                            The world's first three-duct wearable single-person aircraft made its first successful flight in Hangzhou
                        
                            The first wearable single-person aircraft based on a three-duct configuration in China successfully made its maiden flight in Hangzhou. Developed by Hangzhou Zhiyuan Research Institute, the aircraft has a range of ≥8km, a maximum flight altitude of ≥1km, a flight time of ≥20min, and a maximum speed of ≥60km/h. Tian Congling, a senior engineer at Hangzhou Zhiyuan Research Institute, introduced that it uses ducted power and rudder fusion control, which is efficient and reliable. In terms of human-computer interaction, the aircraft can be used with AR helmets and joystick operations to achieve intelligent interaction, and can free both hands in the automatic driving state to achieve high-altitude operations. From the application point of view, it can be used in scenarios such as emergency rescue, flight experience, and low-altitude economic aerial operations.

                            Shanghai Economic and Information Technology Commission: Will promote the transformation of vehicle companies and strengthen innovative applications such as intelligent driving big models
                        
                            The 2025 Yangtze River Delta New Energy Vehicle Industry Chain and Supply Chain Innovation Cooperation Conference, "A New Chapter of Win-win Future with Intelligent Chain", was held at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) on April 25. Han Dadong, Second-level Inspector of the Shanghai Economic and Information Technology Commission and Director of the Automobile Industry Department, said in his speech at the meeting that the automobile industry is one of Shanghai's key industries. In the current window period and opportunity period of global automobile industry transformation and adjustment, Shanghai has made every effort to solve the pain points and bottlenecks of the transformation and upgrading of the automobile industry, accelerate the creation of a world-class automobile industry center, and promote the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta. In recent years, it has achieved certain results. Han Dadong emphasized that at present, the global automobile competition landscape is developing towards electrification, intelligence, and AI, and the trend of parts integration, integration, and lightweight is obvious. Combined with geopolitical influences such as international trade frictions and tariff barriers, the automobile industry chain is facing reshaping and transformation. In order to accelerate the competitiveness of the entire automobile industry chain in the Yangtze River Delta region, Shanghai will promote the reform and transformation of vehicle manufacturers, strengthen the application of innovative technologies such as intelligent driving large models, accelerate the production and listing of new models such as Zhiji, Audi, and Shangjie, and promote the coordinated development of the upstream and downstream of the Yangtze River Delta region and the national automobile industry chain.

                            Humanoid robots become the new favorite at auto shows, and the two major industrial chains are intertwined
                        
                            At the 2025 Shanghai Auto Show, humanoid robots have a strong presence. The products of Yushu Technology and Zhiyuan Robotics have become "non-staff employees" of many car companies and battery companies, acting as shopping guides and "car models" on site; Xiaopeng Motors and Chery Group brought their self-developed humanoid robots to the show, acting as "partners" for their car products. In this regard, industry chain insiders analyzed that: on the one hand, whether it is the production end or the sales end, car companies have scenarios suitable for the implementation of humanoid robots, and are "big customers" of humanoid robot manufacturers; on the other hand, the artificial intelligence technology required for automobile hardware manufacturing and intelligent driving is highly overlapped with the software and hardware of humanoid robots, and car companies can be said to have their own "entry tickets" when making humanoid robots.
