深圳无人机展览凸显无人机行业火爆
Hundreds of civilian drones were displayed at the 2018 World Drone Congress and the Third Shenzhen International UAV EXPO 2018 which started Friday in Shenzhen.
上周五在深圳开办的2018世界无人机大会和第三届深圳国际无人机博览会上，展出了数百架民用无人机。
The three-day event showed how unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), especially those powered by artificial intelligence (AI), are going to change people's lives.
A mini drone can take selfies and fold into a cellphone case. Its manufacturer said it can hover in the air for up to four minutes at five meters.
At another corner, a group of colorfully lit drones gave a display of synchronized flying. They were the products of Shenzhen HighGreat Innovation Technology Development Co., Ltd. According to its CEO Gao Jianmin, they are designed for purposes like weddings and other ceremonies and have been well-received by the market.
"In the open air, they can form the shape of a dolphin, a sea gull or a heart. The drones can deliver rings and flower bouquets," said Gao.
Drones are increasingly used in the everyday life, beyond consumer level.
Chinese drone companies are emerging as strong competitors in fields like precision agriculture, public security, power line inspection, mapping, logistics, fire fighting and emergency rescue, said Yang Jincai, chairman of Shenzhen UAV Industry Association.
"The civilian drone industry is developing fast," Yang said.
