Intelligent robots gather in Beijing

Meet "Yao Ming" who's almost as good a shot as his basketball namesake. He's come with friends, such as Space Robot who likes clearing up space junk. And then there's medical robot "Da Vinci," who's making his first appearance. They've all come together at the 2017 World Robot Conference in the Chinese capital for five days of AI and Robot themed exhibitions from makers around the globe. The World Robot Conference 2017 runs from August 23 to 27, with the theme "Win-Win Collaborative Innovation, Toward the Building of an Intelligent Society".
