More than 80 percent of manufacturing operations in Guangzhou, capital of Guangdong province, will be using industrial robots and related "intelligent" technologies by 2020, according to official projections.
The city's government has decided to expand investment in such technologies in the next few years, based on a report prepared by the Guangzhou commission of trade and economy.
The standing committee of the Guangzhou municipal government authorized the proposals given in the report on Monday, giving the go-ahead for further investment in the sector.
