Wang Xiaogang explains what the new robotics venture means for SenseTime’s AI plans.

The startup’s R0 robot is nearing commercialization.

What began as a mobile playmate for cats and dogs has grown into a global line of companion robots.

Agibot, Galbot, UBTech, and Dobot are leading the charge, with all-purpose models expected to lag behind.

In China’s far west, the startup is developing modular robots designed to operate in harsh outdoor environments.

The latest raise marks a turning point for the startup following early production and logistics setbacks.

The deal signals growing investor interest in emotionally responsive machines.

The company’s push into multimodal data collection and reinforcement learning signals its aim to control the full robotics stack.
