Shenzhen's Embodied Intelligence Port Launches to Enhance AI Functionality and Data Services

In 2026, Shenzhen's Bao'an Qianhai Kexing Science Park will officially launch the first 'data service + incubation empowerment' embodied AI ecosystem community, known as 'Jubaopen.' This initiative aims to address the critical challenge in the embodied intelligence industry: bridging the gap between prototype development and functional deployment.

The 'Jubaopen' community will focus on data services, creating a closed-loop system for data collection, cleaning, labeling, training, and iteration. It will support over 100 terminals simultaneously, covering 50 to 100 tasks, and is expected to reduce R&D costs for enterprises by 30% to 50%. The efficiency of this model is exemplified by the case of Zhenjue Wanxiang, which has successfully supplied wearable data collection devices to North American robotics giant Figure.

The embodied intelligence port spans 23 square kilometers and hosts over 139 upstream and downstream companies, including Tencent and VIVO. Bao'an's strategy includes providing open testing environments across various industries, facilitating rapid development and market entry for companies. As the competition in embodied intelligence shifts towards scalable applications, this port aims to offer systematic solutions for the industry.

Editor's Note

The launch of the Embodied Intelligence Port in Shenzhen represents a significant step in addressing the challenges of data scarcity and functional deployment in the robotics sector. By fostering a collaborative ecosystem, it aims to streamline the transition from prototype to practical application, which is crucial for the industry's growth and competitiveness.
