In a factory workshop in Hunan Xiangjiang New Area, rows of robots are busy on the production line. On the assembly line, robotic arms move like agile hands, easily grasping, rotating, and installing various parts… With the sound of machinery starting up, each of their movements is precise and efficient, ensuring a seamless production process.
Behind these seemingly simple actions lies complex algorithms and a wealth of data support. How can machine vision technology become the ‘smart eyes’ of mobile robots? The answer can be found at Hunan Ruitu Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as ‘Ruitu Intelligent’).
01Scene is King, Unlimited Possibilities of AI Applications
Walking into Ruitu Intelligent, the faces of young people are filled with endless passion and exploration for technology and the future. General Manager Zhou Bowen and his team, under the guidance of their mentor Academician Wang Yaonan, consistently adhere to independent innovation, delving deep into research and development and application of core technologies such as deep learning algorithms and large models, striving to reach an internationally advanced level in machine vision and intelligent robotics.
Amid the trend of artificial intelligence empowering the digital transformation of traditional industries, Ruitu Intelligent has successfully developed four core technologies independently: Resense intelligent edge terminal, AIVI visual algorithm software platform, RBS mobile robot intelligent controller, and IMLM industrial multimodal large model middleware, along the path of continuous innovation in deep algorithms, accumulation of industrial big data, and in-depth industrial applications.These technologies not only enhance production efficiency and operational management effectiveness but also shine in various industries such as petrochemicals, energy, tobacco, and logistics, demonstrating the powerful application potential of AI technology and effectively helping enterprises achieve simultaneous improvement in production efficiency and operational management effectiveness.
Ruitu Intelligent’s technology applied in the intelligent manufacturing industry.When discussing the deep applications of artificial intelligence and robotics, Zhou Bowen shared a vivid example with reporters. In an upgrade and transformation project for an industrial production line, by introducing Ruitu Intelligent’s machine vision technology, not only was full automation of the production line achieved, but data analysis also optimized the production process, improving product quality and production efficiency.“In the field of in-plant logistics, traditional goods sorting methods are inefficient and prone to errors. Therefore, we independently developed a six-sided information reading system that can comprehensively and accurately read goods information and detect defects in real-time, equivalent to reading the ‘ID card’ of the goods. When items enter the system, it starts recognition, automatically scanning the information on the goods from multiple sides, and then uploads the data to the backend, which not only improves processing and sorting speed but also reduces labor and operational costs, minimizing error rates,” Zhou Bowen explained.Currently, the six-sided information reading system has been applied in the sorting stages of transshipment centers and warehouses for industrial logistics, pharmaceutical logistics, express logistics, and tobacco logistics, assisting logistics companies in their automation and information upgrades, enhancing overall digital and intelligent levels.
The application site of the six-sided information reading system on the logistics production line.In addition, targeting several major scenarios in logistics, energy mining, and tobacco fields, Ruitu Intelligent has developed a series of intelligent robots, including loading and unloading robots, transfer robots, inspection robots, and unmanned mining trucks, which, while releasing some labor, meet the industry’s demands for efficient, precise, and safe operations.Besides technological innovation, Ruitu Intelligent has also open-sourced core technologies such as machine vision and intelligent robotics, collaborating with domestic research institutions and universities to establish over 100 innovation laboratories for artificial intelligence, machine vision, and intelligent robotics, not only providing a large number of outstanding talents to the industry but also strongly promoting the healthy development and technological dissemination of the industry.02Breakthrough Innovation, Co-creating a New Chapter in the Digital EconomyOver the past eleven years, the Yuelu Summit has witnessed the rise of the internet industry in Xiangjiang New Area and attracted a large number of Hunan businessmen to return home for development.Zhou Bowen, a graduate from Hunan University, is a postdoctoral fellow from Tsinghua University. In 2016, he returned to Hunan with his entrepreneurial team. Having started from the internet industry, he vividly remembers the early days of the internet industry, which was a vast blue ocean full of infinite possibilities, leading every entrepreneur in the new area to continue moving forward. Eight years later, under Zhou Bowen’s leadership, the team focuses on three major fields: ‘AI + Intelligent Manufacturing’, ‘AI + Safe Production’, and ‘AI + Talent Cultivation’, dedicated to the research and development of key core technologies. They have applied for and authorized over 180 intellectual properties, holding independent and complete rights over core technology products.A relevant person in charge of Ruitu Intelligent told reporters that the team is currently focused on developing multimodal large model middleware, a technology that allows different large models to collaborate in processing complex tasks, significantly enhancing the task execution capabilities of robots and promoting the application of large model technology in specific industries.At the same time, following the successful launch of six-axis robots, the team will focus on developing humanoid robots with seven-axis arms, designed to mimic human forms and flexibly adapt to various application scenarios. This humanoid robot will integrate embodied large models in the future, enabling it to interpret language, recognize patterns, perform actions, and generate code, breaking more barriers in key core technologies of autonomous and controllable robots.
Ruitu Intelligent engineers discuss technology for humanoid robots.Today, Xiangjiang New Area has formed a cluster advantage in emerging industries such as artificial intelligence, intelligent networking, and new materials, with a complete industrial chain and a high-quality business environment, providing broad development space for local enterprises like Ruitu Intelligent.“The Yuelu Summit, with its profound cultural heritage, forward-looking agenda, and open communication methods, gathers numerous top scholars, industry leaders, and innovation pioneers from home and abroad. Every time I attend, I deeply feel that technology is reshaping every corner of the socio-economic landscape in unprecedented ways,” Zhou Bowen said.This year’s Yuelu Summit, Ruitu Intelligent hopes to join hands with partners from all walks of life, using innovation as wings and talent as a foundation, to jointly explore the infinite possibilities in the fields of AI + intelligent manufacturing and AI + talent cultivation, embarking on this ‘new decade agreement’ together, to create a new blueprint for the artificial intelligence and digital economy industries.Looking to the future, with the guidance and support of policies in the new area, Ruitu Intelligent will continue to delve into the artificial intelligence industry, accelerate the promotion of intelligent transformation, and help Xiangjiang New Area become a new high ground for the digital economy and intelligent industries.
