The 2025 World AI Conference and High-level Meeting on Global AI Governance took place in Shanghai from July 26 to 28. The event brought together pioneering technologies and innovators from around the world, fostering a dynamic arena for global AI collaboration.

Yangpu district made a strong impression at this year's conference, showcasing its local AI leaders and their latest innovations across various fields, such as robotics, digital healthcare, cloud infrastructure, and assistive technologies.

Here are the key highlights from Yangpu's tech showcase:

Agora Conversational AI Engine

Agora, a real-time cloud communication company, unveiled its high-performance AI engine with ultra-low latency and robust noise suppression. Its proprietary Selective Attention Lock filters out 95 percent of background noise, while the Smart Interruption function responds in just 340 milliseconds. The engine is compatible with mainstream large language models and TTS (Text-to-Speech) services, enabling rapid deployment across scenarios.

Zhida FA Series autonomous charging robot

Shanghai Zhida Technology, a green energy and EV charging company, presented its FA series robots tailored for both home and commercial use, particularly in Autonomous Valet Parking environments. Each robotic arm features 360-degree joint rotation, allowing for precise insertion and removal of charging plugs. The robots can navigate parking lots to serve multiple vehicles simultaneously.

Lingzhiyu Feiying AI digital human

Developed by Shanghai Lingzhiyu Technology, this platform enables users to generate ultra-realistic digital avatars by simply uploading five seconds of video and 15 seconds of audio, with no additional customization fees. The avatars exhibit lifelike facial expressions and are suitable for both static and interactive content creation.

ULSrobotics VIATRIX hip-assist exoskeleton robot

ULSrobotics showcased its VIATRIX exoskeleton robot designed to enhance mobility. Featuring a floating hip-joint structure and AI gait algorithms, the device reduces user energy expenditure by 30 to 40 percent and boosts leg strength by 50 percent. It also supports 24 kilometers of battery life, sports-grade compression straps, and folds down in two seconds for portability.

Zero Lab teleoperation technology & chip

Zero Lab Technologies presented its H1 Data Gloves, which use inertial motion capture to replicate human hand movements for remote operations in hazardous settings. The company also featured the ZL9NQQ1, an ultra-thin motion capture chip (measuring just 10×10×2mm) built on advanced Chiplet architecture, making it ideal for integration into wearable devices.

Kelikemo Copilot rehabilitation walking-assist robot

Kelikemo unveiled Copilot, China's first patient-transport and rehabilitation robot deployed in hospitals and recovery centers. It employs multi-sensor fusion to perform precise SLAM, large-area environmental awareness, and agile obstacle avoidance, helping to alleviate staffing pressures.

Qingkan smart orthopedic rehabilitation system

Qingkan Tech showcased its smart rehabilitation system that integrates wearable sensors, a dual-interface app for doctors and patients, and a cloud-based AI engine. The system precisely tracks joint movement and provides intelligent rehabilitation planning for patients undergoing post-operative or conservative orthopedic treatment. Its AI engine utilizes a multi-agent architecture supported by a traceable knowledge graph.

Jisheng Tech's AI sign language model, Silvia

Jisheng Tech introduced Silvia, the world's first AI-powered real-time sign language translation system. It can accurately convert speech into multiple sign languages, such as SgSL (Singapore Sign Language), ASL (American Sign Language), and CSL (Chinese Sign Language), using precise motion modeling and hand keypoint tracking for international communication support.

Robkoo Clarii mini true-sampling digital wind instrument

Robkoo, a pioneer in music tech, presented Clarii Mini, a lightweight digital wind instrument powered by a true-sampling engine and motion-sensing interaction. It features adjustable finger rests, real-time tone expansion through a companion app, and robust community engagement, bridging the gap between cutting-edge tech and music culture. This is Robkoo's second appearance at WAIC.

In addition to these featured products, the booth also included innovations from A-Chip Technology, Best Covered, and DaoCloud, reflecting Yangpu's thriving AI and digital ecosystem.
