Beijing developer of the world's first EV charging companion robot with suspended cable docking and AI-driven interaction.
Mio (Beijing) Robotics Co., Ltd. is a Beijing-based robotics company best known for developing what it markets as the world's first "charging companion robot," a service robot designed to attend electric vehicles at charging stations. The company exhibited the product at the 2026 World Robot Conference in Beijing under booth A107, and its CEO is Xu Jingjian. Public information about the company's registered address, founding date, employee count, and funding history could not be independently confirmed as of the source date, and the company's own website is a client-side single-page application from which no further factual detail could be extracted.
The company publicly unveiled its charging companion robot on August 11, 2025, at the Beijing Yizhuang Robot World venue, describing it as an attempt to make electric-vehicle charging a more attended, service-oriented experience rather than a purely mechanical one, summarized in the company's own tagline that "the robot understands you better than a charging pile." The robot uses what Mio calls a "low-altitude suspension plus gun-line smart control" structure, in which the charging cable and connector are managed from a suspended overhead mechanism rather than a fixed ground-mounted pile, a design the company says can reduce the ground footprint required for a charging bay by as much as 95 percent and allow deployment in tight or irregular parking layouts.
The robot runs an edge-deployed large AI model that drives dynamic facial expressions and customizable voice interaction with drivers, is paired with a "panoramic guard" remote-monitoring system for site safety, and is designed to be compatible with multiple electric-vehicle charging connector types. Its stated operating temperature range is minus 30 to 55 degrees Celsius, intended to support outdoor deployment across a wide range of Chinese climates. Alongside the charging companion robot, Mio has also announced a second product line described as a "twin collaborative robot," billed as an industry first, although the company has not published technical specifications for it, so it is not catalogued here as a separate product.
At the product launch, Mio signed cooperation agreements with the Institute of Intelligent Manufacturing and Complex Systems at Beijing Information Science and Technology University, with property-services firm Beijing Zhuzong Beiyu Property Service Co., Ltd., and with the Beijing Robot Industrial Park in Yizhuang, and the company has stated it expects first-year production output to exceed RMB 100 million once the charging companion robot reaches volume production.
