6-legged guide robot developed at Shanghai Jiao Tong University helps visually impaired navigate, while scientists in Xinjiang grow rice in the desert using advanced greenhouse tech, cutting growth cycle by half.

A six-legged guide robot developed by Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China, helps visually impaired individuals navigate autonomously, dynamically avoid obstacles, and recognize traffic lights. Meanwhile, scientists in Xinjiang, China, are using advanced greenhouse technologies to grow rice in the desert, nearly halving the growth cycle, allowing for a two-month harvest. Agricultural scientists from 15 countries and international organizations met in Beijing to discuss strengthening cooperation and sustainable agriculture development through science and technology innovation.
