The only Chinese team moving a 10,000-GPU autonomous-driving organisation wholesale to robots
The only Chinese team to move an intact autonomous-driving organisation — trained on tens of millions of hours of data, ten-thousand-GPU infrastructure and million-vehicle mass production — into robotics, building a real-time, scalable physical-native foundation model.
Chuguang Yueqian takes a team that has already industrialised end-to-end models in autonomous driving — tens of millions of training hours, ten-thousand-card clusters, millions of production vehicles — and applies the same scaling system to robots. It combines a World Mind Lab world-model team, a North American humanoid-control team and robot hardware and commercialisation teams, starting from 'seeing the physical world clearly' to build a physical-native foundation model that runs in real time and keeps scaling. Its first industrial deployment is on precision optical-module production lines with Zhongji Innolight.
01Products and solutions
Physical-native foundation model (fast system, 10B+)
A scalable 'fast system' handling high-frequency physical perception, world prediction, action generation and real-time correction, paired with a 'slow system' that takes semantic understanding and long-horizon planning from general large models.
Training and data infrastructure
The team's infrastructure delivered 2× engineering training efficiency, 3× from high-value data mining, 5× overall training efficiency, storage and iteration cost cut to one third, and model iteration cycles reduced from weeks to days.
Production-line robot training programmes
Long-horizon manipulation tasks on precision manufacturing lines, starting with optical-module production at Zhongji Innolight, developed as an industry benchmark.
02Key strengths
Core barrier is the team: industrial scaling of very large end-to-end models already proven in autonomous driving with tens of millions of hours of data, ten-thousand-card clusters and mass-produced vehicles.
Four technical pillars — physical representation, real-time execution, long-term memory and scaling — addressing the robot's 'eyes, cerebellum and physical intuition' gap.
World Mind Lab publicly defines its research as physical world modelling: interaction, future dynamics, geometry and embodied AI; GEM-4D raised real-robot success from 61 to 81 percent; Flow Equivariant World Models significantly outperform baselines on long-horizon prediction.
Already training robots on manufacturing lines, with Zhongji Innolight's optical-module production as the first benchmark.
