X Square Robot Unveils New Embodied AI Model, Says Robots Will Arrive in Homes in 35 Days

Published

on

By

Backed by Alibaba, ByteDance, Xiaomi and Meituan, X Square Robot unveiled a next-generation embodied AI foundation model for home robots and said its first deployments in everyday households will begin within 35 days.

BEIJING, April 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — X Square Robot on Tuesday unveiled Wall-B, a new embodied AI foundation model designed for deployment in real-world homes, marking what the company described as a major step toward bringing general-purpose robots into daily family life.

At a launch event themed “Born to Bot, Bot to Family,” the company also introduced its World Unified Model (WUM) architecture, a training framework that combines vision, language, action and physical prediction within a single system from the outset. X Square said the model is intended to help robots operate in the far more unpredictable setting of a home, where tasks, layouts and interactions vary from moment to moment.

“Robots in factories and robots in homes are fundamentally different,” said Qian Wang, founder and CEO of X Square Robot. “In factories, they repeat the same action 10,000 times. In a home, they may need to perform 10,000 different actions, each in a different context. The real challenge is not repetition, but whether a robot can execute new, untrained actions in an unstructured environment.”

Wall-B is the company’s first full implementation of its World Unified Model architecture. Unlike modular systems that train perception, language and control separately, X Square Robot said World Unified Model optimizes those capabilities jointly from the very beginning. The company said that allows physical prediction — including force, friction and collision dynamics — to emerge as part of the model itself, rather than being layered on afterward.

“We train vision, language, action and prediction in the same network from day one,” said Wang Hao, chief technology officer of X Square. “Human infants do not learn to see, move and communicate in isolated stages. They learn by integrating perception and action at the same time, with constant feedback from the physical world. That is the principle behind our architecture.”

X Square Robot said the model was built on two core foundations. The first is a data strategy centered on real, non-staged home environments, aimed at exposing the system to the long tail of household scenarios — misplaced objects, temporary occlusion, unexpected obstacles and spontaneous human activity. The second is a physics-aware predictive mechanism that enables the robot to anticipate physical outcomes before taking action, rather than merely reacting after contact occurs.

Together, those elements are meant to narrow one of robotics’ hardest gaps: moving from controlled demos to reliable performance in live environments. The company said its work on physical robotic platforms has helped it accumulate practical experience in bridging simulation and reality across diverse operating conditions.

At the event, X Square demonstrated a series of live tasks. In one experience zone, a robot arranged flowers while adjusting its grip and motion in real time as stems shifted position under visual occlusion. The task was completed without pre-set trajectories, according to the company, and drew attention from both domestic and international media attending the event.

Even so, X Square acknowledged that the technology remains early. Wang said current systems can make mistakes that require remote intervention — such as placing slippers in the kitchen or pausing mid-task to process the next action. But he said the robots’ ability to operate continuously and generate new real-world data around the clock gives the system a path to rapid improvement.

That learning loop is central to the company’s next milestone: within 35 days, X Square plans to place its robots into everyday homes, underscoring the company’s long-term commitment to the home robotics sector.

Manhattan Associates Announces Latest Enhancements for Retailers

Published

By

SYDNEY, April 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Manhattan Associates (NASDAQ: MANH), the global leader in supply chain commerce with unmatched AI capabilities, today announced major enhancements to Manhattan Active® Omni. These innovations are designed to help retailers maximise in-store and online sales while delivering best-in-class customer experiences across all touchpoints. New capabilities include embedded agentic AI for store associates and customer service teams, real-time sales, and fulfilment insights delivered natively within the user experience, and brand-new capabilities focused on maximising both revenue and profit when shipping from stores.

Manhattan announced commercial availability of three new AI agents, a Store Associate Agent, a Contact Centre Agent, and an OMS Configuration Agent, all available within the Manhattan Active Omni user interface, to support retailers’ selling and service teams. Using a natural language interface, these agents deliver immediate, actionable insights into store activity, sales trends, inventory, returns, and customer behaviour, helping associates and customer service teams resolve issues faster and provide more personalised support.

“Retailers are under constant pressure to move faster, operate smarter, and deliver seamless experiences across every touchpoint,” said Brian Kinsella, SVP of Product Management at Manhattan Associates. “Our latest updates reflect Manhattan’s ongoing commitment to delivering cutting edge artificial intelligence within our applications. Whether it’s the myriad machine learning algorithms present for years or our new Agentic AI and Fulfilment Simulation capabilities, we’ve long believed true AI needs to live within rather than alongside our applications. We’re proud to partner with a number of world class retailers on the design and development of these breakthrough technologies.”

Along with the newly announced agentic AI innovations, Manhattan Active® Point of Sale continues to advance with Customer Facing Display, a powerful new enhancement that brings shoppers into the checkout experience. Customers can view their cart in real time, attach their loyalty information to a transaction, enter shipping details, and choose how they’d like to receive their receipt, all from a dedicated display. Retailers can also capture additional customer input, ensuring greater accuracy and faster transactions at the point of sale, bridging the gap between associates and shoppers, and delivering a smoother, more engaging checkout experience.

Additionally, the Fulfilment Optimisation Simulation engine enables enterprises to model and compare alternative fulfilment strategies by balancing cost, speed, service level, and margin. It provides data-driven insights into split shipments, total fulfilment costs, location-level distribution, and key KPIs using a consistent set of orders for each strategy. Users can easily adjust optimisation rules, rerun simulations, and compare results side-by-side to understand the true impact of each change. The engine also supports “what if” scenario planning – allowing teams to anticipate constraints, evaluate operational shifts, and analyse trade-offs in a fully self-serve manner. By replaying historical or selected orders, businesses can continuously optimise fulfilment, uncover new savings, and drive meaningful performance improvements.

Together, these innovations reflect Manhattan’s continued focus on delivering practical, enterprise-ready advancements that help retailers move faster and operate with greater confidence.
