The development of embodied intelligence is shifting from creating individual robots to establishing collaborative ecosystems. At this year's WAIC, the industry is exploring whether new models and skills can be rapidly integrated into robots for practical applications. A partnership between Leju and Ant Group's Lingbo has led to the release of logistics sorting results, emphasizing the importance of industry collaboration in scaling humanoid robotics.
Leju believes that the growth of the humanoid robot industry relies on collective efforts rather than individual companies. The collaboration features Lingbo's general embodied base model, LingBot-VLA, while Leju focuses on post-training and motion control. This partnership has created a comprehensive technological chain that connects models, data, and computational power, marking a significant step in the industry.
As embodied intelligence enters a critical phase, the ability to effectively translate models into real-world applications becomes paramount. Leju's advancements in post-training capabilities and the OpenLET community's support for developers are crucial for accelerating the deployment of new skills in various industries. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
