Recently, the Shenzhen Science and Technology Innovation Bureau released the "Shenzhen Embodied Intelligent Robot Technology Innovation and Industrial Development Action Plan (2025-2027)", which marks a major breakthrough in Shenzhen in the field of intelligent robots. The core goal of the plan is to promote the comprehensive development of embodied intelligent technology, build embodied intelligent bases and large models in vertical fields, and lay a solid foundation for the future of the intelligent robot industry.
The action plan particularly emphasizes the development of multimodal input and output technologies based on world models and vision-tactile-language-action (VTLA). This technology will enable embodied intelligent models to have interactive, predict and decision-making capabilities, enable long-sequence inference (COT) and achieve autonomous learning. This ability improvement will enable intelligent robots to handle complex tasks in different scenarios and meet diverse application needs, thereby promoting the widespread application of intelligent robot technology.
In terms of specific implementation, Shenzhen will develop targeted vertical application models around key application scenarios such as medical care, logistics, and manufacturing. These models will greatly improve the efficiency and accuracy of various fields and promote the practical application of intelligent robot technology. In addition, the action plan also proposes to establish a complete training and reasoning technology system to support large-scale model development and application and ensure Shenzhen’s leading position in intelligent robot technology innovation.
It is worth mentioning that the plan also involves the research and development and innovation of AI chips. Shenzhen will concentrate its efforts on conquering the architecture of new AI chips, including neural network processor instruction sets, storage and computing integrated computing architecture, etc. The breakthroughs in these technologies will provide strong hardware support for the application of embodied intelligence, further promote the rapid development of the robot field, and promote the widespread application and popularization of intelligent robot technology.
Overall, this action plan not only points out the direction for Shenzhen’s intelligent robot industry, but also provides useful experience reference for technological innovation across the country. While promoting embodied intelligent technology, Shenzhen will further increase investment and research in related fields, strive to occupy a favorable position in future technological competition, and make important contributions to the development of global intelligent robot technology.
