Simulation-trained embodied AI for reliable robot manipulation
Sudo AI (also known as Shanghai Sudo Technology / 苏度科技) builds embodied AI and robot systems focused on reliable physical manipulation. Its #sudo R1 system combines self-developed hardware and software with a manipulation-centric foundation model trained on simulation data alone, targeting generalizable picking and related skills for manufacturing, logistics, and other physical settings. The company publicly announced a late-stage round exceeding RMB 1 billion (about US$149 million) with Xiaomi among reinvesting shareholders.
