A Win-Win Partnership

 

When a robotics expert meets a leader in new energy testing technology, a strategic synergy concerning the future of intelligent manufacturing accelerates the explosion of embodied intelligence.

 

On March 25, 2025, Guangdong Tendo Intelligent Systems Co., Ltd. and Fujian Nebula Electronics Co., Ltd. signed a strategic cooperation agreement in Songshan Lake, Dongguan.

 

Ms. Chen Xi, Chairwoman of Tendo Intelligent; Mr. Huang Shaoping, Chief Operating Officer; Mr. Duan Jingyi, Vice President and General Manager of the Marketing Center; alongside Mr. Liu Zuobin, Vice Chairman and President of Nebula Electronics; Ms. Xu Longfei, Director, Vice President, and Board Secretary; and Mr. Jia Baokun, Key Account Director, jointly attended the strategic partnership signing ceremony.

 

The two parties will engage in deep collaboration across three major fronts—precision power supply R&D, robotics product solutions, and intelligent scenario applications—anchored in the national strategic deployment of embodied intelligence. Together, they aim to pioneer a new paradigm for the robotics industry characterized by “Co-Innovation of Technology, Co-Development of Scenarios, and Co-Existence within an Ecosystem.”

 

China’s Humanoid Robot Market to Account for 32.7% of Global Total by 2029

 

According to forecasts by Markets and Markets, the global humanoid robot market is projected to grow from $1.8 billion in 2023 to $13.8 billion by 2028, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 50.2%. Goldman Sachs predicts that, under an optimistic scenario, the market size could reach $154 billion by 2035—equivalent to one-third the size of the 2021 electric vehicle or smartphone markets.

 

As a core battleground, China’s humanoid robot market is expected to reach 75 billion yuan by 2029, accounting for 32.7% of the global total. By 2035, it is projected to reach up to 300 billion yuan.

And with 2025 widely regarded by the industry as the “inaugural year of mass production” for humanoid robots, the batch production and commercial deployment of intelligent robotics will unlock boundless possibilities for industry transformation. Driven by policy support, technological breakthroughs, and promising application prospects, Tendo Intelligent and Nebula Electronics are accelerating their push to secure strategic high ground. At this pivotal juncture of industrial and technological transformation, the two companies are precisely aligned, signing a strategic agreement to jointly build an industrial ecosystem and pursue high-quality development.

 

Shortened Technology Conversion Cycles Accelerate Real-World Application Deployment

 

During the meeting, both parties engaged in in-depth discussions on the application of humanoid robots across multiple industries, technical challenges, and strategic directions for collaboration, drawing on their respective strengths. They clearly defined business focal points and explored the application potential across various sectors.

 

Ms. Chen Xi, Chairwoman of Tendo Intelligent, observed that embodied intelligence is approaching three major inflection points: the entry of humanoid robots into the mass production era, the multi-scenario generalization of embodied intelligence, and the reshaping of robotic decision-making paradigms by large AI models. With robotics and control systems at its core, Tendo Intelligent is committed to accelerating the real-world deployment of embodied AGI applications. Through close collaboration with partners, the company is resolutely and vigorously advancing toward this technological transformation.

Fujian Nebula Electronics Co., Ltd. is a leading high-tech enterprise in China centered on lithium battery testing technology. With over 20 years of continuous deep cultivation, the company has provided battery testing technology to numerous brands. “High precision,” “high efficiency,” and “high reliability” are synonymous with Nebula’s products.

 

Furthermore, Nebula Electronics has successively received numerous honors, including the Second Prize of the National Science and Technology Progress Award, recognition as one of the first batches of National “Little Giant” Enterprises specializing in sophisticated technologies by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, designation as a National Enterprise Technology Center, approval for a Postdoctoral Scientific Research Workstation, and ranking among the Top 100 Innovative Private Enterprises in Fujian Province. It is a long-term partner to industry-leading enterprises.

 

This strategic “Mountain-Sea Collaboration” pioneers a “third path” for the deep integration of embodied intelligence and new energy. Guided by the practical deployment of robotics applications, the partnership aims to jointly build an end-to-end integrated industrial ecosystem of application solutions. The technology conversion cycle will be significantly shortened, accelerating the deep penetration and large-scale proliferation of embodied intelligence and humanoid robot AGI across the new energy sector and various other industries.

 

Full-Joint Compliant Force-Controlled Dual Arms: Exploring the World Like Humans

 

Amid the critical leap of robotics technology toward embodied intelligence, Tendo Intelligent’s Marvin dual-arm robot redefines the safety boundaries and cognitive depth of human-robot collaboration through two major technological breakthroughs: full-joint compliant force control and human-like interaction logic.

 

1. Full-Joint Compliant Force Control: MEMS Sensors Reconstruct the Robot’s “Nerve Endings”

 

Behind the Marvin robot’s 0.5N-level force control precision lies Tendo Intelligent’s MEMS technology revolution. Tendo is the first robotics company to pioneer the use of MEMS sensing technology within arm joints.

 

By embedding proprietary semiconductor sensing chips into each joint module, its sensitivity is 10 times that of conventional solutions, while stability has achieved a breakthrough 20-fold improvement. The ultra-high-precision torque sensing capability enables the robot to perceive external pressure changes in real time, much like human muscles. Moreover, it ensures enhanced safety: when the robotic arm encounters an obstacle, joint torque control automatically triggers an immediate stop.

In terms of hardware architecture, Tendo employs a specialized stainless steel substrate and a double-sided strain-sensing element design, endowing the sensor with twice the rigidity of comparable products. This not only makes high-payload force-controlled collaborative robots a reality but also enables further increases in robot speed while maintaining the same motion precision. Moreover, it empowers humanoid robots to deliver stable performance in highly dynamic scenarios such as automotive assembly and medical rehabilitation.

 

2. Impedance Technology: Unlocking “Tactile Intelligence” for Human-Robot Integration

The high-precision MEMS sensors, coupled with impedance control dynamic tracking algorithms, achieve human-like tactile interaction logic. This technology equips the robot with the adaptive capacity to respond to changing environments.

In human-robot interaction scenarios, the robot exhibits natural compliance when engaging with humans, reducing impact forces and enhancing both comfort and safety.

 

When operating in unknown environments, this capability helps the robot better adapt to external changes, minimizing oscillations and instability caused by external disturbances, thereby improving task execution efficiency and reliability.

 

In scenarios requiring precise force and position control—such as precision compliant assembly—impedance control ensures the robot can make flexible adjustments upon encountering obstacles, preventing damage to both the manipulated object and the robot itself.

 

Looking back from the vantage point of 2025, this powerful alliance forged in Dongguan’s Songshan Lake has already thrust itself into the wave of innovation sweeping China’s intelligent manufacturing industry. When robots learn to explore the world with a human-like sense of touch, and when factory floors evolve into symbiotic clusters of intelligent agents, what Tendo Intelligent and Nebula Electronics are authoring is not merely a corporate growth story, but a declaration of commitment to charging toward the commanding heights of intelligent manufacturing.
