Linkhou Robot has built a comprehensive product matrix of core "eyes" and "limbs" components — including vision modules, joint modules, wheeled robot chassis, smart arms, and domain controllers — aiming to close the hardware loop of perception-decision-execution for embodied intelligence robots. Since 2023 it has aggressively expanded into core components for embodied intelligence while leveraging deep expertise in smart manufacturing. The company operates sci-tech innovation platforms and has established a global production footprint, recently bringing Linkhou Robot Intelligent Technology (Vietnam) Co., Ltd. into production as its first overseas manufacturing base. Its Jiaxing base began production in late May and the Beijing base was expanded to serve as a northern-market development and general-purpose robot mass-production hub. Linkhou plans to upgrade its proprietary smart manufacturing lines and to build Jiangsu province's first provincial laboratory focused on core technologies and components for embodied intelligence robots. The company's recent Series C raise of over 100 million yuan is intended to fund these technical, production, and lab-establishment initiatives.

GigaAI (Jijia Vision) develops world models and embodied intelligence systems, publishing GigaWorld (GigaWorld-0, GigaWorld-Policy, GigaWorld-1) and GigaBrain series models and positioning them as core engines for physical AGI. The company has built Maker H01, a high-degree-of-freedom humanoid robot designed for dexterous operation and mobile interaction, and reports commercial implementation in automotive, 3C, warehousing, and home-service scenarios with a target delivery volume in the thousands this year. In autonomous driving the firm released DriveDreamer and related simulators that have served more than 30 leading automotive OEMs and autonomous driving companies. For content production it is developing the Yisu Engine, integrating ultra-long-duration video generation, a real-time 3D world model framework, and 3D human generation tools. GigaAI reports building an industry-leading data base, projecting over 1 million hours of high-quality visual-action data and more than 10 million hours of pre-training data this year. The company was founded in June 2023 and is led by post-90s Tsinghua-educated founder Huang Guan, whose team has achieved top benchmark results (e.g., WorldArena) against major international institutions.

Robotera builds full-stack humanoid robots combining AI "brain" systems, motion control, dexterous hands and humanoid hardware, and positions itself toward logistics and industrial deployments. The company reports beginning deliveries of several thousand units in Q2 2026 and claims deployments in over ten logistics centers across China with partners including SF Group and China Post. Robotera states it has achieved up to 85% of human efficiency in some logistics contexts operating 24/7 and cites a claimed 300% growth rate (no baseline published). Its investor and partner base spans logistics, automotive and consumer electronics players such as SF Group, Geely, Renault (cited as a partner), Alibaba, Samsung, Lenovo and Haier, which the company and articles present as potential channels for further deployments. Financially, the company has raised nearly ¥2.5 billion RMB (~$350M) in total capital following the recent financing, which the company says supports scaling production and broader commercial rollouts. The articles note competition from Western and Chinese robotics firms but highlight Robotera’s operational logistics focus and industrial partnerships as key differentiators.

BYD Semiconductor is the chip arm of BYD Co. focused on producing insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs), a critical silicon switch for EV power management and other high-energy uses like air conditioners and high-speed trains. The unit is described as the only Chinese company able to produce IGBTs independently and competes with global suppliers such as Infineon. BYD hived the subsidiary off into an independent company ahead of a planned separate public listing. The business has attracted strategic and financial backers and benefits from the scale and backing of parent BYD, a Shenzhen-headquartered automaker supported by Warren Buffett. The subsidiary closed a 1.9 billion yuan Series A in late May and an additional 800 million yuan Series A+, lifting its valuation to 10.2 billion yuan with BYD retaining a 72.3% stake. Market research cited in the article forecasts the global IGBT market to grow from near 10 billion yuan in 2020 to almost 40 billion yuan by 2025, underpinning growth prospects.
