In recent years, robots have already become one of the hottest smart interconnected devices. The relevant data shows that by 2025, the world robot market will be as high as 66.9 billion U.S. dollars. It can be seen that the robot industry has huge market potential. However, the robot industry is an industry with diverse products and high intelligence requirements. Its technical aspects involve cloud-to-end computing, artificial intelligence technologies, and environmental awareness technologies. Some of these technologies have matured but some still await further improvement. Therefore, there is still some distance between the robotic industry and the complete industrialization. 
As an Intel company that has now transformed into a high-tech company, it is willing to help the robot industry achieve further development. As a first step in achieving this vision, Intel will focus on the technological innovation capabilities of the robotics industry. In order to further enhance the technological innovation capability of the robot industry, it is particularly important to help the innovation team and cultivate the robot development talents. Recently, the Intel Robot Innovation Center (Shanghai) officially opened, marking the official completion of Intel's first robotic innovation center. It is understood that after the completion of the center, Intel will provide all-round support for the innovation team from three aspects: technological innovation, market acceleration and professional operation.
Through interviews with reporters, the Intel Robot Innovation Center has three main functions: First, exchange and display. Simply put, it is to provide a platform for good products, projects, and companies in the robot industry to show themselves and communicate with other partners in the industry. Second, a technology exchange center. This point is an extension of the previous point. Through the exchange of products, further technical exchanges will be formed, and then the spark of technological innovation will be impacted from the exchange. Third, innovation will accelerate. The Innovation Center itself can also provide accelerator functions, which can be used to accelerate the development of a series of accelerated services such as investment for some good projects and teams.
Li Desheng, general manager of Intel’s China Strategic Cooperation and Innovation Business Unit, stated that “based on technological innovation and supported by ecological cooperation, the Intel Robot Innovation Center is a powerful promoter of the development of China’s robotics industry and will further promote the development of robotic innovation ecology. Build 10 star companies in 3 years and support 100 star projects.†While communicating with the on-site roadshow innovation team, the reporter found that Intel Robot Innovation Center can provide developers and industry partners with multiple technologies platform.
For example, in the area of ​​industrial robots, the first domestic remote development platform for industrial robots on display at the scene was jointly provided by Intel and its partner Nexcom (NEXCOM). The platform enables developers to access the platform wherever they are and without having to invest in an expensive industrial robot platform, and gains support for distance learning, simulation, and development work.
In terms of serving robots, both the Intel Service Robot Reference Design Platform and the ROS-based Robot Mobile Reference Platform have been open sourced, which has further shortened the development cycle of service robot related products. It is understood that the Intel Service Robot Reference Design Platform has been used for research or teaching by 11 universities and research institutes, and has been adopted by 10 robotics companies as prototypes for rapid market introduction. In fact, Intel's support for the robot industry is not only that. The Robotics Innovation Challenge, which was jointly created by Intel, Hard Egg, Shanghai Micro Energy, and innovative eco partners, was officially launched on the unveiling ceremony.
It is understood that from December 2016 to June 2017, the Challenge will recruit innovative projects and innovative entrepreneurial teams at home and abroad, covering three categories: industrial robots, service robots, and education robots. Afterwards, 30 projects will stand out from thousands of projects and participate in the 2017 mid-summer final challenge competition. They will also receive support from different levels of the robot innovation center from technical platforms to expert guidance.
