From July 26 to 28, Shanghai on the Chinese mainland transforms into a hub for the latest breakthroughs in embodied AI at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) 2025. Among dozens of innovators, PsiBot 6 a rising leader in embodied intelligence 6 is capturing headlines with two robot stars: a mahjong-playing companion and an autonomous food-delivery courier.
These robots highlight how embodied AI is moving beyond simulations to real-world applications. PsiBot’s mahjong-playing robot demonstrates its advanced VLA large model and dexterous manipulation algorithms by picking, placing, and strategizing tiles in a human-like display of skill. Meanwhile, the food-delivery robot navigates crowded spaces, avoiding obstacles to deliver meals with precision and speed.
A full-stack showcase of innovation
- Psi R1: a hierarchical end-to-end VLA model powering context-aware decision-making
- PsiBot H1: a high-degree-of-freedom dexterous hand designed for delicate tasks
- A full-body humanoid robot built for versatile roles, from retail to entertainment
- Teleoperation systems that let operators control robots in remote or hazardous environments
This lineup illustrates PsiBot’s end-to-end prowess 6 from data and algorithms to hardware design and real-world deployment. Their exhibition underlines a broader trend: embodied AI is poised to reshape industries, from smart logistics and manufacturing to interactive entertainment.
For young professionals, entrepreneurs, and digital nomads, these innovations signal exciting career and travel experiences: imagine staying at a futuristic hotel staffed by AI concierges or ordering street food via autonomous couriers in global cities. As embodied AI continues to evolve, its impact will ripple across business, culture, and daily life worldwide.
