World's first medical rescue drone debuts in China

"Weighing 600 kg with a 300-kg payload, this drone integrates autonomous flight modes — such as waypoint navigation and hovering — with remote ground control, enabling rapid deployment in disasters and epidemics," said Huang. "By fusing medical expertise with embodied intelligence, we've created a system that bridges search and rescue operations, significantly enhancing emergency medical capabilities in China and beyond."

The company jointly developed the drone with the Chinese Academy of Sciences and industry partners.

Meanwhile, at this week's China International Medical Equipment Fair, the company showcased its latest emergency (transfer) robots developed with partners like DEEP Robotics.
