Jingwei Hengrun Explores Robotics, Starts Customer Cooperation on Embodied AI
Jingwei Hengrun (688326.SH) said during a Nov. 9 investor research session that it is closely monitoring advances in foundation models and embodied intelligence. The company is working with customer demand in mind to explore how capabilities developed in the automotive sector—systems engineering, simulation and testing, and control technologies—can be extended to robotics. Jingwei Hengrun also disclosed that it has begun robot-related cooperation with some customers, but it did not detail project scope, financial terms, deployment timelines or the identities of those customers. The company did not specify target robot platforms or commercialization schedules. The disclosure points to a wider push by automotive suppliers to reuse engineering know-how in embodied AI and robotics. Jingwei Hengrun framed the work as exploratory and customer-driven, indicating early-stage efforts rather than a fully defined product strategy.
