What they make

ProcessesGears, Motors & actuators, Sensors & lidar, Wireless modules (read from their description)
CapabilitiesThree core incubation domains — (1) core robotics components (reducers/gearboxes, sensors, actuators, controllers, OS); (2) robot systems (industrial robots, smart devices, service robots); (3) industry applications (Industry 4.0, agriculture, smart home/city, autonomous driving/connected vehicles). Runs the "Shared Factory" (共享工厂, see companion entry) manufacturing service, plus an in-house fund (XBOT PARK Fund, formerly the HKUST-linked Clear Water Bay venture fund) co-investing alongside Sequoia China and Hillhouse from exploration through seed stage
