Robotera has raised more than 200 million dollars in a new funding round led by SF Group, according to a press release. The round also included participation from investors such as HSG, IDG Capital, Hillhouse Investment, CICC Capital, and Jingming Capital. Industrial partners such as KENGIC, Dongfeng Asset Investment, ICBC Capital, and funds affiliated with China Unicom also joined the round. Existing investors Tsinghua Holding Tiancheng Asset Management and Horizon Investment increased their holdings.

The new funding follows Robotera’s one billion yuan strategic round in March. The company has achieved product market fit in the embodied intelligence sector, with deployments across more than ten logistics centers in cooperation with China Post and SF Group.

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
