HIT Joins MIIT Standardization Committee For Humanoid Robotics & Embodied AI
Leave a message
Appointed to WG1 (Overall) and WG2 (Limbs & Components) working groups, HIT transitions from market leader to global standard co-creator in flexible tactile sensing.
SHAOXING, CHINA – July 15, 2026 - At the 2026 Annual Meeting & "Standard Week" of the Standardization Technical Committee for Humanoid Robotics and Embodied AI (MIIT/TC8) under China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, HIT was officially awarded membership certificates for WG1 (Overall Working Group) and WG2 (Limb & Components Working Group).
As a key member of both working groups, HIT will play an active role in formulating macro-level technical rules as well as setting core standards for perception modules and tactile sensing in humanoid robotics.
Pioneering Top-Level Standards for the Industry
Embodied AI and humanoid robotics are entering a critical phase of rapid growth and application deployment. In February 2026, the MIIT/TC8 committee introduced China's first full-lifecycle top-level architecture: the Humanoid Robotics and Embodied AI Standard System (2026 Edition), spanning six key pillars: basic commonality, brain-like computing, limbs & components, complete systems, applications, and safety/ethics.
HIT's dual appointments place the company at the forefront of this standard revolution:
WG1 (Overall Working Group): Contributing to overall industry planning and foundational standards.
WG2 (Limb & Components Working Group): Focusing on standardizing key hardware modules, including humanoid torsos, dexterous hands, and tactile perception units.
From Market Dominance to Standard Definition
HIT's appointment to both core working groups is backed by proven market leadership and robust technological strength:
Market Leadership: HIT's proprietary flexible electronic skin has been integrated into over 30,000 dexterous hands, capturing a 70%+ market share. Its client matrix includes leading dexterous hand manufacturers and top-tier humanoid OEMs like Xiaomi and Agibot. Flexible electronic skin is fast becoming the standard configuration for robotic perception.
Full-Chain IDM Model: Operating under an end-to-end IDM (Integrated Device Manufacturer) model covering "Equipment – Material – Device – Algorithm", HIT holds more than 150 intellectual property rights and has contributed to 8 national and industry standards.
Solving Industry Bottlenecks with Tactile Data Engines
Tactile data fragmentation and lack of standardized perception pathways have long hampered the commercialization of humanoid robotics.
In late 2025, HIT, together with industry partners, launched the sector's first open-architecture, ultra-large-scale Multimodal Tactile Data Engine & Cognitive Training Center. Built upon 10+ complex application scenarios, the database is scaling from 10 million to 100 million tactile data entries. By establishing a solid data foundation for physical-world touch, HIT provides reliable, empirical support for standardized tactile sensing.
Co-Creating the Future of Embodied Perception
Moving from technology innovator to industry rule co-creator, HIT will leverage its deep technical reserve to advance standardization, high quality, and scalable deployment across the global robotics ecosystem.
About HIT HIT is a pioneer in flexible electronic skin and advanced tactile sensing solutions for humanoid robotics, smart grippers, and embodied AI systems. Driven by its proprietary IDM model, HIT empowers robots to safely and intelligently interact with the physical world.
