AutoCore, in collaboration with BeiQi Technology and Rockchip, launches the AutoRobo Domesticated Robot Platform, bridging the “Last Mile” from Prototype to Mass Production

All-in-One Hardware-Software Integrated Platform Accelerates Robot Deployment from Experimental Prototype to Commercialization

[Nanjing, China] — [December 10, 2025] — AutoCore, Rockchip, and BeiQi Technology have announced a strategic partnership to jointly launch the AutoRobo Domesticated Robot Platform, based on the RK3588+RK1828 computing card. The platform deeply integrates Rockchip’s native Robot SDK and AutoCore’s production-ready software stack, delivering a truly localized, full-stack solution—from chips and hardware design to software—with complete intellectual property rights. It enables rapid, large-scale mass production, thoroughly overcoming the "last mile" engineering bottlenecks from innovative prototyping to commercial deployment. By eliminating these hurdles, the platform significantly shortens time-to-market, enhances lifecycle reliability and security, and provides enterprises with a secure, controllable mass-production platform for robotics.

The AutoRobo domesticated solution is based on Rockchip's flagship AIoT chip RK3588, building an efficient heterogeneous computing architecture of "main control + dedicated AI coprocessor RK1820/1828." This enables a complete closed loop from perception and decision-making to control, achieving a breakthrough combination of determinism, integration, and full lifecycle management.

• The main chip RK3588 is built on an 8 nm process and integrates 4×A76 and 4×A55 CPU cores, with a built-in 6 TOPS NPU, handling motion control, multi-sensor fusion, and high-level decision-making.
• A dedicated RK1820/RK1828 AI accelerator card is connected through PCIe 3.0，and leverage its 3D-stacked DRAM for high bandwidth and high computing, supporting on-device inference of 3B/7B parameters LLMs/VLMs and delivering hundreds of inferences per second.. It also supports the deployment of models such as VLA/VLN on the edge, enabling end-to-end tasks like action planning, path planning, and obstacle avoidance.

• Dual-kernel architecture eliminates ROS2 pain points for mass production： AutoRobo runs on the production-grade AutoCore.OS, which uses an innovative asymmetric dual-kernel design to achieve perfect isolation and efficient collaboration of deterministic real-time tasks (such as millisecond-level motion control) and high-throughput non-real-time tasks (such as AI vision, multi-sensor fusion) on a single chip.
• Microsecond-Level Control Accuracy: The real-time kernel has a built-in AutoCore EtherCAT master protocol, providing microsecond-level precise control for multi-axis servo systems.
• Bridging the gap between prototype and mass production ：Gap: While fully compatible with ROS2, it fundamentally solves core issues such as communication jitter, uncertainty, and poor system stability existing in the open-source ROS2 solutions in complex network and application scenarios, providing a predictable, manageable, and rock-solid reliable foundation for commercialization.
• Production-Ready Out of the Box: the stack ships with enterprise-grade functions essential for large-scale robot deployment—including system-level health management, runtime governance, system diagnostics, data encryption/decryption service, a lightweight sandbox, and dependable over-the-air (OTA) update

• Highly Pre-Integrated Hardware Platform: The AutoRobo platform has pre-integrated a wide ranges of buses and interfaces such as EtherCAT, Ethernet (including TSN), CAN, Wi-Fi/Bluetooth, enabling seamless connection to mainstream chassis, robotic arms, LiDAR, and various sensors. This "pre-integrated, pre-validated" design saves customers months of hardware selection and driver adaptation work, significantly reducing project risk.
• Rockchip SDK Accelerates time-to-market: With the Rockchip robot SDK, customers can rapidly assemble motion control，visual perception，decision inference and business interaction as plug-in modules within a unified software framework. The SDK provides:
  1. Rich Module Integration: Complete robot audio solutions (AI noise reduction,AEC), high-quality visual perception algorithms (stereo depth estimation, IES), and an extensive ModelZoo model library, allowing customers to plug and play and build prototypes quickly.
  2. Lower Integration Threshold: well-documented APIs, reference designs and out-of-box drivers for mainstream sensors and peripherals shorten development cycles dramatically.
• Out-of-the-Box Application Software Stack: The AutoCore platform ships with field-proven algorithm packages and natively integrates optimized frameworks like MoveIt! and NAV2. Combined with Rockchip SDK, developers can quickly deliver high-precision autonomous navigation and complex multi-axis robotic arm coordinated control without starting from scratch, enabling "Out-of-the-box, Rapid Time-to-Market."

• Depth defense Security System: The platform provides enterprise-grade protections including secure boot, data encryption, and end-to-end access control to form a layered information-security architecture.
• Always-on reliability: Through continuous health monitoring and self-healing mechanisms, it ensures long-term stable operation of equipment, meeting the stringent 7x24 hour commercial site operation requirements of large-scale robot clusters.

AutoRobo is an ideal solution for robotics OEMs, system integrators, and innovation teams focused on rapid productization, particularly for developing nextgeneration products such as Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR), collaborative robots, delivery robots, and commercial service robots. By offloading common lowlevel engineering challenges inherent in mass production to the platform, customers can invest their valuable R&D resources to valuecreating activities such as product definition, algorithm optimization, and enhancing user experience.

In this strategic collaboration, the three parties have worked closely together to deliver a fullstack, fully selfdeveloped robotics massproduction solution spanning from chip to software stack:

• Rockchip Electronics: Provides the core AIoT chip and computing architecture (RK3588+RK1828), as well as the robot SDK, unleashing the potential of domestic computing power.
• BeiQi Technology: Leverages its strategic partnership with Rockchip to provide professional hardware customization services and system integration, ensuring the reliability of the hardware platform.
• AutoCore: Delivers the production-ready AutoCore.OS operating system and the AutoRobo software protocol stack, thoroughly solving the mass production challenges of open-source solutions and guaranteeing the overall robotics system with high determinism, reliability, and security.

The three parties have jointly worked together to bridge the "last mile" from innovative prototype to commercial, large-scale robot mass production.
