South Korea's leading robotics firm Robotis Co. demonstrated an indoor delivery robot capable of autonomously operating elevators and security doors through AI motion-guidance technology and robotic arms.

Industrial automation specialist Tesollo unveiled its AI-enhanced gripper that automatically adjusts its grip based on the shape and position of target objects.

The ministry aims to achieve 80 percent localization of five core robotic components — joints, effectors, motors, control systems and sensors — by 2030.
