SHNU Jointly Established the Embodied Intelligence Laboratory with Zhiyuan Robotics

28 Sep 2025

Recently, our university partnered with Shanghai Zhiyuan New Technology Co., Ltd. (referred to as Zhiyuan Robotics) to officially establish the Embodied Intelligence in Education Laboratory. On September 25th, the first domestic course covering the entire Embodied Intelligence Practice was launched for undergraduate students. This initiative marks a significant step forward in the university's exploration of cutting-edge AI education. During the laboratory and course development phase, Vice President Li Ye led the course team in multiple discussions and seminars with Zhiyuan Robotics.  Embodied intelligence in education is a frontier direction in the field of artificial intelligence, integrating disciplines such as AI, robotics, computer science, communication, and education. Through the deep integration of teaching tools, supplementary materials, management systems, and educators, the laboratory and its related courses will offer substantial learning benefits to students.

Zhiyuan Robotics leverages its self-developed one-stop development platform, Genie Studio, to provide robust technical support for this course and laboratory construction. The platform encompasses four core modules: data collection, model training, simulation evaluation, and model inference, enabling students to acquire cutting-edge skills in a standardized environment. Through the complementary advantages of university-enterprise collaboration, research achievements can be more swiftly transformed into education resources.
