The two parties will jointly develop intelligent solutions integrating “robotics + AI + industry scenarios” to advance the digital and intelligent transformation of key national sectors such as rail transit and energy power.

KING YOUNG Technology

KING YOUNG Technology, established in 2013, is a nationally recognized specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative “Little Giant” enterprise. The company focuses on the research, development, and application of 3D machine vision and intelligent composite robotics technologies. It independently develops and masters core technologies including high-precision 3D machine vision, multimodal perception, SLAM navigation, and force-position hybrid control. This has resulted in a comprehensive product portfolio spanning rail transit intelligent operation and maintenance, energy and power monitoring, and warehouse logistics handling. Its core products include intelligent train inspection robots, energy and power intelligent inspection robots, and smart production line equipment, all featuring industry-leading technical specifications.

Yushu Technology

Yushu Technology Co., Ltd. is a globally renowned civilian robotics company specializing in the independent R&D, production, and sales of high-performance industrial-grade general-purpose legged/humanoid robots. The company has been invited to participate in major events including the 2021 CCTV Spring Festival Gala (Year of the Ox), the 2022 Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony, the 2023 Hangzhou Asian Games and Asian Para Games, and the 2025 CCTV Spring Festival Gala (Year of the Snake). It has been featured multiple times on authoritative media outlets such as CCTV News, and has made multiple appearances at major international events. As the world's first company to publicly retail high-performance quadrupedal robots and the earliest to achieve industry implementation, the company places high importance on independent R&D and technological innovation. It has fully developed core robotics components such as motors, reducers, controllers, and LiDAR, along with high-performance perception and motion control algorithms. By integrating the entire robotics industry chain, it has achieved global technological leadership in the legged robotics field and continues to deepen its expertise in comprehensive applications, leading the industry. Its quadruped robots account for 60-70% of global shipments, while its large-scale general-purpose humanoid robots lead worldwide in shipments. Its business spans over 50% of countries and regions globally.

Core Business: Since 2017, the company has focused on industry applications, establishing a leading position particularly in fields such as power inspection. The B2 and B2-W industrial quadruped and wheeled robots launched in 2023 feature outstanding endurance, load-bearing capacity, exceptional terrain adaptability, and continuous stair-climbing capability. These robots are widely deployed across energy sectors like power, petrochemicals, and rail transportation, as well as high-speed rail and metro systems, delivering efficient and safe solutions for diverse applications.

Market Position: Holding over 70% of the global quadruped robot market share, with revenue accounting for 69.75% in 2024. Products are sold in 54 countries.

Technological Achievements: Accumulated over 200 patent applications, recognized as a National Specialized, Sophisticated, Distinctive, and Innovative “Little Giant” enterprise, and selected for Forbes China's Top 50 AI Companies in 2024.

Product Leadership: In August 2025, launched the A2 industrial-grade quadruped and wheeled robot. With its “lighter, stronger, faster” features, it not only expands industrial applications for quadruped and wheeled robots but also synergizes with the B2 series to form a complementary product matrix, jointly driving intelligent upgrades in industry applications.

In 2024, the G1 humanoid robot was introduced, featuring flexibility surpassing that of humans and unlocking unlimited movement potential to execute complex dynamic actions. Based on deep reinforcement learning and simulation training, G1 continuously evolves through AI technology and has officially entered power industry inspection and operational applications.

October 2025 saw the release of the full-scale humanoid robot H2, designed for safe and human-friendly service. Featuring perfect body proportions and a biomimetic facial design, it incorporates wide-field-of-view bionic binocular cameras and an intelligent voice interaction system. Equipped with high-torque motors, it offers high degrees of freedom and a large operational range.

Jointly Developing Intelligent Solutions Integrating “Robotics + AI + Industry Applications”

Under the terms of their cooperation agreement, KING YOUNG Technology will leverage its decade-long technical expertise in rail transit and energy sectors, along with its industry-leading capabilities in 3D machine vision, multimodal perception, and force-position hybrid control, to become a strategic partner for Yushu Technology in industrial intelligent applications. Yushi Technology, leveraging its dual market influence in industrial and consumer sectors through products like quadrupedal robots and humanoid robots, will empower KING YOUNG Technology to enhance its mobile operation capabilities in complex environments.

Establish Joint Working Committee to Collaborate on National Project Applications

KING YOUNG Technology holds over 150 national patents and 60 software copyrights, while Yushu Technology has accumulated more than 200 national patent applications. Following this strategic cooperation agreement, both parties will establish a joint working committee to hold regular meetings and form collaborative research teams for specific needs. They will also jointly apply for national-level scientific research projects, lead the development of relevant industry standards, and set global benchmarks for industrial robot collaboration.

With over a decade of deep expertise in rail transit, KING YOUNG Technology's products are deployed across leading state-owned enterprises including CRRC, China State Railway Group, and State Grid. Moving forward, KING YOUNG will grant Yushu Technology access to testing environments in rail transit and energy/power sectors, while Yushu will provide quadruped robotics and related technical support to KING YOUNG.

The “Proposal of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Formulating the 15th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development” states: “Comprehensively implement the ‘AI Plus’ initiative, using artificial intelligence to drive paradigm shifts in scientific research. Strengthen the integration of AI with industrial development, cultural advancement, livelihood safeguarding, and social governance to seize the strategic high ground in AI industrial applications and empower all sectors comprehensively.”

The strategic alliance between KING YOUNG Technology and Yushu Technology, formed under the backdrop of national policy, undoubtedly injects powerful momentum into the digital and intelligent transformation of sectors like rail transit and energy power. It also opens new avenues for imagination in the R&D of products such as intelligent inspection robots for rail transit.
