Pre-trained on 60,000 hours of real-world data from 20 robot morphologies, it supports high degrees of freedom and demonstrates superior cross-morphology generalization in dual-arm and mobile manipulation tasks. The model features efficient post-training with latency under 130ms on RTX 4090. It is currently undergoing commercial pilot testing in retail, logistics, and industrial automation scenarios." datetime: "2026-07-08T08:17:02.000Z" locales: - [zh-CN](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/292036781.md) - [en](https://longbridge.com/en/news/292036781.md) - [zh-HK](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/news/292036781.md) generator: "portal-rs" --- # Robbyant Upgrades and Open-Sources LingBot-VLA 2.0 as a Next-Generation Universal Brain for Embodied AI In Shanghai, Robbyant, an AI company under Ant Group, revealed the launch and upgrade of LingBot-VLA 2.0, which has been made open-source. This upgraded version follows the initial release of LingBot-VLA 1.0 in January 2026. The new vision-language-action (VLA) model marks notable advancements in morphological generalization, degrees of freedom (DoF) support, and deployment efficiency. These improvements aim to provide a more sophisticated "universal brain" suitable for widespread real-world robotics applications. ## Related News & Research - [3 Next-Gen AI Stocks That 3G Capital Bought in Q2](https://longbridge.com/en/news/296496173.md) - [ENGINEAI says general-purpose humanoid robot costs have fallen below RMB100,000](https://longbridge.com/en/news/296741129.md) - [Prosus report says general-purpose robotics nears “GPT-3 moment”](https://longbridge.com/en/news/296352692.md) - [10:12 ETAs Franchises Race to Adopt AI, Franify Wins Gold Stevie® for Technical Innovation](https://longbridge.com/en/news/296368752.md) - [11:51 ETSuperOne Founder Andreas Christensen Launches AI-Native Fan Engagement Platform Powered by Enterprise AI Proven Across Billions of Users](https://longbridge.com/en/news/296378138.md) --- > **Disclaimer: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.**
