The automotive supply chain provides fertile ground for the development of robots.

Automobile manufacturing and robotics research and development share a natural common origin. Sensor technologies, control systems, and algorithms for target recognition and path planning in the automotive manufacturing field provide important technological references for the development of humanoid robots. Furthermore, automotive parts manufacturers have significant advantages in cost reduction through economies of scale and quality control, giving automakers a significant first-mover advantage in the research and manufacturing of humanoid robots.
