Nullmax launches physical AI base and embodied brain for robot dog

Nullmax, a physical AI company, said it has launched Nullmax Physical AI (NPI), a full-stack proprietary general physical AI technology base, and built NPI-Brain, an embodied brain providing perception, understanding, memory, decision-making and motion and manipulation control. The company said the system enables machines to move from “seeing and understanding” to “autonomous interaction with the world.” In a recent test in its “Intelligence Transforms Everything” series, a robot dog named MAX equipped with NPI-Brain carried out long-horizon tasks in indoor, building, campus and street scenarios. It understood natural-language instructions, used memory to plan routes and moved across floors and areas without human intervention, Nullmax said. The company said the system does not require preset segmented tasks and can think autonomously...

Tsinghua, Infinigence AI and AGIBOT test collective learning on 96-robot fleet
A team from Tsinghua University, Infinigence AI and AGIBOT has proposed a new paradigm called Collective Experience Learning (CEL) and validated it at scale on a fleet of 96 real robots, the team said. CEL allows robots to learn not only from human demonstrations but also from the successful experience of other robots in the group. When a robot encounters difficulties during a task, it can draw on peers' past experience to find solutions and improve its performance, according to the team. By sharing and accumulating experience, the robot fleet can improve its capabilities collectively through continued practice, which the team says could support autonomous robot evolution and scaled deployment.
