Linggan Robotics Raises Tens of Millions Yuan in Angel Round for Physical AI Contact Intelligence

Linggan Robotics, a Chinese startup focused on physical AI contact intelligence, has completed an angel funding round of tens of millions of yuan, according to a report by Leaderobot. The company is developing technologies that enable robots to sense, control, and adapt during physical contact with objects and environments—an area seen as critical for embodied AI and dexterous manipulation. The financing is expected to support research and development, product iteration, and team expansion. The report did not disclose the investors, but the round highlights growing interest in physical AI, where contact-rich tasks remain a major challenge for robotics. Linggan Robotics says it aims to advance contact intelligence as a core capability for next-generation robots. The deal marks another recent bet on embodied intelligence startups in China.
