Autonomous driving and embodied intelligence share core technological foundations, including environmental perception, multimodal decision-making algorithms, and perception hardware, enabling significant cross-domain synergies and cost reductions in research and development. As automotive companies increasingly enter the humanoid robotics field, they leverage industrial and ecosystem synergies to accelerate innovation.  

As a provider of mass-produced autonomous driving solutions in China, iMotion is actively expanding into robotics, embodied intelligence, and related fields through technology integration, supply chain collaboration, and ecosystem development. The company has already established a dedicated robotics division to drive business growth in this sector.  

Embodied intelligence, a key focus within the "AI+" industry, is transitioning from policy-driven initiatives and technology breakthroughs to large-scale commercialization. Industrial applications are driving supply chain maturity, while the growing adoption of service robots is expected to create a trillion-yuan market, reshaping productivity across manufacturing and service industries.
