embodied intelligence technical

"DaBoss.AI Inc., an embodied intelligence data technology company based in Silicon Valley."

Embodied intelligence is the ability of a physical device — such as a robot, drone, or sensor-equipped machine — to sense its surroundings, make decisions and act, using its body and environment as part of how it solves problems. Investors watch embodied intelligence because it lets machines perform complex tasks autonomously, cut labor or error, unlock new product uses and shift costs or regulation exposure — like a worker who learns by doing rather than only following remote instructions.

u.s. gaap financial

"The venture's financial results will be consolidated into Robo.ai's financial statements under U.S. GAAP."

U.S. GAAP is a set of rules and standards that companies in the United States follow to prepare their financial reports. It helps ensure that financial information is consistent and clear, so investors and others can compare and understand a company's financial health easily.

DUBAI, UAE, Feb. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Robo.ai Inc. (NASDAQ: AIIO), a Nasdaq-listed company, today announced the execution of a definitive joint venture agreement with DaBoss.AI Inc., an embodied intelligence data technology company based in Silicon Valley.

The parties will establish a Robo.ai-controlled joint venture in the UAE to create a distributed embodied intelligence data acquisition and annotation center. The center is designed to systematically address three core challenges—data scale, acquisition cost, and data compliance—faced by large AI models as they advance into the physical world, thereby accelerating the scaled deployment of the machine economy in real-world business scenarios.

The joint venture intends to integrate DaBoss.AI's industry insights from Silicon Valley with its global distributed collaboration model. Its strategic objectives are to enable AI developers by 1) enhancing delivery efficiency for clients through a global collaborative network enabling cross-geography response to data acquisition tasks; 2) expanding access to diversified scenarios through a global node network providing multi-modal datasets across various environments and conditions; and 3) developing a standardized compliance framework, leveraging UAE's strategic position to explore internationally aligned data processing protocols.

Technically, the venture will implement a validated "dual-engine" data acquisition methodology to build high-fidelity datasets. This encompasses embodied data, collected via standardized robotic terminals in controlled spaces for precise action trajectory and force feedback, as well as non-embodied data, captured at scale via VR and wearable devices to record first-person visual and motion data in complex operational scenarios.

Aiden Zhu, Co-founder and U.S. CEO of DaBoss.AI, stated: "Historically, acquiring embodied intelligence data involved capital-intensive and high-risk models. Through this collaboration, clients simply need to define the scope of the task. Our distributed network automates global deployment, hardware adaptation, data collection, and alignment. We are transforming robotic hardware into elastic, scalable global data infrastructure."

Benjamin Zhai, CEO of Robo.ai, stated: "This partnership provides access to physical world data and introduces cutting-edge acquisition technology from Silicon Valley. It enables us to serve global clients with urgent needs for high-quality embodied intelligence data in a compliant and efficient manner, supporting a strategic transition from digital to physical."

Under the agreement, Robo.ai will hold a 51% equity stake in the joint venture and appoint a majority of its board members. The venture's financial results will be consolidated into Robo.ai's financial statements under U.S. GAAP. The parties plan to complete the initial deployment of the distributed network and commence commercial operations within 90 days following the agreement's execution.
