DAY4 | ACE ROBOTICS Unveils "Human-Centric" ACE Embodied Intelligence R&D Paradigm

Leading the new development of the embodied intelligence industry with its robust Kairos 3.0 World Model, A1 Embodied Super Brain Module, and independent ecosystem

ACE ROBOTICS today officially launched its industry-first "Human-Centric" ACE Embodied Intelligence R&D Paradigm, the first open-source and commercially applicable Kairos 3.0 World Model, and the A1 Embodied Super Brain Module, which empowers embodied entities with autonomous spatial intelligence. These innovations position ACE ROBOTICS at the forefront of the embodied intelligence industry by establishing a comprehensive, self-controllable, and mutually beneficial ecosystem.

Wang Xiaogang, co-founder and executive director of SenseTime, and chairman of ACE ROBOTICS, stated: "ACE ROBOTICS is committed to continuous innovation and collaboration with industry partners to build an open and synergistic ecosystem. Through the ACE Embodied Intelligence R&D Paradigm, Kairos World Model, and Embodied Super Brain, we aim to drive large-scale commercial implementation of embodied intelligence and build a self-controllable, future-leading development path for China in global AI competition."

The "Human-Centric" ACE Embodied Intelligence R&D Paradigm

Empowering robots with a “Super Brain” with the Kairos 3.0 World Model

The traditional "Machine-Centric" R&D paradigm places robot hardware parameters at the core of the development process, which leads to high data-collection costs, inefficiency, and skill models that are heavily tied to specific hardware. These are critical barriers to the industry's path toward scale and generalization.

ACE ROBOTICS pioneered the "Human-Centric" ACE Embodied Intelligence R&D Paradigm, fundamentally transforming industry practices. This paradigm takes human-physical world interaction patterns as the core research starting point and employs Ambient Data Capture as the engine, building a complete "Ambient Data Capture → Kairos 3.0 World Model → Embodied Interaction" technology chain.

l  Ambient Data Capture Technology: Leveraging cross-perspective multi-modal devices, this technology integrates multi-dimensional data (including visual, tactile, voice, and mechanical laws) with innovative physical-level modeling and full-scene coverage. This delivers precise, full-element data on "human-object-environment" interactions to train embodied intelligence models, unlocking four core data values and converting them into dynamic scenario data directly usable for model training—seamlessly connecting the entire process from data collection to practical application.

²  Comprehensive Data Dimensions: The technology upgrades multi-modal data encompassing over 10 perspectives, 8 modalities, and 4 categories of object attributes, covering all key elements.

²  Extended Task Coverage: Supports complex tasks involving hundreds of atomic actions over minutes.

²  Higher Interaction Precision: Achieves sub-pixel-level accuracy, enabling precise tracking of complex movements, such as fine hand operations.

²  Scalable Collection Efficiency: Rapidly accumulates massive data from 100,000 to over 10 million hours.

l  Kairos 3.0 World Model (Kairos 3.0): As the world’s first "multi-modal understanding-generation-prediction" world model, Kairos 3.0 integrates physical laws, human behavior, and real robot actions to provide a comprehensive understanding of the physical laws of the real world and the underlying logic of human behavior. It also features capabilities to generate long-term dynamic interaction scenario videos and predicts countless evolutionary paths. It provides a high-fidelity and widely applicable virtual training environment for embodied intelligence, while collaborating with industry partners to build a spatial intelligence innovation ecosystem and reshape the global technological competition landscape.

A1 Embodied Super Brain Module: Accelerating Commercial Implementation

The A1 module, based on ACE ROBOTICS' leading pure vision, mapless, end-to-end VLA model, enables real-time parsing of natural language instructions and image semantics, allowing human-like understanding of complex real-world environments; and autonomous completion of inspection, following, obstacle avoidance, and other tasks, achieving true "autonomous action" capabilities.

When combined with the Insta360 Panoramic Perception Solution and SenseTime's SenseFoundry Vision Platform, A1 establishes a comprehensive, high-precision environmental perception system covering 10+ industries, 150+ intelligent application scenarios, and needs from daily behavior analysis to special risk warnings

The embodied intelligence industry has entered a critical phase of accelerated implementation. With ecosystem synergy as its core, ACE ROBOTICS has established strategic cooperation with partners across multiple sectors—including embodied device manufacturers, hardware and chip companies, cloud service providers, and data vendors—to jointly build a comprehensive, self-controllable embodied intelligence ecosystem. This collaboration is driving technology from isolated breakthroughs to scenario-based implementation, leading the large-scale development of China's embodied intelligence industry, and joining hands with industry partners to explore the future landscape of embodied intelligence in China.

About ACE ROBOTICS – Equipping robots with intelligent "brains" and engaging "souls"

ACE ROBOTICS is a pioneering robotics company dedicated to advancing the field of embodied intelligence. Founded by SenseTime co-founder Wang Xiaogang, the company has brought together a team of young, globally scarce AI scientists and industry experts to focus on embodied intelligence. Through breakthrough technological innovations and deep insights into embodied intelligence scenarios, we aim to empower robots with the ability to autonomously understand and explore the physical world, thereby accelerating their commercial implementation.

The company pioneered the ACE R&D paradigm and built a vision-based "environmental data engine, real-world cognition, embodied interaction generalization" technology chain. Using full spatiotemporal and multi-perspective environmental capture as its engine, along with Kairos 3.0 – China’s first open-source and commercially applicable world model – plus the Embodied Foundation Model as its technical backbone, ACE ROBOTICS addresses core industry challenges such as data scarcity, common sense gaps, poor generalization, and limited versatility. Simultaneously, the company unveiled its flagship A1 Embodied Super Brain Module, accelerating the large-scale commercial deployment of embodied intelligence across diverse scenarios.

ACE ROBOTICS is both a technology pioneer and an ecosystem builder. Through strategic cooperation with top hardware manufacturers, cloud service providers, and vertical scenario partners, we have broken through the "model-hardware-scenario" industrial deadlock, providing standardized and customized solutions that are driving the development of China's embodied intelligence industry.
