From Sunday to Wednesday, delegations from eight countries, including The Gambia, Cote d'Ivoire, Guinea, Laos and Austria, visited ports, residential communities, schools, museums and markets across Tianjin, gaining an in-depth understanding that people's happy lives constitute the paramount human right.
During their visit to Galileo (Tianjin) Technology Co, they toured its intelligent robot production line. Many picked up control joysticks to operate the robots and execute a variety of movements in person.

Youssouf Ismael Mmadi, a human rights delegate of the Ministry of Justice from the Comoros, who was on his second trip to China, greatly enjoyed the experience. He said that the visit would stay etched in his memory and he would share what he had witnessed back home.
Li Muzijun, a sales manager at Galileo (Tianjin) Technology Co, said the company will focus on embodied intelligence in its next-stage development, with key product lines including bionic quadruped robots, wheel-legged robots and humanoid robots.

The firm will independently develop core joints, explosion-proof technologies and AI algorithms to consolidate China's self-developed technological moat. It will also accelerate the deployment of its products in high-risk scenarios such as power systems, railways, the chemical industry and emergency rescue services. Robot dogs can take over dangerous and strenuous manual work for humans, lowering safety hazards and improving operational efficiency.
"Going forward, we will leverage Tianjin's industrial strengths to drive coordinated development of the industrial chain and upstream and downstream partners. We will build benchmark projects in the domestic market while tapping into overseas orders at the same time," he said.
"We also plan to expand our business to people's livelihood scenarios, developing home companion robots and intelligent assistants. Our robotic technologies will deliver tangible convenience to production activities and safeguard workplace safety," Li added.
