About

01. WHO WE ARE INFIFORCE is an innovative high-tech enterprise focusing on embodied brains and humanoid robots, dedicated to building an embodied brain that enables robots to understand the world, understand contact, and understand causality. The company’s core technology foundation is a continuously learning VLA combined with a causal world fusion model, further introducing tactile modalities to establish an integrated VTLA technical path of “Vision-Tactile-Language-Action”. Through a full-stack AI infrastructure, it builds a data and model flywheel, enabling robots to learn in virtual worlds and evolve in the real world. Around a unified embodied brain, INFIFORCE has formed a product matrix covering multiple form factors including general-purpose humanoid robots, small-sized bipedal robots, and specialized robots, and is advancing validation and commercial applications in scenarios such as commerce, manufacturing, cultural tourism, and households. To date, the company’s core products have been operated and validated in over 30 cities and 100+ scenarios across China, with business covering domestic and international markets, driving embodied intelligence into all industries and households. As a leading benchmark enterprise in embodied intelligence, INFIFORCE brings together top young scientists, Silicon Valley technology experts, global intelligent driving leaders, Fortune 500 executives, and an elite team of masters and doctors, forming a composite organizational capability covering strategic judgment, cutting-edge research, systems engineering, and commercial deployment. More than 70% of the team hold master’s or doctoral degrees, and the company has accumulated over 100 invention and core technology patents. INFIFORCE is a member unit of the Artificial Intelligence Standardization Technical Committee of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT/TC1), a member of the Artificial Intelligence Industry Alliance (AIIA), and a member of the Humanoid Robot Scenario Application Alliance. It has been recognized as a Zhejiang Provincial Specialized and Sophisticated SME, a Hangzhou Leading Talent Enterprise, and a Hangzhou Innovative SME, and its products have received the Zhejiang Provincial Industrial New Product Certification. The company has won over 100 major international and domestic awards and honors, including CCTV’s “Win in AI+” National Top 10, Forbes China Top 50 AI Technology Enterprises, and China Embodied Intelligence Leading Enterprise Top 50. It was also the only Chinese embodied intelligence enterprise officially invited to the main forum of CES 2026. 02. TECHNOLOGY ROADMAP INFIFORCE’s technology roadmap revolves around “Embodied Brain + Full‑stack AI Infra”. On the model side, it builds an embodied intelligence brain centered on continuously learning VLA, causal world models, and tactile modalities. On the engineering side, it establishes an AI Infra system covering data collection, simulation generation, model training, evaluation and deployment, and real-world feedback, forming a sustainable iteration data and model flywheel. **Pillar 1: Tactile‑Enhanced Embodied Brain** Led by Chief Scientist Chen Jiayu, INFIFORCE self-develops continuously learning VLA multimodal models and causal world fusion models, and further introduces tactile modalities to build a VTLA technical path oriented to real physical interaction — an integrated “Vision‑Tactile‑Language‑Action” model system. The continuously learning VLA model handles visual perception, language understanding, task planning, and action generation, enabling end‑to‑end capability from environment recognition to task execution. The tactile modality compensates for blind spots of pure vision during real contact, allowing the robot to perceive contact state, force changes, object slippage, and manipulation feedback. The causal world model is used to reason about future states and possible consequences of candidate actions in latent space. By integrating VLA, tactile modalities, and causal world models, the robot not only “sees, understands, and acts” but also continuously learns causal relationships between “action, contact, and outcome”, thereby improving stability, safety, and generalization in tasks such as fine grasping, flexible object handling, complex sorting, industrial assembly, and home service. **Pillar 2: Full‑stack AI Infra** Led by CTO Wang Yizhou, INFIFORCE builds a full‑stack AI Infra system that introduces mature data闭环, simulation training, automated training pipelines, and engineering evaluation methods from the autonomous driving industry into embodied intelligence, supporting continuous evolution of the embodied brain. On the data collection side, INFIFORCE uses an ego‑centric collection paradigm based on UMI + Head Camera, and further explores new multimodal data collection devices such as tactile gloves, converting visual trajectories, hand actions, contact pressure, slip feedback, and operation results from human manipulation into collectible, trainable, and reproducible data assets, improving data production efficiency for long‑horizon complex tasks and fine manipulation tasks. On the simulation generation side, INFIFORCE advances large‑scale Real2Sim simulation scenarios and interactive object generation through the collaboration of world models, reconstruction models, and VLM multimodal models, and further explores simulation modeling of tactile feedback, contact relationships, and physical interaction processes, continuously expanding the breadth, depth, and physical realism of training data. On the model training side, INFIFORCE establishes a Training Recipe system for the embodied brain, continuously generating, evaluating, and iterating model capabilities in a pipeline manner, ensuring traceable data and model lineage, reproducible training processes, and verifiable model results. At the same time, the company draws on the autonomous driving Data Engine methodology to form a data closed‑loop flywheel covering “vision‑tactile‑language‑action”, enabling robots to learn in virtual worlds and evolve in the real world. 03. CORE STRATEGY INFIFORCE adheres to the core strategy of “One Brain, Multiple Bodies, Multiple Scenarios”. One Brain: building a unified embodied brain through continuously learning VLA, causal world models, and the VTLA technical path. Multiple Bodies: empowering different robot forms with the unified brain, including general-purpose humanoid robots, small‑sized bipedal robots, and vertical‑scenario specialized robots. Multiple Scenarios: continuously validating and deploying in high‑value scenarios such as commerce, manufacturing, cultural tourism, and households, forming a growth flywheel of “data‑model‑robot‑scenario”. 04. ACADEMIC RESEARCH INFIFORCE adheres to research‑driven technological breakthroughs and engineering validation for product deployment, continuously building a chain of technical evidence for the embodied brain. In 2025, INFIFORCE established the INFIFORCE Embodied Intelligence Research Institute at Shenzhen Bay Science and Technology Innovation Park, led by Chief Scientist Professor Chen Jiayu, focusing on embodied brains, world models, continuous learning, tactile enhancement, and fine manipulation. To date, INFIFORCE has collaborated with global research forces including HKU, Tsinghua, CMU, EPFL, and Zhejiang University, producing 12 high‑level academic papers, many of which have been accepted at top conferences and journals such as ICLR, AAAI, and IEEE TPAMI, covering key directions in embodied intelligence including world models, robust decision‑making, causal reasoning, cross‑domain generalization, high‑dimensional motion control, continuous learning, and end‑to‑end robot learning, supporting INFIFORCE’s technical roadmap from perception, decision‑making, and execution to autonomous evolution. The company is also advancing its open‑source ecosystem, having released to global developers the core code of RoboTidy and a dataset containing 500 scenario assets and over 8,000 expert demonstration trajectories, and plans to release an SDK based on the AD series robots to promote standardized evaluation, reproducible validation, and developer collaboration for embodied intelligence technology. 05.
