Deployed-AI year one: nearly RMB 2bn revenue, 9,700 robots delivered — and a clear signal to Indonesia
2026-10-26 ~ 2026-11-01
- Deployment report card: At its Innovation Day, AgiBot disclosed H1 revenue near RMB 2bn, 9,700 humanoid robots delivered (over 43% global share) and a full-stack GO-3 Preview release, pledging to open-source by year-end. Leading players are shifting from building robots to deploying robots — scale operating data is the new industry calling card.
- Infrastructure: Hangzhou Qiantang joined Unitree and other partners in a five-party agreement to build embodied-AI industry infrastructure, with a joint venture targeting operation before the Spring Festival, covering technical training, scenario validation, testing & certification and incubation. Local state capital is stepping in as a real-scenario classroom — a new source of endorsement for scenario players.
- Scenario signings: Jack Technology unveiled the Aini sewing robot and its production-line suite, signing 11 leading apparel companies on launch day; Boyin Heychuang, incubated by Bosch's Boyuan Capital and Galbot, opened its Suzhou HQ — in volume production within six months, with 8 partners signed on site. The global-manufacturer real-scenario plus robot-tech model is now proven in both apparel and industry.
- Indonesia signal: At the Danantara tech-innovation investment forum, AI² Robotics explored partnerships with Indonesian counterparts through technology transfer, joint R&D and multi-industry applications. Following Chery AiMOGA's Jakarta experience store, demand-side heat in Indonesia keeps rising — the window for Chinese embodied-AI players going global is widening.

Robots learn to weld, drones carry mountain fruit: which process step holds the opportunity?
2026-10-19 ~ 2026-10-25
- Standards & process: 16 new robot-related national standards were approved; Nanjing Jiangbei New Area opened an embodied-AI robot welding training ground. Standards govern safety boundaries; process data drives capability growth.
- Capital flows: Yita Dynamics raised 100M+ yuan across seed rounds for compliant force-controlled dual arms and joint modules; Shendu Medical's near-100M-yuan Series B advances microscope surgical robots. Money is flowing into manipulation capability and niche clinical tasks.
- Production milestones: Unitree's G1 passed 10,000–20,000 units built, Qiyuan marked its 5,000th personal robot, and Tesla's first production-quality Optimus units rolled off the line; Singapore ran a challenge around Micron semiconductor chamber maintenance. The industry has moved from demos to capacity ramp-up.
- Low-altitude, rural & global: farm-drone training in Yunnan's mountain orchards (spraying and fruit lifting); Suzhou started procuring a 1.5M-yuan low-altitude training centre; Wing expanded delivery around seven Walmart stores in Charlotte; Portugal's Beyond Vision raised €28M+. Beyond flying, process linkage and operating units are where the value sits.
