In response to the surging AI era, driven by new paradigms like generative artificial intelligence, Emdoor Information announces the establishment of an enterprise research institute. This strategic move, coinciding with its one-year anniversary since going public, actively embraces emerging technologies and trends. The institute will pioneer innovative AI-native interaction solutions, solidifying Emdoor’s leadership through continuous innovation.
The inaugural ceremony for the Emdoor Research Institute took place on January 21 at the auditorium of Emdoor Building. Chairman Zhang Zhiyu and General Manager Guo Zhi jointly unveiled the plaque, witnessed by representatives including Dr. Zhang Jiaxing, Chair Professor of the Research Institute, and Mr. Zhang Bowen, Director of External Cooperation Department.
Chairman Zhang Zhiyu articulated that “Emdoor’s development has always adhered to technological innovation and talent cultivation. The establishment of the research institute not only represents a further strengthening of our technological capabilities for the future but also demonstrates our expectations, methods, and commitment to the rapid implementation of new technology applications and practices.”
General Manager Guo Zhi stated, “Emdoor keenly recognizes the imminent opportunities arising at the intersection of human-machine interaction as the interface, artificial intelligence as the engine, and spatial intelligence as the carrier. The research institute will actively recruit talent, foster an environment of open innovation, embrace ecosystems, and use innovation to drive technological progress, making leading technology more accessible to everyone.”
Emdoor Information, a leading provider of intelligent hardware products and solutions with R&D at its core, has over a decade of experience in applying and industrializing new technologies. Specializing in intelligent rugged terminals, consumer electronics, and virtual reality products, the company successfully went public on February 14, 2023, accelerating its development. The establishment of this enterprise research institute, under Chairman Zhang Zhiyu’s leadership, marks a new industrial development strategy. It underscores Emdoor’s commitment to long-term technological investment, aiming to build core competitiveness, accumulate future-oriented technologies, and explore innovative products, thereby maintaining vitality through sensitive technological insight and business acumen.
The Emdoor Research Institute is designed as an industry-leading innovation center, primarily focused on artificial intelligence, perceptual technology, and spatial intelligence. Its overarching goal is to drive continuous advancements in the human-machine interaction paradigm by attracting and cultivating exceptional research and product-oriented innovation talents. This initiative aligns with the pervasive trend of “software defining everything” in intelligent hardware, a phenomenon highlighted at recent events like CES, encompassing generative AI and the emergence of cloud-native and AI-native hardware concepts.
Positioned as the company’s central research institution, distinct from typical technology centers, the institute defines strategic goals across four key areas:
Firstly, it undertakes the research, positioning, development, verification, and output of core technologies for Emdoor’s future technological paradigms, continuously breaking through innovation bottlenecks to ensure its output remains at the forefront of technological development.
Secondly, it serves as the designated unified research-oriented cooperation hub for the company, establishing extensive partnerships within the upstream and downstream ecosystem, with academic institutions, and through collaborative efforts with innovative departments of technology original equipment manufacturers.
Thirdly, it provides intellectual support and reference solutions to the decision-makers in the company’s R&D leadership, propelling the implementation of corporate and departmental strategies with the latest technological and industry perspectives.
Lastly, it attracts, nurtures, and retains advanced research talents, ensuring it possesses leading knowledge and expertise in perceptual technology, spatial intelligence, and artificial intelligence, continuously outputting these talents to various departments within the company.
Moving forward, Emdoor will leverage its extensive industry experience and technological expertise through the Research Institute to further drive innovation, foster industry-academia collaborations, and cultivate top talents. Its continuous efforts in human-machine interaction, artificial intelligence, and spatial intelligence aim to ensure technological applications achieve more positive outcomes in response to both business and societal demands. This significant initiative is a vital component of Emdoor’s development strategy and foreshadows future trends and directions for the high-tech industry.
