Unleashing Swarm Intelligence: UBTECH Pioneers the World’s First Multi-Humanoid Robot Collaborative Training in Multi-Task, Multi-Scenario Settings at ZEEKR

SHENZHEN, China, March 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — UBTECH has successfully conducted the world’s first collaborative practical training program for humanoid robots at ZEEKR’s 5G Intelligent Factory, where multiple humanoid robots seamlessly collaborated across multi-task, multi-scenario industrial environments. This initiative represents a key advancement in developing a general-purpose Swarm Intelligence system for humanoid robots, marking a major leap from single-agent autonomy to Swarm Intelligence.


UBTECH Swarm Intelligence: The World’s First Multi-Humanoid Robot Collaboration Across Multiple Scenarios and Tasks

Swarm Intelligence: The Next Frontier in Humanoid Robotics

As industrial automation progresses, production-line tasks present new challenges for humanoid robots, particularly in multi-humanoid robot collaboration. Advancing Swarm Intelligence is a critical step in enabling humanoid robots to operate effectively at scale.

UBTECH’s Walker S1 humanoid robots are pioneering this shift by deploying a networked cluster to explore how advanced embodied intelligence emerges through swarm behaviors and high-frequency interaction with the physical environment. To support this, UBTECH has developed BrainNet, a software framework for humanoid robot collaboration, and introduced the Internet of Humanoids (IoH), a centralized control hub serving as a blueprint for the software and hardware implementation of Swarm Intelligence.

For humanoid robots to collaborate effectively, UBTECH’s BrainNet framework links cloud-device collaborative inference nodes and skill nodes, forming a super brain and an intelligent sub-brain within the Swarm Intelligence system. The super brain, powered by a large reasoning multimodal model, enables intelligent hybrid decision-making and manages complex production-line tasks. The intelligent sub-brain, based on the Transformer model, integrates cross-field fusion perception and multi-robot collaborative control to support parallel distributed learning, accelerating skill generation and transfer.

These innovations allow humanoid robots to move beyond individual task execution, enabling them to collaborate flexibly at the production-line level. This ensures efficient teamwork in complex industrial environments and paves the way for the next evolution of intelligent manufacturing.

To address the high-dimensional decision-making demands of complex production-line tasks, UBTECH has developed the world’s first large reasoning multimodal model for humanoid robots. As the core engine of the super brain, this AI system enables the continuous self-evolution of BrainNet, unlocking the full potential of Swarm Intelligence. Currently under development using DeepSeek-R1 deep reasoning technology, the model is being engineered to process data at scale and equip humanoid robots with human-like common-sense reasoning. It allows them to break down, schedule, and coordinate tasks autonomously, optimizing multi-robot collaboration in complex industrial workflows.

Tridentity, the flagship product of Trident, is an innovative and highly secure blockchain-based identity solution designed to provide secure single sign-on authentication capabilities to integrated third-party systems across various industries. Tridentity aims to offer unparalleled security features, ensuring the protection of sensitive information and preventing potential threats, thus promising a new secure era in the global digital landscape.

Trident will operate entirely on Tencent Cloud’s infrastructure and utilize products like Cloud Virtual Machine (CVM), TencentDB, EdgeOne, Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP), Cloud Load Balancer (CLB), Elastic IP (EIP), Tencent Kubernetes Engine (TKE), and Elasticsearch Service (ES).

By leveraging Tencent Cloud’s industry-leading infrastructure capabilities, Trident stands to fuel this expansion with proven, secure, and state-of-the-art technology.

Tencent Cloud Comprehensive Solutions Ensure Secure Experiences and Immersive Metaverse Interactions

To consistently meet tight campaign timelines and maximize the efficiency of a limited development team, Trident is prioritizing its application platform development. This focus necessitates a highly scalable, managed, and secure cloud infrastructure to support its business operations. Leveraging Tencent Cloud Blockchain as a Service (TBaaS) for the rapid deployment of the Tridentity blockchain in the cloud, Trident will ensure a fully scalable infrastructure capable of supporting swift business expansion, along with a comprehensive security suite to minimize operational risks.

Meanwhile, Tencent Cloud’s Metaverse-in-a-Box, a comprehensive, one-stop, and easy-to-use solution, will be instrumental in enabling Tridentity to deliver a seamless customer experience across various sectors in Southeast Asia.

By harnessing Tencent Cloud’s cutting-edge technologies, Trident has already successfully crafted large-scale, secure, and immersive real-time interactive experiences, culminating in an immersive online metaverse for its users. This was impressively demonstrated during the Singapore National Day Parade (NDP). As the Principal Partner for the Singapore NDP in 2024, Trident created a huge NDP metaverse, featuring various games and Singaporean landmarks. With Tencent Cloud’s support, Trident was able to scale out its cloud infrastructure in just three days, allowing thousands of players to enjoy the Trident metaverse on the day of the NDP.
