The Shanghai Robotics R&D and Transformation Platform was also launched at the meeting as part of the initial planning for Shanghai to become a science and innovation center with global influence.
Supported by the Shanghai Science and Technology Commission, the platform aims to build an intelligent humanoid robot platform.
Furthermore, the Changfeng Algorithm Valley and a smart vehicle computing alliance were established in Putuo.
Putuo has rich resources in science and technology and a strong industrial base, according to Jiang Dongdong, the district's Party Secretary.
