Content:
Astribot, a company dedicated to the commercialization of AI robots, has secured millions in Pre-A funding. The company, which specializes in developing humanoid robots, announced the completion of its Pre-A round of financing, amounting to tens of millions of dollars. The investment was led by Vertex Ventures, with participation from industry funds such as Dao Tong Investment and Qinghui Investment, as well as existing investor Yunqing Capital. Hou Capital acted as the exclusive financial advisor for the funding round.
The funds raised will be主要用于顶尖人才招募、研发投入、商业化部署等工作,以加速推进公司的发展. Astribot, established in December 2022 and headquartered in Shenzhen, is focused on developing a new generation of AI robot assistants to realize the vision of billions of people having AI robot assistants. The company’s AI robot model S1 boasts omnipotent operation capabilities, capable of handling complex tasks through intelligent human-robot interaction supported by multimodal large models. S1 robots are not only capable of learning, thinking, and working like humans but also use human tools and equipment to assist in mundane, difficult, or dangerous tasks.
Astribot has introduced an industry-first integrated software and hardware system architecture tailored for AI, deeply integrating artificial intelligence with robotics technology to lay the foundation for embodied intelligence and core technology advantages. The “brain” of S1 robot possesses superhuman perception, cognition, real-time decision-making abilities, and intelligent understanding and multimodal interaction execution capabilities, enabling generalized operations at the object, task, and environmental levels. The company has also achieved a critical breakthrough in data acquisition for embodied intelligence, enabling efficient and cost-effective utilization of real-world data and the collection of high-quality multi-dimensional data from a first-person perspective, realizing human multimodal data interaction in vision, touch, hearing, and kinesthesia.
In terms of hardware capabilities, S1 is designed with a novel flexible and rigid coupling transmission mechanism, achieving high operational performance at a low cost, making S1 the strongest in its class in terms of operational performance. Technological cost reduction is accelerating the implementation of scenarios, and the company has initiated cooperation with numerous industry leaders and has achieved significant results in fields such as scientific research, logistics and warehousing, manufacturing, laboratory automation, retail and consumption, elderly care, and personalized education.
Astribot expects to complete the release of its first-generation product in the near future and to achieve commercialization by 2024. Looking to the future, Astribot plans to continuously iterate its products and expand the boundaries of application scenarios. As AI technology continues to advance and application scenarios expand, Astribot is poised to become a key force in realizing the vision of coexistence, co-creation, and co-prosperity between humans and machines.
