Robosen unveils Transformer-based robots with AI tech

The Chinese company Robosen Robotics Inc has revealed its plans to use artificial intelligence to produce robots that can easily "understand" users through voice-activation technology.Get more news about High Quality Programmable Robot,you can vist our website!

Robosen has debuted its latest programmable robots modeled after the Transformers Optimus Prime and Bumblebee to coincide with the release of the latest film in the series, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts. The new products come with the approval Hasbro, a US toy company which is the proprietor of the Transformers brand.

Pan Qinghua, president of Chinese AI pioneer iFlytek’s engineering institute, said the company's AI-powered large-language model SparkDesk will greatly improve the firm's interaction systems in the future.

Robosen said it is committed to bringing fun and memorable cutting-edge robotics and AI experiences to everyone, and the company has also developed robotic actuation technologies such as high-precision motors, advanced adaptive control algorithms and structural deformation design.
The promise of STEAM robots, which are billed to increase children’s interest in science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM), has been around for years. The market is teeming with products from hardcore robotics scientists and their copycats. Many have faded away, but investor interest hasn’t died down, at least for one company coming from China.

Keyi Technology, which is known for its modular, cycloptic robot ClicBot, just raised “tens of millions of dollars” in a new funding round. Powered by Blockly, Google’s visual drag-and-drop programming language, ClicBot claims it can be designed in thousands of different ways.

The lead investor of the funding round was Anker, the China- and U.S.-based battery pack and charging giant with a current market cap of 27 billion yuan ($4 billion). Other investors included Xiaomi, Xiaomi founder Lei Jun’s Shunwei Capital and BlueRun Ventures China, the Silicon Valley early-stage investor that entered China in the 2000s.

When asked about details of its investment portfolio, Anker declined to comment. It also didn’t answer a question about potential collaborations between Keyi and itself.

Keyi’s new funding comes at a time when inflation in the U.S. and Europe is hitting consumers’ appetite for tech devices and other goods. But Keyi, which derives 60% of its revenues from outside of China, sees “significant growth” in the global smart toys market thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, which prompted millions of children to learn from home. And like its peers, Keyi is enjoying a growing demand for its educational robots.
