Gaoxinxing Robot (高新兴机器人)

Predictive Maintenance · Security and Compliance

Gaoxinxing Robot needed to scale patrol and inspection robots across public-safety, energy, data-center, and industrial scenarios, but traditional server back ends were unstable, expensive to maintain, and too inflexible for fleet-wide robot data management. The company also needed a better way to combine multimodal perception, edge processing, and cloud coordination for AI-driven inspection services.

Reported impact

Business outcome

Alibaba Cloud gave Gaoxinxing Robot a more stable and scalable operating base for inspection robots. The company can centralize robot data and anomaly analysis, support human-machine collaborative patrols through cloud workflows, and lower the cost and complexity of scaling robot services across parks, factories, data centers, and public-safety sites instead of relying on isolated, failure-prone local servers.

Solution

Gaoxinxing Robot partnered with Alibaba Cloud to build a cloud-edge-end platform for AI patrol and inspection robots instead of continuing to run robot back ends on fragile traditional servers. On the device side, the company's robots combine low-speed autonomous driving, multimodal perception, video capture, and self-developed control software to inspect public-safety, energy, industrial, and property environments. The third-generation RCC core controller packages power, communication, control, and robot OS capabilities on the robot, while edge computing handles real-time perception close to the scene. Cloud-side services then handle robot data storage, anomaly analysis, mission scheduling, visualization, and fleet-wide information exchange so multiple robot types can be managed as one platform instead of isolated installations. On top of that base, the company is building DingTalk-based SaaS workflows for fire inspection and human-machine collaboration.

Data flow

Robot, sensor, and video signals are processed at the edge for perception and control, then synchronized to the cloud-edge-end platform for storage, anomaly analysis, visualization, and fleet management. Operators review alerts and coordinate human-machine inspection work through DingTalk-based SaaS workflows backed by the same cloud platform.

Solution architecture

5 components · 3 layers
  1. Compute
    • RCC core controller Runs robot-side control, power, communication, and low-speed autonomous-driving functions in one hardware-software unit.
    • edge computing tier Processes perception and interaction workloads near the inspection scene for real-time response.
  2. Serving
    • DingTalk Provides the operator-facing collaboration surface for robot management, alert review, and human-machine inspection workflows.
    • fire AI inspection robot cloud platform Delivers cloud-native SaaS workflows for fire-inspection robot management and collaborative handling.
  3. Orchestration
    • robot cloud-edge-end integrated platform Coordinates robot data exchange, cloud storage, anomaly analysis, task management, and visualization across the fleet.

Architecture clues

  • Cloud-edge-end separation lets real-time perception stay near the scene while storage, anomaly analysis, and fleet coordination stay centralized.
  • DingTalk-based SaaS workflows expose robot management, alert review, and human-machine inspection actions through one operator interface.
  • The RCC controller integrates control, power, communications, robot OS, and autonomous-driving capability on the device side.
  • The platform combines low-speed autonomous driving with multimodal AI perception rather than treating the robot as a simple remote camera.
