Zhijun Finance APP learned that, according to the latest robot industry research from TrendForce, companion robots have evolved from early elderly care companionship and therapeutic design to recent human-like interaction and emotional companionship. Recently, Chinese manufacturer UBTECH released the ultra-bionic humanoid robot U1, symbolizing the official entry of such companion products into the human-like era. With the global trend of aging population, declining birth rates, and an increasing number of elderly people living alone, the demand for companion humanoid robots is rapidly rising, supported by the "companion economy". It is estimated that the market value will reach 1.1 billion US dollars by 2030.
