Preface
In recent years, with the rapid development of cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, and cloud computing, the technology industry is undergoing unprecedented changes. Zhongqing Robotics has been deeply involved in this field for many years, and finally broke through the technical barriers, and today it has ushered in a subversive innovation.
On October 24, 2024, Zhongqing Robotics launched its first full-scale humanoid robot, SE01, in the world, reshaping the standard in the field of humanoid robots with its unique technological innovation and design aesthetics. The importance of this announcement is not only the introduction of a new industrial product, but also the fact that it has sparked a wide discussion about the new possibilities of human-computer interaction in the future.
Break through technical barriers and achieve a natural gait
The most striking feature of the SE01 is its first-of-its-kind end-to-end neural network solution, which enables the SE01 to overcome the long-standing problem of natural gait limiting the development of humanoid robots. This solution enables the SE01 to be more elegant and energy-efficient at rest and in motion, significantly reducing the behavioral gap between robots and humans. In the past, robots often gave the impression of "breaking steps, bending legs, chopping feet", but the SE01 completely subverts this stereotype, allowing robots to walk freely with a smooth, fast and smooth pace.
SE01's excellent gait performance benefits from the superb technology and product design of the Zhongqing team, the company has gathered a group of professionals from the world's top universities, they have rich experience in the fields of motors, reducers, controllers, system design and traditional model control, and the team's talent advantages not only ensure the high-quality output of products, but also provide a steady stream of power for the company's continuous innovation.
The technical problem was overcome by the team's independent research and development of an integrated harmonic joint module, which greatly improved the flexibility and intelligence of the robot by combining reinforcement learning and imitation learning operation control scheme. Through the end-to-end neural network model, SE01 achieves a natural gait comparable to that of humans, showing a new height in the field of machine intelligence.
In terms of hardware configuration, SE01 is equipped with dual processors from NVIDIA and Intel, as well as three sets of high-precision real-sense binocular cameras, to build an advanced visual neural network system. The synergy of these cutting-edge devices gives the SE01 superior visual perception and analysis capabilities in complex environments. This high-performance visual processing power, coupled with its high-computing power processing chip, makes the SE01 not only suitable for scientific research and education, but also suitable for complex industrial scenarios.
People-oriented, technology and art
Zhao Tongyang, founder and CEO of Zhongqing Robotics, pointed out that the launch of SE01 is not only a major technological progress, but also a combination of technology and art. "Our goal is to make robotics truly work for human beings and make life smarter and more convenient," he said. "
In the product design, the SE01 is made of aircraft-grade aluminum alloy, which makes the fuselage both strong and lightweight, and the life of the mechanical structure has also been greatly improved. In addition, the team was able to achieve a smooth and natural movement of the robot without relying on traditional six-dimensional force sensors and planetary roller screws, a design that allowed the SE01 to significantly improve the reliability of the product while keeping costs under control.
The advent of the SE01 product has undoubtedly injected new vitality into the humanoid robot, and the far-reaching meaning behind it is gradually being revealed. With the achievements of full-stack self-developed technology and unique innovation path, Zhongqing Robotics has not only pointed out the direction for the development of the industry, but also set a new benchmark on the global scientific and technological stage.
Leading the trend of technology and promoting the development of the industry
At the beginning of its establishment, Zhongqing Robotics has determined a high-standard R&D route to ensure that it has always been in a leading position in technology and market competition, and its lofty ambitions in the field of embodied intelligence have been demonstrated in strategic planning. The company plans to complete the research and development of a full range of products by the end of 2024, and achieve the goal of annual production and sales of more than 1,000 units in 2025.
It is reported that Zhongqing also plans to launch more product series suitable for home and industry, such as PM and PA series. These products have been carefully designed to strike the perfect balance between performance and practicality, seeking to disrupt the existing landscape of the humanoid robot market.
Zhao Tongyang revealed: "Through deepening technological innovation and market development, we are committed to bringing embodied intelligent robots into all aspects of life. "Its far-sighted strategic layout and technology accumulation demonstrate China's strong innovation ability and potential in the field of global artificial intelligence.
Conclusion
In short, the release of SE01 marks an important step in the field of embodied intelligence. In this era of rapid development of artificial intelligence, Zhongqing Robotics may lead the next wave of technological innovation and inject impetus into the prosperity of the global artificial intelligence industry.
