X Square Robot showcases the Power of “One Model, Many Applications” at WRC 2026

Published

on

By

Highlighting the breadth of what WALL-B can enable and the depth of performance it can sustain in the physical world.

BEIJING, Aug. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — X Square Robot, a Shenzhen-based embodied AI company, concluded its participation at the 2026 World Robot Conference (WRC) in Beijing, putting its “one model, many applications” approach to practice across multiple robotic platforms and real-world tasks. Powered by WALL-B, the company brought this approach into a range of physical environments, while extending its first logistics livestream on Aug 12 into a five-hour challenge during WRC.

At the conference, X Square showcased its WALL-B technology across several robotic platforms. In a home environment, two wheeled humanoid robots responded to spoken commands. It performed tasks including organizing household items, retrieving and delivering objects, cleaning, watering plants and handling pet-related chores. Using coordinated two-arm manipulation and obstacle avoidance, the robot moved between rooms and carried out the requested tasks.

The exhibition demonstration formed part of X Square’s broader effort to deploy robots in real homes. In March, the company partnered with Chinese local-services platform 58.com to launch a home-cleaning service, with robots working alongside professional cleaners during household visits. In May, X Square began placing robots with participating households for extended in-home service through its “X Family Member Program.”

Elsewhere at the conference, a 22-degree-of-freedom, five-fingered dexterous hand completed a multi-stage fan-unboxing task powered by WALL-B. With its view partially obstructed by the box, the system opened the packaging, removed the fan from a confined space, placed it on a table, turned the fan on and visually verified that it was running. A separate dual-arm system responded to visitors’ natural-language requests by selecting flowers of the specified color and arranging them in a vase. It adjusted its grip and positioning to handle flexible stems and deformable flowers, and replanned its movements when the flower basket or vase was moved during the task.

X Square extended its focus on real-world deployment into logistics. The WALL-B-powered system is already operating on a live parcel-sorting line and is designed to support continuous, round-the-clock operation. The WRC demonstration provided a public test of that capability. During the challenge, the WALL-B-powered system sorted 10,000 parcels in 5 hours, 14 minutes and 1 second, translating into an average throughput of 1,911 parcels an hour, or about 1.88 seconds per parcel.

During the challenge, the robots handled parcels that varied in size, shape, material and position. The system had to repeatedly identify, grasp, orient and sort the items, while correcting unsuccessful actions and responding to changes on the conveyor. Maintaining its throughput over thousands of parcels offered a measure of the consistency and endurance required in commercial logistics operations.

“Embodied AI requires a foundation model built specifically for the physical world, in parallel with the foundation models developed for the digital world. At X Square, our aim is to develop a common intelligence foundation that can operate across different robots, tasks and physical environments, while continuing to improve through real-world deployment,” said Wang Qian, founder and CEO of X Square Robot.

Taken together, the demonstrations reflected X Square’s broader view that embodied intelligence should not be tied to a single robot, task or environment. The company said it will continue integrating models and robotic hardware as it expands into additional home, logistics and industrial applications.

Sharp IMS Revenue Contraction Brings Down Market

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Aug. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — According to a recently published report from Dell’Oro Group, the trusted source for market information about the telecommunications, security, networks, and data center industries, 5G Mobile Core Network (MCN) revenue in EMEA grew over 30 percent in 2Q 2026, contributing more revenue to the worldwide 5G MCN market than any other region.

“So far in 2026, eighty percent of the operators to have launched 5G Standalone (SA) networks for consumer services have been in Europe,” stated Siân Morgan, Sr. Director at Dell’Oro Group. “This helped EMEA 5G MCN revenue to reach a high-water mark in 2Q 2026, and we expect this region will keep expanding in the coming quarters.

“The growth in 5G MCN occurred despite an escalation in server prices causing mobile network operators to scrutinize the cost of network projects. On the other hand, IMS revenue contracted for the third quarter in a row, with most regions seeing a drop in Voice core revenue,” continued Morgan.

Additional highlights from the 2Q 2026 Mobile Core Network and Multi-Access Edge Computing Report include:

MCN market dynamics were stable, with Huawei, Ericsson and Nokia growing MCN revenue in alignment with total market expansion.
4G Wireless Packet Core revenue outpaced the market for the third quarter in a row, driven by mobile network operators that have not yet moved to 5G SA.
In nominal terms, revenue from 5G MCN has still not reached the levels achieved by 4G MCN, with the pressure to automate operations and grow ARPU counterbalanced by the rising cost of infrastructure.
