At the 8th China International Tea Expo in Hangzhou, a robot demonstrated its skills in picking the leaves of the famous Longjing tea, Qazinform News Agency reports, citing Xinhua.
During the exhibition, a humanoid robot went to a nearby tea garden, where it learned to pick tea leaves with high precision. The demonstration showed how modern technologies can be applied in traditional industries, including tea production.
Longjing tea is considered one of the most famous varieties of green tea in China.
