Jinhua is an important power tool production area in China. This entry uses dual robots to work together to reproduce manual effort, speed and trajectory. The test efficiency is more than 25% higher than that of traditional equipment. It has been tried out under real working conditions by relevant companies.

Dai Xinping, leader of the Jinhua Vocational and Technical University team and dean of the School of Intelligent Manufacturing of the school, said in an interview with a reporter from China News Network after the game that the participating projects originated from industrial working condition testing problems. The teachers and students of the team jointly tackled key issues such as large database construction, intelligent body creation, and robot simulation manual testing. They worked hard to solve problems such as single data collection from traditional testing equipment and difficulty in replicating the actual operations of workers.

The scale of this competition has reached a new high, covering 78 countries on five continents, with a total of 9,391 teams and 36,000 players participating.
