A Chinese company, Zibianliang Robot, has demonstrated a new embodied AI system that significantly outperforms Figure AI in logistics tasks. Their system, powered by the WALL-B world unified model, achieved a sorting efficiency of 1816 packages per hour, surpassing Figure AI's record by over 45%. Notably, this was accomplished using a dual-arm gripper setup that costs 70% less than Figure AI's humanoid robot with a five-finger hand, highlighting a more cost-effective and scalable approach to embodied AI.
