Huawei Cloud embodied robotics lead left to start a company using brain cognition to redesign robot brains

华为云具身机器人负责人离职创业，想用脑认知“改造”机器人大脑丨智能涌现独家

Former Huawei Cloud embodied robotics lead Zhu Senhua left in Oct. 2025 to found Julao Panshi, which has raised a seed round worth tens of millions of RMB. The company says it uses brain-inspired methods to modify VLA for embodied AI; prototype tests showed 40% higher deployment efficiency in open environments and a 90% cut in data needs for few-shot manipulation. The key point is that it starts as a VLA add-on, while targeting Asia-Pacific service and industrial use cases where overseas customers accept robots that replace only 50%-70% of human labor.

Why it matters: A solid featured story: founder spinout + seed funding + a concrete VLA add-on thesis with +40%/-90% prototype claims. Not higher because the evidence is still company-reported; the piece does not disclose a public benchmark, customer count, or scaled deployment data.
