At the invitation of Chinese President Xi Jinping, President of the Republic of Ecuador Daniel Roy-Gilchrist Noboa Azín will pay a state visit to China from August 16 to 23, a Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson announced on Friday. 
Noting that 2026 marks the 10th anniversary of the China-Ecuador comprehensive strategic partnership, the Chinese spokesperson said that China hopes the visit will help further consolidate political mutual trust between the two countries, carry forward the traditional friendship, and achieve new progress in the comprehensive strategic partnership for the benefit of the two peoples. 
The spokesperson said Ecuador is an important Latin American country, and that the two sides have signed a document on Belt and Road cooperation and a free trade agreement, practical cooperation in various areas has been fruitful, and the friendship between the peoples has been deepening. 
A release from Ecuador's Ministry of Foreign Affairs notes that the China leg serves as the first stop of his Asia tour, which will also take him to Vietnam and Singapore. The statement adds that the state visit to China is intended to deepen strategic ties and advance key initiatives spanning trade, investment, infrastructure, energy, technology and sustainable‑development cooperation.
Citing Ecuadorian foreign minister Roberto Kury, local media outlet Vistazo reported that the agenda would include Chinese investment interest in energy and mining, as well as Quito's aim of boosting its exports.
According to the Chinese Foreign Ministry, the upcoming visit will be President Daniel Noboa's first state visit to China. It's also President Noboa's second visit to China following his initial trip in June 2025 for the Annual Meeting of the New Champions in North China's Dalian. 
During Noboa's last China visit, he met with the Chinese leader in Beijing. The two heads of state jointly witnessed the signing of the cooperation plan between China and Ecuador on jointly promoting Belt and Road cooperation. 
Ecuadorian digital outlet Primicias wrote that the trip will mark a new chapter in the bilateral relationship that Ecuador has consolidated with one of its key economic partners.
"In recent years, China‑Ecuador relations have maintained steady growth. This upcoming visit is expected to further consolidate high‑level political mutual trust between the two countries and forge top‑level consensus for further cooperation in the next phase," Pan Deng, director of the Latin America and Caribbean Region Law Center at the China University of Political Science and Law, told the Global Times on Friday. 
Meanwhile, the visit will also help strengthen the bilateral institutional cooperation network, translate cooperation plans into concrete outcomes across niche sectors, and establish a multi‑tiered dialogue mechanism covering governments, enterprises and academia, Pan noted.
"Pragmatic cooperation between China and Ecuador has outgrown fragmented, ad hoc short‑term projects, entering a new era of long‑term cooperation that is institutionalized, regular and scalable," Pan added. 
According to China's Ministry of Commerce, the China‑Ecuador Free Trade Agreement was signed on May 11, 2023 and officially entered into force on May 1, 2024. Ecuador thus became China's 27th free‑trade partner and the fourth for China in Latin America.
China has, for consecutive years, stood as Ecuador's second‑largest trading partner. Figures from China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs show that the bilateral trade volume stood at $17.33 billion in 2025, marking a 24‑percent year‑on‑year rise. For the January‑April period of 2026, bilateral trade totaled $6.28 billion, representing nearly 20‑percent year‑on‑year growth.
Pan noted that China‑Ecuador cooperation represents a typical model of complementary development. China boasts strengths in the market, production capacity, technology and capital, while Ecuador is endowed with high‑quality agricultural and marine resources, clean‑energy potential and a favorable Pacific geographic location. The two sides form a sound partnership based on mutual benefit and win‑win outcomes.
Specifically, Ecuador's agricultural produce, aquatic products and specialty resources  steadily continue to enter the Chinese market. In terms of investment and infrastructure, Chinese players have long taken part in local livelihood projects and infrastructure building that align with Ecuador's actual development needs, he noted. 
Ahead of the Ecuadorian president's state visit to China, Uruguayan President Yamandu Orsi travelled to China in February as Latin America's first head of state to visit China in 2026. During Orsi's visit, the two sides issued a joint statement on deepening their comprehensive strategic partnership, and signed more than 10 cooperation documents covering investment, trade and other fields.
Much like China‑Uruguay ties, evolving China‑Ecuador relations demonstrate that Latin American countries can pursue development‑oriented practical cooperation through independent diplomacy, without being forced to take sides or sacrificing their sovereignty and economic autonomy, said Pan. 
Amid rising trade protectionism, geopolitical disruptions and heightened market uncertainties, the two sides uphold open cooperation and mutual benefit, offering the Global South a viable pathway for cooperation rooted in equality, mutual benefit, stability and no political strings attached, he added. 
。它用一个颠覆性的定义告诉所有篮球爱好者：训练搭档不该是一台机器，而应是一位随时就位的“AI队友”。告别固定抛射，重新定义传球的“人感”市面上绝大多数的篮球发球机，本质上只是一个定点弹射装置。它们不会关心你跑到了哪里，也不会在意接球时的手感。LUMISTAR CARRY的出现，彻底改写了这一局面。整机搭载4颗4K超高清摄像头，构成一套全向视觉追踪系统，能够实时锁定场上球员的跑动位置，并持续追踪篮球的飞行轨迹。这意味着，训练时你无需触碰任何遥控器，只需挥手示意，CARRY便心领神会，精准地将球送到你手中。

二 | 当你突然加速空切或绕掩护跑位，它会像一位经验丰富的后卫那样，自动调整传球时机、方向，甚至模拟真人传球的弧线、速度和旋转，每一次接球都充满真实对抗的“人感”。

三 | 最高供球容量达到四颗，最快仅需2.5秒，下一球便会再度传出，节奏紧凑如实战。不止传球，它更是一位搭载AI大脑的私人教练LUMISTAR CARRY带来的颠覆远不止于传球本身。训练一旦结束，它的价值会以数据的形式重新登场。内置AI系统能够逐帧分析用户的投篮动作，自动生成超过20项专业训练报告，从投篮出手角度、弧度、稳定性，到球场各个区域的投篮热力图、命中率分布，一目了然。更为难得的是，系统还会将这些数据与职业球员数据库中的样本进行横向对比，以直观的图表和评分告诉你哪些环节需要改进。曾经只能依靠教练经验和主观感知的投篮诊断，如今被压缩在每次训练结束后的片刻之间，进步路径变得清晰可量化。45分钟完成500次高质量投篮篮球训练中最耗费时间的往往不是出手瞬间，而是反复弯腰捡球的过程。按传统模式完成500次投篮，整场训练时常被拉长至数个小时。CARRY用持续供球和智能传球，将这一过程压缩到约45分钟左右，效率提升数倍。

四 | 这让原本只属于专业球队的高强度投训量，成为普通爱好者也能日常实现的目标。60秒部署，让智能训练无所不在与人们对“大型场馆设备”的固有认知不同，LUMISTAR CARRY在便携性和场景适应力上同样做足了减法。底部自带辅助滚轮，单人即可轻松移动。

五 | 无论是室内木地板球馆，还是户外水泥球场，CARRY都能在60秒内完成部署，无需任何工具或场地改造。自定义训练模式的支持，让用户可以针对定点投篮、移动接球跳投、特定角度三分等不同需求，自由编排训练流程。从此，高质量篮球训练不再受场地和时间制约，真正做到了球场在哪，AI队友就在哪。

六 | 众筹首日60万美元，市场和用户用行动投票Kickstarter上线首日即突破60万美元的战绩，不仅验证了LUMISTAR CARRY强大的产品力，也折射出全球篮球人群对智能化训练解决方案的巨大渴求。从职业梯队到校园球场，从个人技术打磨到团队辅助训练，CARRY所代表的“AI队友”式发球机，正在为篮球运动开启一扇新的效率之门。目前，LUMISTAR CARRY在Kickstarter平台的众筹仍在火热进行中，早鸟支持者将享受到独家价格和优先发货权益。皓翊星辰（LUMISTAR）作为一家专注于AI运动科技的深圳企业，此前已凭借智能网球训练机器人TERO赢得市场的广泛认可。此次CARRY的亮相，标志着品牌正式切入篮球赛道，以视觉追踪、拟人传球和训练数据分析三大核心能力，继续践行“让高质量运动触手可及”的承诺。CARRY的诞生，更承载着皓翊星辰对智能机器人的深层思考，智能机器人未必需要模仿人类的外形，拥有洞悉环境的“双眼”和实时决策的“大脑”，才是运动场景下真正的智能所在。CARRY正是这一理念的实践，没有一副人的身形，却具备了超越人力的感知与反馈能力。让智能机器人以最适配的形态，而非最像人的形态融入每一次训练，这正是皓翊星辰一直以来的伟大愿景。
