All the latest innovations at the science & tech expo

Chen Ruiming and his family had a fun when trying the face identification system at the annual Jiading Science & Technology Expo.

“It’s amazing,” Chen said.

The system has two cameras to scan face and analyzes the age, sex and happiness degrees within a second. It’s so interesting that within 10 minutes more than 20 visitors queued up waiting for a try.

The expo opened at Shanghai Automobile Expo Center from August 29 to September 1.

At the annual fair, science and technology institutes showed the fruits of their research, enterprises demonstrated their newest products, experts shared their opinions while local residents flocked to experience state-of-art inventions.

The Internet of Things, digital media and automobile electronics were hot topics.

Three-dimensional printing technology was another attraction at the expo with machines busy printing various articles such as vases and toys.

Other high-tech products closely related to ordinary people’s lives also drew a lot of attentions.

An auto company from the US showed a new type of electric car, equipped with a motor system which can accelerate to 100kph in 5.8 seconds. The technology has won the Jiading’s science and technology development award.

This year, the number of projects applying for the award reached a record high of 289 invention patents, twice last year’s number. 

Of the awarded included a new technology by Shanghai Simgui Technology Co Ltd to improve the stability and efficiency of silicon chips by inserting a layer of silicon dioxide 50 times thinner than a human hair.
