Shanghai, China, 4th Nov, 2025 — In late October 2025, the 2025 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS 2025) was held in Hangzhou, which was the annual flagship event in the global robotics field. Centered on the theme of ‘Frontiers of Human – Robot Interaction’, AgiBot, a leading enterprise in embodied intelligence, made its first in – depth participation in this conference.
AgiBot not only showcased the practical achievements of its technologies through live demonstrations of its full product range,but also became the spotlight of the event by co-hosting the first “AgiBot World Challenge” international competition, demonstrating its technological influence and ecosystem-building capabilities in the global robotics sector.
As a core highlight of this year’s IROS, the “AgiBot World Challenge” international competition attracted widespread industry attention with its high standards and strong participation.The competition set up two major tracks: Manipulation and World Model, with a total prize pool of 560,000. It ultimately drew 431 top teams from 23 countries and regions across 5 continents, covering various innovation entities such as universities and research institutions, becoming a high-level technical exchange feast in the global embodied intelligence field.
Among the two tracks, the Manipulation track witnessed particularly intense competition. After rigorous selection in the preliminary online simulation competition, 11 teams from top universities and research institutions around the world advanced to the offline real-robot final, which took place at the IROS venue from October 21 to 22. Relying on AgiBot’s platform, the participating teams competed in completing various high-difficulty operational tasks. In the end, the AIR-DREAM team from Tsinghua University and Shanghai AI Lab claimed the championship and won a $10,000 cash prize. This track not only fully demonstrated the technological innovation capabilities of global young developers,but also verified the advanced nature and stability of AgiBot’s platform through practical tests.
The World Model track, which concluded earlier, focused on the core proposition of “enabling AI to predict the physical world”. Based on AgiBot’s open-source AgiBot World dataset and EVAC baseline model, participants actively explored innovations in the field of embodied world models, achieving a number of technological breakthroughs and providing new ideas for the development of this field. Finally, the VIPL-GENUN team from the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, won the top prize in this track.
In addition to the competition, AgiBot also presented its full product lineup, including the Genie series, Lingxi X2, and Yuanzheng A2, at the conference exhibition area. It also showcased open-source projects through the Lingqu Developer Community, further strengthening its capabilities in technology implementation and ecosystem co-construction.
During this IROS journey, AgiBot, with the competition as a link and technology as the core, had injected new impetus into the development of the global robotics industry.
