Thoughts turned into reality, putting on a brain-computer interface hat to command a robotic arm to grab a water cup.

Today, the 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference and High-Level Meeting on Global Artificial Intelligence Governance opened in Shanghai. Some companies brought two global debut technologies: a brain-controlled robot training platform and a CNC data collection solution. A CCTV financial reporter saw in the exhibition hall a research and development personnel wearing a brainwave cap, with eyes fixed on a water cup in front of them. Without needing to move a hand or speak, the mechanical arm next to them seemed to understand their thoughts and accurately picked up the water cup and handed it over. The company's leader explained that the brainwave cap real-time collects signals, algorithms analyze movement intentions, and commands are then issued promptly. Next, they will promote the deep integration of brainwave signals and AI to further expand the control capabilities of embodied intelligence.
