SEER Robotics Welcomes Tsinghua University Research Group: Bridging Industry and Academia

Recently, Tsinghua University’s undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral research group visited SEER Robotics’ Shanghai headquarters twice within two weeks for in-depth academic exchanges. SEER Robotics was the only AI and robotics enterprise in Shanghai visited by the Tsinghua research group, serving as their first stop on the tour.

During the visits, students engaged in multiple substantive discussions with SEER Robotics’ founding team on industry trends, technological breakthroughs, and personal career development.


Showcasing Robotics Innovation Across Industries


The exchange began with a comprehensive introduction by Zhao Yue, Co-founder and CEO, in SEER Robotics’ first-floor exhibition hall. Highlights included:

  • Platform-Based Development: Demonstrating SEER Robotics’ one-stop solutions applied across 20+ industries, including automotive, 3C electronics, new energy, and construction machinery.
  • Interactive Demonstrations: Live robot showcases and 3D software simulations provided students with hands-on insights into real-world robotics applications.
  • Industry Practices: Students gained an intuitive understanding of smart manufacturing, warehouse automation, and multi-robot collaboration.


In-Depth Academic Exchange: Exploring Robotics Frontiers


The subsequent discussion sessions included multiple rounds of intellectual exchange on topics such as:

  • Global Robotics Industry Evolution
  • Industrial Value Chain Integration
  • Smart Manufacturing Applications Across Sectors

Key Insight: SEER Robotics’ open platform strategy is driven by the belief that industry prosperity requires broad collaboration, not just a few companies providing closed solutions.

  • Controllers and Supply Chains as Standard Products: Unlike traditional models treating entire robots as products, SEER Robotics defines controllers and supply chains as standard, reliable, and feature-rich products, allowing developers to focus on scenario innovation instead of building foundational technologies from scratch.
  • Barrier-Free Robotics Development: This approach enables the acquisition, deployment, and application of intelligent robots without high technical barriers.


Safety and Reliability in the Era of Large AI Models


Addressing challenges posed by large AI models in robotics, Zhao Yue emphasized:

  • Multi-Layered Safety System: Ensures robots can safely operate in unpredictable physical environments.
  • Dual-Verification Mechanisms: Combines heterogeneous dual-computation verification with traditional control systems as a backend to validate AI decisions.
  • Operational Safety in Dynamic Environments: Guarantees reliability for industrial and commercial applications.


Entrepreneurial Insights and Student Guidance


The three co-founders shared their journey:

  • From university competitions to winning three world championships
  • From responding to market demands to defining SEER Robotics’ industry positioning

Advice to Students:

  • Build a strong professional foundation
  • Cultivate the ability to ask the right questions and integrate AI into knowledge systems
  • Focus on innovative enterprises with core technological barriers
  • Align personal growth with industrial development trajectories


Industry-Academia Collaboration: Targeted Internship Program


As a result of the visits, SEER Robotics and Tsinghua University reached a preliminary consensus to launch a targeted internship program, enabling students to:

  • Gain hands-on industry experience
  • Bridge the gap between theory and practice
  • Participate in frontline robotics research and development

This initiative marks a significant step in industry-academia-research integration, fostering future robotics talent while showcasing SEER Robotics’ technological strength and open ecosystem.


Recommended Controllers for Industrial Applications


  • SRC-880: High-performance standard controller for flexible automation solutions
  • SRC-2000-F(S): Advanced controller for multi-robot coordination and industrial integration
  • SRC-3000FS (Forklift): Specialized controller optimized for automated material handling and warehouse robotics


Conclusion


The visits from Tsinghua University exemplify the convergence of academic research and industrial innovation. SEER Robotics continues to lead in open-platform robotics, multi-industry automation, and safety-focused AI integration, creating opportunities for young global talents to participate in the future of intelligent robotics.

By combining technological innovation, open platforms, and academic collaboration, SEER Robotics is building a bridge between cutting-edge research and real-world applications, enabling barrier-free access to intelligent automation worldwide.
