Wanxun Technology releases NOVA2.0 Flexible Embodied Brain: Tempered through scarce cross-industry extreme working conditions, embodied intelligence has crossed the watershed of open-world applications.
As a global leader in flexible embodied intelligence, Wanxun Technology recently officially launched its second-generation flexible embodied brain NOVA2.0 (Neuromorphic Omniversal Versatile Architecture), the world's first all-weather commercial delivery-grade embodied intelligence architecture for open worlds. Developed from and serving over 10 million multi-dimensional extreme working condition operations across more than 40 real industry scenarios, this architecture has won wide recognition from global customers for its cross-industry scenario migration, implementation capabilities and application value. It has built an extremely rare real-scene data flywheel, taken the lead in exploring the embodied intelligence technical route of "real scenarios, real demands, real data, real implementation" in the industry, and announced that embodied intelligence has crossed the watershed of open world applications.
Somatic Intelligence × Extreme Working Conditions: Breaking the Dilemma of Embodied Intelligence Implementation and Application in Open Worlds
At present, the evolution of embodied intelligence is moving from ideal environment demos or early commercial scenario POCs to extremely challenging real scenario implementation in open worlds. However, in the face of the real world full of massive ultra-high-frequency random disturbances, various mixed "dirty data" and harsh environmental challenges, robot systems are generally confronted with three major challenges: the conflict between long-link reasoning delay and high-frequency response, severe lack of multi-modal operation data in real scenarios, and insufficient reliability of the brain and ontology in commercial delivery environments.
To solve this dilemma, all parties in the industry have turned their attention to hierarchical control, real data acquisition and the enhancement of ontology adaptability and weather resistance. In this direction, Wanxun Technology has long seized the opportunity of technological evolution by relying on the disruptive innovation of its underlying general soft robot technology. The company draws the first-principle answer from 4 billion years of biological evolution in nature: "The natural coupling of flexible body and intelligence is the natural algorithm to deal with the high randomness of the physical world". With the technical concept of "Somatic AI", it has pioneered the flexible embodied intelligence architecture: relying on the natural physical perception ability and high self-adaptability of the soft robot's flexible body, it bionically replicates the "subconscious brain" of living organisms that do not overly rely on models and data.
At the same time, Wanxun Technology believes that the ultimate true generality of embodied intelligence essentially covers all massive multi-dimensional extreme and long-tail working conditions in the open world. Therefore, since its establishment, the company has focused on real commercial delivery, directly facing various challenges and tests of "extreme working conditions" such as complex, extreme, long-tail, special and unexpected states under the supply of real scenarios, real demands and real data, to ensure that both the brain and the ontology can achieve continuous and stable operation in massive deliveries in the open world, thus forging a flexible embodied intelligence architecture with real generalizable implementation capabilities and an extremely rare "data flywheel" in the real world.
Original Haptic Multi-Modal Hierarchical Architecture: Building the Low-Data, Ultra-Fast and Strong Generalization Advantages of NOVA2.0 Flexible Embodied Brain
Based on the concept of "Somatic AI", the original haptic multi-modal flexible embodied brain hierarchical architecture independently developed by Wanxun Technology uses subconscious multi-modal motion primitives for real-time trajectory generation and scenario adaptation, thus realizing three unique advantages of low data volume, ultra-high speed and strong generalization. Focusing on the bionic mechanism of "conscious task chain planning + subconscious motion primitive generation", original haptics and DAM (Dynamic Adaptive Modulation) act as a link, which naturally and deeply couples the intelligent features of NOVA2.0 flexible embodied brain including motion primitives, subconscious circuits, hierarchical hybrid, morphological computing and multi-modality, with the ontology capabilities of Pliabot® flexible body such as original flexible morphology, durable characteristic materials, ultra-high load-to-weight ratio, pneumatic control, original haptic perception and passive deformation. As a result, this architecture achieves a key breakthrough in scenario migration and implementation capabilities, and truly meets the all-weather commercial delivery requirements in open worlds.
Three Major Breakthroughs in Scenario Migration and Implementation Capabilities:
• Original "one brain for multiple forms": the same "brain" is naturally adapted to multiple ontology configurations such as muscle joints, flexible single arms, flexible dual arms, flexible dexterous hands/androids and their corresponding task requirements;
• 1B+ massive dynamic parameter combinations: relying on 20+ dimensional "subconscious motion space" to realize ultra-large-scale dynamic parameter combinations and calmly cope with sudden drastic working conditions;
• 20ms ultra-fast trajectory generation: high-frequency mutations in the open world do not require heavy reasoning, which can achieve millisecond-level trajectory generation and dynamic correction significantly better than conventional large models, and is especially competent for zero-tolerance operation under irreversible working conditions.
Ten All-Weather Commercial Delivery Advantages:
• [Real-time Adaptability] Real-time adaptability to highly dynamic tasks, ensuring high success rate under massive disturbances;

• [Ultimate Safety] Original collision safety, native human-robot interaction safety guarantee;
• [Long-term Durability] Long-term stable operation and low maintenance, meeting commercial durability requirements;
• [Low Power Consumption and Ultra-Lightweight] Ultimate lightweight, ultra-high load-to-weight ratio and low power consumption, easy to use;
• [Original Flexibility] Original flexible materials and bionic multi-degree of freedom, inherently flexible.
Extremely Rare "Real Scenario, Real Demand, Real Data" Extreme Working Conditions: Tempering All-Weather Implementation Capabilities and Data Flywheel
Starting from the first-generation version that has been polished for a long time in closed state, NOVA2.0 flexible embodied brain not only focuses on building core advantages of implementation and application with underlying technological innovation, but also attaches great importance to capability verification, polishing and iteration in real delivery, especially in extreme working conditions. At present, it has been generalized and applied to more than 10 million multi-dimensional extreme working condition operations in over 40 real industry scenarios covering real estate construction, power energy, transportation, intelligent driving, industrial manufacturing and other fields. It has fully verified and accumulated a large number of extreme and long-tail cases from the three dimensions of "three extremes": extreme tasks, extreme environments and extreme data, which not only forges a proven, truly implementable all-weather commercial delivery capability, but also accumulates extremely scarce and unreplicable high-value real data in the industry, and builds an effective data flywheel based on 100% real data:
• Extreme tasks: including strict requirements such as ensuring 100% operation interaction safety, withstanding differentiated usage challenges from more than 1000 real users per single device, 200 times/second high-frequency operation disturbance, meeting 24×7 continuous operation throughout the year, over 3 million cumulative operations and ultra-high delivery success rate of 99.9%+, achieving more than 5 times verifiable efficiency improvement and nearly 100% customer satisfaction, etc., and has jointly created many benchmark cases with leading customers in various industries;
• Extreme environments: both the ontology and the brain can operate normally from 0 Lux zero illumination to 100,000 Lux strong sunlight peak, work continuously from -40℃ extremely cold ice and snow to 60℃ high temperature and heat, run stably at low pressure on the snow-covered plateau at an altitude of 5190 meters, resist strong electromagnetic interference from 110kV high-voltage power grid, withstand 61km/h strong wind and heavy rain, or meet Class 100 high cleanliness requirements, etc.;
• Extreme data: Under the realistic challenge of "data hunger" where real data is generally difficult to obtain, relying on the massive reusable skills existing in the motion primitive library, with the starting data volume as low as only 1% of the conventional amount, and only carrying out limited data-driven parameter training for scenario increments, it can quickly realize the generalization of new scenarios and tasks and immediately put into normal operations, and achieve continuous learning and evolution with 100% real data in subsequent operations.
