy Orientation and Market Demand", analyzing the growth opportunities of the smart sensor industry under the wave of new infrastructure and AI large models. It is worth noting that the topic "Theoretical Innovation and Cutting-Edge Technological Breakthroughs in Multimodal Joint Perception" will deeply explore how multimodal perception breaks the limitations of traditional single-modal from a theoretical perspective and creates a new paradigm of machine cognition. At the same time, the special session "Perception Solutions for the Whole Body of Humanoid Robots" will compare the differences in commercialization paths between traditional sensing and bionic sensing, and analyze their different development strategies and prospects in terms of cost control, market acceptance, and expansion of application scenarios.

2. Highlights of Technological Breakthroughs: From Single Sensing to Multimodal Fusion

The agenda in the afternoon of the first day can be called a "Sensor Technology Expo": the combination of MEMS micro-displacement sensors and wireless energy supply technology will demonstrate the self-power supply solution for millimeter-level sensing units; the fusion technology of neuromorphic vision sensors and HDR imaging directly addresses the navigation pain points of robots in strong/dim light environments. The most disruptive one is the "Bionic Olfactory Sensor" special session. The bio-hybrid sensor based on insect olfactory receptors has achieved accurate identification of flammable and explosive gases at the 0.1ppm level, and the application cases of this technology in fire rescue robots will be disclosed for the first time.

3. Focus of Industrial Implementation: From Laboratory to Commercial Closed Loop

The agenda on the second day focuses on scenario implementation in depth: anti-interference algorithms of torque sensors in robot joint control, selection logic of capacitive/inductive sensing in different industrial scenarios, large-area preparation processes of stretchable electronic skin - these engineering problems known as "bottlenecks" in the industry will have leading enterprises share their mass production experience. In particular, the "RaaS (Robot as a Service)" special session will disassemble the business model of extending from industrial welding scenarios to domestic service scenarios, and reveal the supply chain reconstruction logic behind the 30% reduction in sensor costs.

4. Focus of Round-table Discussions: Breaking Through the Perception Ceiling and Human-Machine Integration

Two special round-table conferences directly address the soul-searching questions of the industry: the topic of "Perception Ceiling" on the first day will debate the fusion limit of lidar and visual sensing, and explore the perception boundary of robot autonomous decision-making; the special session "Flexible Sensors Make Robots Understand Humans Better" on the second day will analyze how collaborative robots achieve "safe touch" from the dimensions of tactile array design and human-machine interaction protocols, which is exactly the core (bottleneck) in the commercialization of medical care robots and elderly service robots.

From the theoretical breakthrough of multimodal perception to the application of bionic sensors, from the cost reduction strategy of the supply chain to the new direction of human-machine integration, the intelligent sensor industry is ushering in a golden period of resonance between policies and technologies! This conference is full of cutting-edge industry achievements. What's more worth looking forward to is that it is not only a technology display platform but also an industrial hub connecting sensor manufacturers, robot integrators, and end-users.
