From 2020 to the first half of 2023, the proportion of R&D investment in total revenue reached 56.5%. Since its establishment in 2012, Youbi has always focused on the research and development of humanoid robot core technologies, and has laid out full-stack core technologies such as robot motion planning and control, servo drive, computer vision and voice interaction, SLAM and autonomous navigation technology, visual servo operation and human-computer interaction, and robot operating system application framework ROSA. It has more than 1,800 related patents. People’s Daily Online Research Institute “Humanoid robot technology patent Analysis report” mentioned that Youbi is the world’s largest number of humanoid robot patents. While deeply cultivating core technologies, Youbi, as one of the few market participants in the global humanoid robot industry, has also taken the lead in commercializing humanoid robots.

In the global humanoid robot is still in the early stage of technological exploration and development, based on the humanoid robot full-stack technology, Youbichoose has achieved large-scale landing applications in many fields such as artificial intelligence education, intelligent logistics, intelligent health care, and commercial services. As of June 30, 2023, the company has served more than 50 countries and regions around the world, has more than 900 enterprise customers, and has sold more than 760,000 robots.

According to Zhou Jian, Youbi is focusing on three major application scenarios for humanoid robots, including industrial manufacturing, commercial services and family companionship. Among them, intelligent manufacturing will become the first large-scale application of humanoid robots, humanoid robots will redefine the era of AI workers, people from repetitive labor free; The commercial service scene is the fastest application market for humanoid robots, while the home landing scene is the most

potential application market for humanoid robots. In 2023, Youbi developed Walker S, a humanoid robot applied to the industrial field, and cooperated with a number of new energy vehicle head enterprises to plan the application of humanoid robots in manufacturing scenes in stages.

On October 20, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the Guidance on the Innovation and Development of humanoid Robots, pointing out that humanoid robots integrate advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, high-end manufacturing, and new materials, and are expected to become disruptive products after computers, smartphones, and new energy vehicles, which will profoundly change the human production and life style and reshape the global industrial development pattern. At present, the accelerated evolution of humanoid robot technology has become a new highland of scientific and technological competition, a new track for future industries, and a new engine for economic development, with great development potential and wide application prospects.

On November 2, 2023, Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center Co., Ltd. was formally established to carry out five key tasks such as universal humanoid robot prototype and universal humanoid robot grand model, which is also the first provincial humanoid robot innovation center in the country. It is jointly held by Beijing Yizhuang Investment Holding Co., Ltd. and Youbi, Xiaomi and Beijing Capital Electromechanical. The legal representative is CTO Xiong Youjun.

Favorable policies have attracted a number of technology giants, startups and capital running into the entrance, and with the breakthrough development of general artificial intelligence technology, the humanoid robot industry is at the breaking point of the right time, geographical location, and people.

Youbi has persisted in the field of humanoid robots for more than 11 years, and now successfully listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, becoming the “first share of humanoid robots”, which brings new momentum to the Hong Kong capital market, helps Hong Kong achieve a new leap in the field of innovation and technology development, and brings positive signals and firm confidence to the global humanoid robot market.

In the context of Hong Kong’s favorable innovation policy, Youbi has been invited to set up a subsidiary and Youbi Hong Kong Research Institute in Hong Kong, attract more global talents, combine the research and development advantages of Hong Kong and Macao universities to build a world-class scientific and technological innovation platform, strengthen the industrial advantages with international competitiveness, and accelerate the layout of artificial intelligence and humanoid robots in the forefront of the digital economy. Based on Hong Kong’s international advantages, it radiates Southeast Asian and even European and American markets, connects the world and serves the world.

With listing as a new starting point, Youbi will continue
