Just another reminder why China is going to win and it may be more rapid and one-sided than we imagined. The world will see China innovate with robots for the biggest event at the Winter Olympics. It will be a showcase of what China has to offer, a HUGE win for Xi and his Party, fresh off the heels of walking into HK and expanding accordingly.
Robots just showed what they got at a 2022 Winter Olympics test event for ice hockey. From making coffee to offering contactless deliveries, they made the games and the preparation work much easier.
The test event "Experience Beijing" was held between Nov. 7 and 10 at Beijing's Wukesong Sports Center, also known as the Cadillac Center, where some of the Olympic ice hockey games will take place in February the next year. The test event was joined by four men's ice hockey teams in Beijing.
During the event, a robot was employed as a coffee barista at the Wukesong Sports Center. It only took four minutes for the robot to make a cup of pour over coffee.
"The robot has two 6-axis robotic arms and it can make different types of coffee. Its operation stability enables it to ensure the same quality and taste for every cup of coffee it makes," said Wei Qing, technical manager of the Wukesong Sports Center.
To make the test event free from possible COVID-19 risks, the organizers of it divided the Wukesong Sports Center into two parts - an inner section and an outer section, and the two sections were isolated from each other. Technical materials, general materials, documents and personal items needed by the staff in the inner section were transported by logistics robots and smart delivery and collection cabins, in a contactless manner.
There was also a buffer zone between the two sections, and that was where the logistics robots worked. Zhang Fan, logistics manager of the Wukesong Sports Center, said that each of the logistics robots was able to carry 30 to 300 kilograms of cargos, and they could deliver the cargos within the venue without any contact to the senders and receivers.
