##元萝卜发布全球首个家用国际象棋机器人，机械爪技术实现立体棋子抓取
**北京，2024年8月21日** – 2024世界机器人大会在北京隆重召开，商汤科技旗下家用机器人品牌“元萝卜SenseRobot”家族全系产品集体亮相，并发布最新产品——元萝卜AI下棋机器人——国际象棋专业版（以下简称“元萝卜国象机器人”）。这款机器人是全球首个实现量产并走进家庭的国际象棋机器人，标志着家用下棋机器人领域迈出了重要一步。
元萝卜国象机器人作为元萝卜的第三款下棋机器人产品，在AI和工程机械方面进行了大量专项技术升级和创新。最显著的突破在于其首次在家用机器人上实现了通过机械爪拾取立体棋子，并进行人机对弈、人人对弈、记谱复盘等功能。
商汤科技联合创始人、元萝卜总裁马堃表示：“自1997年‘深蓝’战胜人类国际象棋冠军以来，近30年间，国际上一直没有出现国际象棋机器人实现量产走进家庭的先例。今天，元萝卜攻克了前所未有的技术与工程难题，开创了业界先河，填补了市场空白。”
**技术升维，机械爪精准抓取立体棋子**
相较于此前的“象棋版”和“围棋版”AI下棋机器人，元萝卜“国际象棋”机器人可谓是一次技术的升维。国际象棋采用立体棋子，且棋子造型各有特色，高低错落，光影交叠，这对机器人抓取和识别棋子造成了很大难度。
元萝卜国象机器人特别为机械臂设置了四个自由度，构成肩部、肘部、小臂、爪子4个自由度的灵活结构，并首次在家用机器人上引入机械爪。机械爪以0.5mm的极高精度和稳定度进行垂直抓取操作，结合精准的力度控制，能够轻松自如地完成取子、放子动作，且不会触碰相邻棋子。
此外，元萝卜国象机器人还通过专项的深度学习训练和算法优化，显著提升了感知能力。仅凭棋子露出的微小顶部区域的形状和颜色，就能准确判定棋子类别及其在棋盘上的精确坐标，精度在1mm以内，甚至还能自动扶正倒下的棋子。
**体验升维，助力爱好者涨棋，帮学棋儿童入门**
在棋力体系的构建上，元萝卜国象机器人同样独树一帜。其搭载自研的AI引擎将棋力精细划分为25个等级，可对标世界第一国际象棋网站chess.com从200~3200分的棋力和等级分，并拥有超越人类世界冠军的最高棋力水平。
元萝卜国象机器人面向学棋儿童和广大爱好者提供了AI习题精练、棋力闯关、巅峰对决、残局挑战、星球联盟、AI打谱，以及大语言模型对话等多项功能，能够充分满足不同棋艺等级用户的对弈需求。
**外观升级，科技感与仪式感兼具**
全新的国象机器人外观也进行了升级，别具一格的星际灰外观配色、顶部的皇后皇冠，以及发光的电源键等元素，营造出了更加酷炫的视觉观感和科技质感。同时，1:1比例精准还原的真实棋子，也能给用户带来更具仪式感和沉浸感的对弈体验。
元萝卜国象机器人的推出，代表了元萝卜在技术、工程化以及工业设计能力方面的一次升维跨越，是其作为家用下棋机器人开创者在下棋场景持续深耕，厚积薄发的重要体现，也是走向国际化的重要一步。
元萝卜国象机器人将于9月下旬正式上市，敬请期待。

##Yuan Robot Debuts First Mechanical Claw for Chess, Bringing AI Chess Robots to Homes!
**Keywords:** Yuan Robot, Chess, Home
**News Content:**
**Beijing, August 21, 2024** – The 2024 World Robot Conference was held grandly in Beijing,with all products of the “Yuan Robot SenseRobot” family, a home robot brand under SenseTime, making their debut. The company also launched its latest product- the Yuan Robot AI Chess Robot – International Chess Professional Edition (hereinafter referred to as “Yuan Robot Chess Robot”). This robot is the world’s first mass-produced chess robot to enter homes, marking a significant step in the field ofhome chess robots.
As the third chess robot product of Yuan Robot, the Yuan Robot Chess Robot has undergone numerous specialized technical upgrades and innovations in AI and engineering mechanics. The most notable breakthrough is the realization of picking up three-dimensional chesspieces using a mechanical claw on a home robot for the first time, enabling human-machine chess, human-human chess, scorekeeping, and replay functions.
“Since Deep Blue defeated the human chess champion in 1997, there has been no precedent for chess robots to be mass-produced and enterhomes worldwide in the past 30 years,” said Ma Kun, co-founder of SenseTime and president of Yuan Robot. “Today, Yuan Robot has overcome unprecedented technical and engineering challenges, breaking new ground in the industry and filling a market gap.”
**Technological Advancement: Mechanical Claw Precisely Grasps Three-Dimensional Chess Pieces**
Compared to the previous “Chinese Chess” and “Go” AI chess robots, the Yuan Robot “International Chess” robot is a technological advancement. International chess uses three-dimensional chess pieces with unique shapes, varying heights, and overlapping light and shadows, posing significant challenges for robot grasping and recognition.
The Yuan Robot Chess Robot specially designed its robotic arm with four degrees of freedom, forming a flexible structure with four degrees of freedom: shoulder, elbow, forearm, and claw. For the first time, a mechanical claw was introduced to a home robot. The mechanical claw performs vertical grasping operations with an extremely high precision of0.5mm and stability, combined with precise force control, allowing it to effortlessly complete picking up and placing chess pieces without touching adjacent pieces.
Furthermore, the Yuan Robot Chess Robot has significantly enhanced its perception capabilities through specialized deep learning training and algorithm optimization. Based solely on the shape and color of the small toparea of the chess piece, it can accurately determine the type of chess piece and its precise coordinates on the chessboard, with an accuracy of within 1mm. It can even automatically straighten fallen chess pieces.
**Experience Advancement: Helps Enthusiasts Improve Chess Skills, Introduces Chess to Children**
In terms ofchess strength system construction, the Yuan Robot Chess Robot stands out. Its self-developed AI engine divides chess strength into 25 levels, corresponding to the chess strength and rating from 200 to 3200 on the world’s leading chess website chess.com, and possesses the highest chess strengthlevel exceeding that of human world champions.
The Yuan Robot Chess Robot provides AI exercise drills, chess strength challenges, peak duels, endgame challenges, planet alliances, AI game analysis, and large language model dialogue for chess-learning children and enthusiasts, meeting the chess needs of users at different skill levels.
**Appearance Upgrade: Combines Technological Feel with a Sense of Ceremony**
The new chess robot’s appearance has also been upgraded. The unique interstellar gray color scheme, the queen’s crown on top, and the glowing power button create a more cool visual experience and technological feel. At the same time, the real chess pieces accuratelyreproduced in a 1:1 ratio provide a more ceremonial and immersive chess experience for users.
The launch of the Yuan Robot Chess Robot represents a technological, engineering, and industrial design advancement for Yuan Robot. It is a testament to its continuous efforts in the chess scene as a pioneer in home chess robots, accumulating experienceand achieving breakthroughs, and a crucial step towards internationalization.
The Yuan Robot Chess Robot will be officially launched in late September. Stay tuned!
