The two parties announced that they will deeply integrate their respective strengths in robot hardware and cloud-based AI technology to jointly accelerate the large model's large-scale application in the industrial and logistics fields.

According to the agreement, the two sides will carry out comprehensive cooperation around multimodal large models, VLA (vision-language-action) models, world models, and the Doubao ecosystem interaction. Huoshan Engine will provide AI cloud-native infrastructure, injecting core power into all types of robots under UQI Youqi, including humanoid robots, autonomous delivery vehicles "Chitu," and industrial mobile robots "Wali," significantly enhancing the robots' ability to understand and perform tasks in complex industrial scenarios.
