VinDynamics, a robotics technology company under Vingroup, and Skild AI, a company specializing in foundational models for robotics, have recently announced the signing of a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to collaborate on humanoid robotics and embodied AI. This collaboration signifies VinDynamics’ commitment to advancing humanoid robotics through global partnerships and cutting-edge technology. The focus of this partnership includes research on embodied AI, robot manipulation, sim-to-real transfer, edge AI deployment, and testing humanoid systems in real-world settings.
One of the key aspects of the collaboration involves integrating Skild AI’s omnibodied AI software, The Skild Brain, into VinDynamics’ humanoid robots. The Skild Brain enhances adaptability, efficiency, and reliability of humanoid systems in practical applications. Discussions also include potential cooperation in areas such as robot intelligence, real-world deployment, software, model, and hardware development, and the likelihood of mass production of humanoid robots.
By leveraging VinDynamics’ expertise in robotics engineering, manufacturing capabilities, and real-world deployment ecosystem, along with Skild AI’s foundation model technology, the partnership aims to expedite the development and deployment of humanoid robots proficient in operating in complex and dynamic environments. These robots are envisioned to meet the rising demand for intelligent robotic systems across various industries, including manufacturing, logistics, hospitality, and commercial services.
Prof. La Manh Hung, President of VinDynamics, expressed his enthusiasm about the partnership, highlighting its significance in advancing scalable humanoid robotics platforms for real-world implementation. Mr. Deepak Pathak, Co-Founder and CEO of Skild AI, emphasized the importance of combining scalable physical systems with adaptable, general-purpose intelligence to shape the future of robotics.
Founded in September 2025, VinDynamics is at the forefront of humanoid robotics within Vingroup, with a mission to develop versatile, human-centered robots capable of seamless integration into daily life on a global scale. This collaboration sets the stage for a promising future in the realm of robotics, aiming to push the boundaries of innovation and practical applications in humanoid robotics technology.
