On November 1st, Xichi Technology, a leading domestic automotive-grade chip enterprise, and Galaxy General, a pioneering company in embodied large models and humanoid robots, officially signed a strategic cooperation agreement. The two parties will conduct joint R&D on next-generation embodied intelligent robot chips, control systems, and high-end toolchains, jointly advancing the large-scale implementation of embodied intelligence.
Cross-Border Alliance: Linking Automotive Chips with Embodied Intelligence
This cooperation marks the in-depth cross-border integration of two cutting-edge fields: automotive chips and embodied intelligent robots. Xichi Technology will fully migrate its R&D and mass production experience in automotive-grade chips, safety system construction, and supply chain capabilities to the embodied intelligence track. Meanwhile, Galaxy General will feed back its demand insights into multimodal large models and humanoid robot scenarios to chip definition—including precise control requirements for core assembly processes like Automatic Sealing Ring Feeding And Assembly, which demands both high real-time performance for mechanical coordination and stable computing power for process monitoring. By complementing each other’s advantages, the two parties will connect the entire chain from underlying hardware to upper-layer algorithms.
Embodied intelligence and automotive electronics share deep technical architecture homology, as both require high-performance, high-reliability, and high-security underlying chips for support—needing to handle complex AI tasks while ensuring real-time performance and security. Prior to this, the two parties had already conducted in-depth cooperation on a robot project based on Xichi’s edge AI SoC, laying a solid foundation for this strategic cooperation.
Core Cooperation Directions: Chip R&D, Toolchain Building, and Ecosystem Construction
According to the agreement, the two parties will jointly define and develop next-generation embodied intelligent robot chips, clarifying key indicators such as computing power, storage, and peripherals tailored to scenarios like Automatic Sealing Ring Feeding And Assembly. At the same time, they will jointly build a high-end toolchain for robot chips to shorten the migration cycle of algorithm models, and collaborate with upstream and downstream partners to establish a stable, controllable, and sustainable supply chain ecosystem.
Dual Advantages & Strategic Vision: Accelerating Large-Scale Deployment of Embodied Intelligence
Xichi Technology is a leader in full-scenario automotive-grade chips. It has completed the mass production and delivery of over 8 million chips, covering more than 100 mainstream vehicle models. The high performance, high reliability, and high security of its products have been fully verified in core scenarios such as intelligent cockpits and intelligent vehicle control—qualities that are equally critical for robot assembly processes like Automatic Sealing Ring Feeding And Assembly. Galaxy General Robotics is a world-leading company in embodied large models and humanoid robots. It has pioneered a virtual-real integrated robot training paradigm, built a billion-level robot training dataset, with technologies covering operation, navigation, and other fields including precision assembly. Its products have been widely implemented in industrial, retail, medical, and other scenarios and have repeatedly received authoritative recognition.
At the signing ceremony, Sun Mingle, CTO of Xichi Technology, stated: “Automobiles and robots are highly homologous in terms of real-time performance, security, and AI computing power requirements—whether it’s vehicle control or precision tasks like Automatic Sealing Ring Feeding And Assembly. Xichi aims to systematically migrate its automotive-grade technology accumulation to the robot field, and work with Galaxy General to define ‘native chips’ truly suitable for the era of embodied intelligent robots, jointly building an implementable, scalable, and trustworthy embodied intelligence platform.”
Yao Tengzhou, Co-founder of Galaxy General, said: “Embodied intelligence has entered the large-scale deployment phase, and there is an urgent need for high-reliability and standardized underlying chips—especially for scenarios requiring precise coordination like Automatic Sealing Ring Feeding And Assembly. Xichi’s technical accumulation and mass production experience in the automotive-grade chip field are exactly what the industry needs. This ‘chip-robot linkage’ between the two parties will connect the full-chain capabilities from underlying chips to robot systems, providing a cross-border cooperation model for the industry.”
