South Korean robot company XYZ and Chinese robot company GALAXEA have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on August 24 to collaborate on robot applications. The partnership aims to develop robot applications tailored for the Korean industrial environment by combining XYZ's robot intelligence framework 'BrainX' with GALAXEA's robot hardware.

GALAXEA supplies the hardware, while XYZ focuses on practical software optimization and technology verification. The companies intend to explore specific task-centric applications, such as retail store automation, clothing folding, and factory operations. They also plan to enhance the robot's learning and performance capabilities using real data gathered from work sites.

Previously, XYZ tested the integration of BrainX with GALAXEA's 'R1 Lite' hardware, achieving a notable speed improvement compared to NVIDIA's foundation model 'GR00T 1.6' in clothing folding tasks. XYZ's CEO, Hwang Sung-jae, emphasized the company's commitment to creating purpose-built models for specific tasks, rather than relying on general-purpose models, and expressed their intention to apply their accumulated intelligence design technology across various hardware platforms.
