Shanghai (Gasgoo)- On January 13, RoboSense unveiled 2025 highlights for its robotics business: full-year lidar sales reached 303,000 units, keeping it atop the industry. That marked a 1,141.8% year-on-year surge, underscoring its lead in robotic perception and the strength of its growth momentum.
For robotic applications, RoboSense has rolled out a slate of benchmark products now in large-scale deployment, including the second-generation solid-state lidar E1 Gen2, the 3D safety lidar Safety Airy, and the ultra-compact Airy Lite. At the recent CES 2026 show, RoboSense and smart robotic lawnmower brand Weilan Continental jointly introduced the Navimow i2 LiDAR — the first mower equipped with the E1R and other advanced hardware — delivering a comprehensive upgrade to navigation and obstacle avoidance.

In addition, leading players including AgiBot, ENGINEAI, NEURA and Mammotion have adopted RoboSense lidars as the core perception component in their products.
Beyond hardware sensing, RoboSense is also building "hand–eye–brain" collaborative capabilities for robots. On the CES 2026 show floor, its debut embodied-intelligence solution — the "Delivery Buddy" robot — drew the spotlight. Without human intervention, the robot autonomously handled long-range, flexible tasks such as unpacking, carrying, taking elevators and making deliveries. It worked about 20 hours straight during the show, executed more than 4,000 actions, and achieved a success rate near 100% — a sign of strong generalization and reliability.
This performance stems from RoboSense's fully self-developed VTLA-3D end-to-end manipulation large model and its embodied-AI solution. The stack applies full-stack AI, integrating end-to-end manipulation, end-to-end mobility and the RoboSense AI platform — encompassing core components, model training, data-collection systems and a data flywheel — and pairs them with RoboSense's own high-DoF dexterous hand and the Active Camera series. Together they form a complete loop from perception and decision-making to execution, enabling fully autonomous operation and highly human-like dexterous manipulation for the "last 100 meters" of logistics as well as industrial and service scenarios.
Since adopting an "AI + Robotics" strategy in early 2025, RoboSense has built a comprehensive AI technology system spanning chips, hardware and algorithmic models. The approach has helped partners win championships in various competitions and fostered broad, top-tier collaborations across lawn-mowing robots, unmanned delivery and humanoid robots.
As the global robotics industry keeps expanding at speed and niche use cases scale up, RoboSense — backed by its full-stack layout and leading market share — is well positioned to further accelerate growth in 2026.
