/PRZWT/Recently, the International Artificial Intelligence Sanitation Robot Competition, hosted by the Shenzhen Municipal Government, came to a successful conclusion. COOWA Technology, relying on its technological accumulation and application advantages in the field of "Physical AI", In 115 practical competitions, they stood out and swept all the event championships - not only did they win the first place in the park and square track, auxiliary road track, and sidewalk non-motorized vehicle lane track of the special competitions, but they also took the lead in the scene innovation competition and application innovation competition, successfully achieving a "grand slam" of events and successfully defending their titles. As the only "all-element" artificial intelligence environmental sanitation robot competition platform in the country, this competition has gathered over 40 industry enterprises, focusing on the core pain points and technological innovation directions in the environmental sanitation field. It fully showcases the hard-core strength of the participating enterprises and equipment, and builds a benchmark model of "promoting research and application through competition" for the global environmental sanitation robot industry.
This milestone moment not only received authoritative industry certification but also was deeply focused and reported by CCTV News. Through the interactive form of "studio dialogue + factory visit", CCTV presented to the national audience in a panoramic way how Kuwa Technology solved the governance problems of megacities with "champion technology", vividly interpreting the core logic that "technology application equals value".
Event highlights: The technical hard power behind the consecutive victories, Physical AI becomes the key to breaking the deadlock
In this competition, Kuwa Technology demonstrated its leap from "functional robots" to "general intelligent robots", and its core winning formula is precisely based on the Physical AI capability.
The physical AI algorithm system can understand the physical world just like a human. It not only achieves a deep understanding of unstructured environments, predicts the future trajectories of dynamic obstacles (such as pedestrians and vehicles shuttling through), but also conducts games in real scenarios. In the "Obstacle Avoidance in Complex Road Conditions" and "Dynamic Garbage Tracking and Cleaning" events, the Kuwa robot demonstrated the unity of movement (Drive) and operation (Work). Robots no longer follow a rigid route but make real-time decisions based on the distribution of garbage and the environment - when to stop high-pressure flushing, when to detour, and when to adjust the Angle of the cleaning device. They demonstrate extremely high intelligent coordination in multi-machine collaborative scheduling.
Kuwa Technology's successful defense of its title in the competition is not only a successful maintenance of its championship position but also a crucial leap in the technological generation. Compared with the previous competition plans, this year Kuwa highlighted its core leading capabilities in the field of "intelligent grading of sanitation robots" - deployment without diagrams and ready-to-use out of the box. This technology does not require the pre-collection of high-precision maps or the manual formulation of cumbersome operation scripts. AI can directly generate adaptation plans independently based on the on-site environment, achieving an exponential improvement in scene adaptation efficiency.
The consecutive two years of championship performance have gradually made Kuwa's core technical indicators the de facto standards in the industry. Its technical routes of "de-high-precision mapping" and "end-to-end decision-making" have become the core prerequisites for the large-scale deployment of unmanned sanitation products, providing a reusable practical model for the application of industry technology.
CCTV Collaboration: Studio dialogue + factory live broadcast, presenting brand strength in a three-dimensional way
CCTV News, through all-round visual language, has revealed the full-chain strength of Kuwa Technology from "underlying algorithms" to "mass production manufacturing".
In the CCTV studio, Wang Yu, the executive president of Kuwa Technology (Shenzhen), deeply interpreted the technical philosophy behind the "consecutive championship". Wang Yu stated that the original intention of Kuwa in choosing to develop sanitation robots was "to start with the end in mind", and the ultimate goal was to achieve universal Physical AI. Today's robots are no longer simple automated devices but intelligent entities with a complete closed loop of "perception, memory, decision-making and execution". The implementation data in places like Futian and Longgang in Shenzhen show that this advanced AI capability has significantly enhanced operational efficiency and effectively reduced the overall operating costs. The interview also revealed that with its profound technological accumulation and development potential, Kuwa will continue to focus on the "urban general AI robot" track and plans to prioritize the expansion of multiple overseas core markets in 2026, promoting "Made in China" to the world.
The camera switched to the Kuwa Yongkang Super Factory, where the audience in the live stream witnessed with their own eyes the birth process of the champion product - the "Unicorn" series of robots. The live broadcast demonstrated the precise production process of the core components of the champion product. The factory manager said, "This is not only a manufacturing center but also an important part of the data flywheel." Every unicorn robot that comes off the production line is equipped with an end-to-end model that has undergone extensive simulation and real-world scenario training." As the live broadcast was coming to an end, the relevant person in charge stated that the annual production capacity of the smart factory is sufficient to support coverage in over 50 cities and regions both at home and abroad, fully demonstrating that Kuwa has established a complete closed loop of "cutting-edge technology - large-scale production - commercial application".
Practical value: Technology can be used to support urban governance, and the Shenzhen experience is replicable
The ultimate destination of champion technology is to serve the people's livelihood. Kuwa Technology has taken Shenzhen as the best "training ground" for Physical AI and explored a set of replicable experiences in smart city governance.
In places like Henggang Sub-district and Shijing Sub-district in Longgang District, Shenzhen, Kuwa robots have been deployed on a regular basis. Relying on its self-supervised learning ability, the robot can adapt to the complex "urban village" scenarios in Shenzhen. The monthly automatic operation mileage has repeatedly set new records, significantly improving the timeliness rate of garbage collection. In addition, in response to the characteristics of Shenzhen such as dense crowds and complex road conditions, Kuwa Technology has developed the "nighttime low-light operation" and "Narrow alley shuttle" modes by using VLM(Visual Language Model) as a strategic guide. The robot can understand the rules of the "artificial world" such as traffic lights and warning lines, and has achieved all-weather operation under the premise of ensuring safety, which has been highly recognized by the urban management department.
At present, Kuwa has reached cooperation agreements with over 50 cities and regions including Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Hangzhou and Chengdu. Shenzhen's "map-free" champion solution, as the standard version, has greatly lowered the threshold for off-site deployment and is expected to cover more cities by 2026. Kuwa's solution perfectly aligns with the policy orientation of "new quality productivity" and "smart city". The model it has explored in places like Wuhu has been selected as an "Outstanding Case of Digital Government Construction" by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, demonstrating that this model has extremely strong national promotion value.
With the end in mind and the champion as the starting point, we aim to be a leading provider of urban AI robots in the industry
Winning the championship consecutively and being the focus of CCTV marks that Kuwa Technology has moved from merely "technological leadership" to comprehensive "brand leadership".
In the future, Kuwa Technology will continue to adhere to the technical route of "taking the world model as the foundation and the multimodal large language model as a supplement", relying on the strong production capacity of its self-built production line to accelerate the mass production and delivery of champion products. Meanwhile, Kuwa will take Physical AI as the core, continuously expand more urban service scenarios such as municipal maintenance and emergency rescue, and strive to become an enabler of global smart city governance upgrades, making Physical AI truly serve the better life of humanity.
