Itstone AI to Unveil Three Embodied Intelligence Breakthroughs at WAIC 2026: AWE 3.5 Model Launch, Automotive Wiring Harness Production Line Replication, and Dexterous Hand Magic Show with Deng Nanzi

At the World Artificial Intelligence Conference 2026 (WAIC 2026), Tishstone Robotics will showcase three key achievements in embodied intelligence: its next-generation embodied-native foundation model AWE 3.5, a full-scale replica of an automotive wiring harness production line, and a collaborative human-robot magic performance featuring the A1 robot equipped with the DexHand dexterous hand alongside magician Deng Nanzi. During the event, Tishstone Robotics will officially launch the AWE 3.5 model. This model pioneers a complete “pre-training + post-training” paradigm for embodied-native architectures, trained on over one million hours of human-centric real-world data and multimodal visual-tactile information to significantly enhance robots’ generalization and stable execution capabilities in real environments. Attendees will be able to experience an interactive visualization of the model onsite, stepping into a virtual space constructed by a world model to intuitively observe how the robot’s “brain” perceives spatial relationships, reasons about physical rules, and plans motion trajectories. Simultaneously, Tishstone will present a 1:1 recreation of an actual automotive wiring harness assembly line at the exhibition, where a fleet of robots will demonstrate autonomous operations in real time. Powered by AWE 3.5, the company has partnered with enterprises such as Tianhai Electronics and Aptiv, as well as the Jiading District government of Shanghai, to scale embodied intelligence applications in high-precision, highly complex industrial manufacturing scenarios. Notably, the collaboration with Jiading District aims to deploy China’s first industrial embodied intelligence robot cluster at the thousand-unit scale, with the initial deployment taking place at Aptiv’s production facility. Additionally, the A1 robot fitted with the DexHand dexterous hand will join magician Deng Nanzi in debuting a groundbreaking human-robot collaborative magic act. The DexHand features a 21-degree-of-freedom quasi-direct-drive design that precisely replicates the skeletal structure and joint distribution of the human hand, delivering superior performance in motion smoothness, control accuracy, and manufacturing consistency.
