The 2022 Science and Technology Award Ceremony of the Chinese Association of Automation (CAA) was recently held in Nansha, Guangzhou.
The project “Key Technologies and Applications of Human-Machine Collaborative Perception and Control for Health Services,” led by the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), won the second prize of the CAA’s Science and Technology Progress Award.
Chenglong FU, Professor of the Department of Mechanical and Energy Engineering at SUSTech, was the first person to complete the project.
The project “Key Technologies and Applications of Human-Machine Collaborative Perception and Control for Health Services” bought together three leading enterprises and research institutes in related fields: Shenzhen Hanwei Intelligent Medical Technology Co., Ltd., Institute of Automation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Guangdong Kate Precision Machinery Co., Ltd.
With the cooperation of multiple groups, they provided their advantages in their respective fields and promoted the key technological breakthroughs and industrial applications of the project.
Focusing on national health issues, the project developed health service robots with fully autonomous operations, innovatively solving problems in human-machine interaction such as human-machine safety, autonomous perception and trajectory planning, and a self-adaptive fitting function, promoting the development of health service robots.
The CAA is one of the earliest state-level academic mass organizations in China. It was established under the initiative of Xuesen QIAN, Shangxian SHEN, Shimo ZHONG, Yuanjiu LU, Shijun LANG, and other predecessors of China’s automation industry.
The Science and Technology Progress Award mainly rewards scientific and technological workers that have made contributions in the process of technological research, technological development, technological innovation, promotion and application of advanced scientific and technological achievements, promotion of high-tech industrialization, and completion of major scientific and technological projects and plans in the field of automation. In 2022, a total of seven first prizes and 25 second prizes were awarded.
