A humanoid robot data training center in Beijing is set to commence its third phase of tactile sensing learning by robots by the end of March, focusing on enabling robots to operate in real-world scenarios across multiple sectors, including industrial production, agricultural processing, hotel services, household cleaning, smart home management, and medical procedures.
Covering over 10,000 square meters, the training center in western Beijing's Shijingshan District is the largest facility of its kind in China, functioning as a "school" where robots undergo scenario-based learning before deployment.
At the center, numerous robots are learning how to touch. A single robotic arm can generate thousands of data per second, including tactile and visual data.
"Our robots can detect a force of 0.01 Newtons, similar to the force of a strand of hair falling onto our fingers. With this control over force, they can perform all sorts of precise and complex operations," said Dong Jianqiang, head of the Training Center with Beijing Tashan Technology Co., Ltd., a leading developer of AI tactile sensing chips and application solutions.
The first phase was completed and put into operation at the end of March 2025, with the deployment of 100 wheeled robotic arms in the Shougang Park in the district.
The second phase saw the deployment of 100 humanoid robots across multiple scenarios including industrial, household, and daily work applications, operating approximately 10 hours per day and generating 6 million valid data entries every year, placing it at a globally leading level.
