X Square Robot showcases cheaper, faster embodied AI with new learning framework

X Square Robot has unveiled advancements in embodied AI, showcasing its WALL-B system that outperformed Figure 03 in parcel sorting by 45% while costing 70% less. Additionally, the company open-sourced HOST, a framework enabling humanoid robots to learn new skills from brief video demonstrations in as little as 29 seconds, achieving a 62% success rate. This approach shifts embodied AI training from lengthy offline processes to rapid, on-the-fly imitation. AI

IMPACT Accelerates embodied AI development by enabling rapid skill acquisition and reducing hardware costs.
