Lightwheel Compresses Geely Humanoid Robot Training Cycle by 10x

AI robotics company Lightwheel has partnered with Geely to reduce the single-task training cycle for humanoid robots from several months to just weeks, achieving a 10x speedup. Geely's in-house humanoid robots are now deployed on automotive production lines, working alongside human workers for parts sorting and sequencing.
This breakthrough relies on two key technologies: a real-world data collection method that doesn't disrupt production line efficiency, and a training approach that bridges the sim-to-real gap.
