Alibaba’s Amap to Launch First Embodied Robot, Starting with a Robotic Dog

Alibaba’s Amap is preparing to launch its first embodied robot, starting with a quadruped robotic dog.

The product comes from Amap’s embodied intelligence division as part of a broader push into robotics.

The team is also exploring humanoid robots, suggesting ambitions beyond a single device category.

Amap has reportedly built a large navigation data engine to support more complex real-world tasks.
