Pimax Technology has secured strategic financing from Zhiyuan Mifeng Technology, and the two parties will jointly promote the construction of embodied intelligence data infrastructure.
Recently, Pimax has secured strategic financing from Mifeng Technology, and the two parties have reached a strategic cooperation. Mifeng Technology is a physical AI data service platform incubated by Agibot, focusing on embodied intelligence data services, and promotes “mass public data collection” through its crowdsourcing platform “Mifeng Pai”.
Previously, Pimax has joined the “Honeycomb Data Co-Creation Initiative” jointly launched by Mifeng Technology, SEARI, the National Data Standardization Technical Committee, and CCID Research Institute of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and participated in the construction of the physical AI data ecosystem together with partners including Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center, Shanghai National Geospatial Information Center, Lingchu Intelligence, and Haitian Ruisheng.
Yao Maoqing, Chairman and CEO of Mifeng Technology, said: “The most scarce resource for the development of embodied intelligence is data. The difficulties in covering real scenarios, high collection costs and inconsistent quality all require more solid underlying technologies to solve. Pimax has accumulated ten years of experience in the field of spatial computing and is an important hardware partner in the Honeycomb Data Co-Creation Initiative. We are optimistic about Pimax’s layout in the AI direction, and look forward to in-depth collaboration between the two sides on data collection technologies to jointly expand and improve the embodied data business.”
The training data gap for VLA models and world models of embodied intelligence is a widely recognized consensus in the industry. Each model has different data requirements and iterates rapidly, which has become a core bottleneck in the current embodied data industry. From Pimax’s perspective, continuously recording human intentions and full-body movements in various scenarios with high fidelity is the “first principle” in the embodied data field. In this high-fidelity (HIFI) data, spatiotemporal alignment of multiple sampling frequencies collected by multiple sensors is the basic requirement, which is exactly the experience Pimax has precipitated through years of software and hardware development. At the same time, the precise human manipulation data in virtual spaces accumulated by Pimax in large immersive games will also become one of the important sources for world model training.
Ren Pan, CEO of Pimax, said: “Thanks to the recognition from Mifeng. What Pimax has accumulated over ten years is exactly the capability to enable machines to understand how humans interact with space. We will extend these capabilities to the AI field, and work with Mifeng to build a solid data foundation for embodied intelligence.”
Xu Kun, Partner of Investment Banking Business at China Renaissance, said: “Pimax’s ten years of precipitation in the spatial computing field is exactly an indispensable part of the current development of physical AI, embodied intelligence and world models. Pimax’s overall AI strategy that corresponds three types of glasses to three layers of models is highly forward-looking and has a broad market base. The next three years will be the breakout period for Pimax, and we are honored to participate in it as the exclusive financial advisor and long-term strategic advisor.”
