    Junrou Technology completes angel round series financing, totaling 100 million yuan

    Brain-computer interface company Junrou Technology has completed a series of angel round financings: the angel round was led by Jiuhe Venture Capital, and the angel+ round was invested in by Shunwei Capital, Hillhouse Venture Capital, Agibot, and others, with the three rounds completed within one year of the company's founding totaling 100 million yuan. The company's core technology is a neural worm dynamic electrode originating from Liu Zhiyuan's team at the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences; a planar electrode array is rolled into a fiber electrode about 196 micrometers in diameter, which crawls toward multiple brain regions under magnetic field guidance through a small hole of about 1 centimeter in the skull. The first-generation brain-computer interface system has completed some animal experiments, and an IIT is expected to launch in 2027.

    Tsinghua AI4S Forum: Li Luming, Yaghi and others discuss how to use AI for scientific research

    The Tsinghua University Student AI4S Association held a forum on October 9. President Li Luming said bluntly that "a lot of research work is already meaningless," while Nobel laureate Omar Yaghi proposed "choosing science" and described an autonomous running laboratory in which AI proposes materials solutions and robotic systems synthesize and characterize them. Several professors stressed the building of foundational databases: Gao Xiangyu of Peking University Cancer Hospital advocated "one person, one file" with multi-point sampling throughout, Tsinghua's Xu Zhiping used physical transmission to connect simple and complex systems, and Sinopec's Sun Lili warned that data errors amplify step by step along the chain.

    Capital rushes into AI 3D: VAST, Meshy, and Yingmou absorb over RMB 8 billion in half a year

    FoST Future Narrative published an analysis of the financing and commercialization landscape in the AI 3D sector: as of the end of September, three companies founded by people born in the 1990s—VAST, Meshy, and Yingmou—had raised a combined total of over RMB 8 billion within half a year. VAST raised over RMB 5 billion in half a year and reached a valuation of USD 2 billion; Meshy completed a USD 400 million financing round in July 2026 at a post-money valuation of USD 1.5 billion, and its ARR surpassed USD 100 million at the end of September.

    Edge AI Daily Morning Brief (October 21)

    An evaluation by SenseTime together with teams including Daxiao Robotics and Nanyang Technological University shows that GPT-6-Astra came close to full marks on several of 12 simulation benchmarks (100% on LIBERO-Long++, 98.8% on SIMPLE), but after deployment on 8 real robot platforms, all 11 attempts to plug in a plug failed and folding clothes ran into trouble. Its high scores also depend on two "boosters": in-context learning (ICL) and relaxing the action step limit to 10x; on the long-horizon household benchmark BEHAVIOR, its success rate was only 37.0%.

    Brief: CAS brain-computer interface decoding advance, world's first flying bicycle debuts, liquid robot can split, and more

    The Tang Fengzhen research group at the Shenyang Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, proposed an EEG signal decoding method based on the log-Euclidean metric Riemannian geometry. Its recognition speed is about 4 times faster than methods based on the affine-invariant Riemannian metric, and its recognition accuracy on the BCI Competition IV-2a dataset outperforms the competition's first-place entry.
