On April 16, MINIEYE (02431) announced a collaboration with HONOR. The partnership will leverage autonomous logistics vehicles and robots to explore practical applications in vertical scenarios such as industrial manufacturing logistics and last-mile delivery, aiming to construct a fully unmanned logistics loop integrating "autonomous vehicles + robots."
Through this collaboration, MINIEYE and HONOR will fully utilize their respective strengths in technological R&D, mass production experience, and ecosystem development. The focus will be on the synergistic application of unmanned logistics vehicles and robots to create a seamless, end-to-end unmanned logistics chain, from warehouse sorting to final delivery. This initiative is expected to provide a new paradigm for the deep integration of autonomous driving and robotics, thereby supporting industrial transformation and upgrading.
MINIEYE stated that autonomous logistics vehicles and robots complement each other perfectly, with their capabilities forming an ideal match. Logistics vehicles excel at long-distance travel on open roads and can adapt to complex weather conditions, while robots are suited for narrow spaces, irregular environments, and indoor manual operation settings. The integration of these two technologies enables seamless connectivity between indoor and outdoor spaces, facilitating cross-regional transportation and extending operational reach from the "last kilometer" to the "last 10 meters."
Currently, the global embodied AI market is on the verge of explosive growth. The deep integration of large models and end-to-end technology is expanding the capabilities of robots, while the spillover effects of automotive intelligent technology are becoming increasingly apparent. Developing robots requires overcoming multiple technical challenges in perception, decision-making, planning, and control, which share a high degree of commonality with autonomous driving technology. The cross-industry application of these technologies in robotics has become a consensus within the industry.
As an autonomous driving company that has pioneered the commercial application of L2+ technology in the L4 domain, MINIEYE already serves over 40 global OEMs. Its unmanned vehicle business is also entering a phase of rapid development. The company's self-developed XiaoZhu autonomous vehicle has been deployed in 18 cities, including Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and Changsha, effectively serving diverse scenarios such as express delivery, urban distribution, and commercial supermarkets. The collaboration scale has exceeded 7,000 units, and the business has successfully expanded overseas.
HONOR, as a globally leading smart device brand, possesses significant advantages in technological innovation, ecosystem development, and market strategy. The powerful alliance between the two companies is expected to inject new momentum into the development of unmanned vehicles and the embodied AI industry.
By deepening its expertise in autonomous driving solutions vertically and expanding into new business areas like unmanned vehicles horizontally, MINIEYE is steadily enhancing its industry competitiveness and influence. The collaboration with HONOR in the fields of unmanned vehicles and robotics represents an innovative strategic move by MINIEYE, based on its own strengths and aligned with market demands. Leveraging the high growth potential of the unmanned vehicle and embodied AI sectors, the company is poised to continue unleashing its technological potential, opening up greater possibilities for future development.
Looking ahead, MINIEYE will build upon its full-stack technology and mass production experience to collaborate with HONOR and other partners, expanding the application boundaries of unmanned vehicles and embodied AI to jointly create an AI future full of limitless possibilities.
