en.Wedoany.com Reported - On May 18, 2026, Guangdong OPT Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. (OPT) and Shenzhen Dobot Technology Co., Ltd. officially signed a strategic cooperation agreement. OPT CEO Luo Qian and Dobot Founder and CEO Liu Peichao signed on behalf of both parties, with OPT Chairman Lu Shenglin and Dobot Co-founder Liu Zhufu in attendance. Leveraging OPT's full-stack machine vision technology capabilities and Dobot's "One Brain, Multiple Bodies" embodied intelligence platform, the two sides will jointly develop "hand-eye-brain integrated" embodied industrial solutions, accelerating the large-scale application of embodied intelligence in industrial manufacturing scenarios.
As visual sensing technology deeply integrates with robot bodies, the future of industrial intelligent manufacturing is being redefined. China's manufacturing industry is advancing from "automation" to "intelligence," with industrial embodied intelligence becoming the core engine driving high-quality development.
As a leading machine vision enterprise, OPT possesses a complete perception product matrix including 2D/3D vision, smart cameras, code readers, and industrial sensors, along with the SmartWorks full-function vision platform, enabling seamless interconnection with robot bodies and connecting the entire perception-decision-execution chain. OPT has over 2,000 full-stack technical engineers, has implemented more than 67,000 projects across over 30 industries, and has accumulated over 100 billion industrial vision data points. Dobot has deployed over 100,000 robots globally, ranked first worldwide in shipment volume in 2025, serves over 80 Fortune 500 companies, and covers more than 100 countries and regions. Dobot has built the "One Brain, Multiple Bodies" embodied intelligence platform, featuring its self-developed Kongyi VLA large model as the "brain," a high-precision full-body force control system as the "cerebellum," and a full range of robot forms as the "multiple bodies," achieving the integration of omnidirectional mobility and precision manipulation.
The cooperation between the two parties revolves around four dimensions: product integration, technological breakthroughs, scenario implementation, and ecosystem co-construction. In terms of product integration, Dobot's full range of embodied robots will serve as carriers, integrating OPT's vision components and perception solutions to form standardized combined products. For technological breakthroughs, they will jointly develop environmental perception and dexterous manipulation technologies for industrial humanoid robots, tackling the challenges of precise control in complex scenarios. Regarding scenario implementation, they will build smart factory demonstration models around processes such as sorting, logistics, loading/unloading, and quality inspection. In ecosystem co-construction, they will integrate Dobot's data collection platform with OPT's vision data capabilities to build an industrial embodied intelligence dataset.
At the signing ceremony, Luo Qian stated: "The deep integration of machine vision and robotics is a key prerequisite for embodied intelligence to enter real production lines. Both parties will collaborate comprehensively to create industry-leading 'hand-eye-brain' integrated embodied industrial solutions, empowering the upgrade of China's intelligent manufacturing." Liu Peichao emphasized: "Dobot continues to build the 'One Brain, Multiple Bodies' platform, achieving multi-form, multi-process large-scale adaptation in scenarios such as automotive polishing and 3C precision manufacturing. OPT's profound accumulation in the machine vision field highly complements Dobot, and this strategic cooperation will accelerate the application and implementation of embodied intelligence on the manufacturing floor."
Embodied intelligence is listed as one of the six future industries in the national "15th Five-Year Plan" outline. According to forecasts, China's embodied intelligence industry market size is expected to reach 400 billion yuan by 2030 and surpass one trillion yuan by 2035, with an average annual growth rate exceeding 50%. In high-end manufacturing sectors such as 3C electronics, automotive, and new energy, there is an urgent demand for flexible production and ultimate precision. The cooperation between OPT and Dobot will effectively enhance the flexible manufacturing capabilities of production lines, simplify manual operation processes, optimize quality control standards, and help manufacturing enterprises reduce costs, increase efficiency, and improve product quality.
Both companies stated they will respond to the national strategy with pragmatic innovation, continuously deepen collaboration, accelerate the large-scale application of industrial embodied intelligence, and drive China's manufacturing towards high-end and intelligent development.
