On February 12, 2026, it was announced that the Xin Yan Group’s robot “Babu” will be featured as a special family companion robot during the Beijing Radio and Television Spring Festival Gala on the evening of February 17, marking the Lunar New Year.
Leveraging over a decade of data from its AI emotional companionship platform, CeCe App, which boasts a massive emotional corpus at the trillion-token level, the Xin Yan robot is equipped with capabilities such as emotional perception and expression, spatial awareness and autonomous movement, active interaction, and intelligent imaging.
At the algorithmic level, the Xin Yan Group has developed the Xinyuan series of large models, which have been deeply optimized for emotional companionship scenarios. For instance, the Xinyuan large language model series utilizes a multi-agent system architecture in conjunction with the MCP (Model Context Protocol), RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation), and long-memory modules to provide users with professional analysis and emotional companionship dialogues.
The Xinyuan multimodal large model series includes visual reasoning models, speech recognition models, and speech synthesis models. These are designed to enhance user interaction through multimodal understanding and innovative experiences in dialogue scenarios.
Additionally, the Xinyuan embodied large model series, centered around xyVLA, integrates dynamic real-time data from various sensors. Powered by xyAgentOS, it enables the robot to perform multiple functions, including physical spatial awareness and autonomous movement, emotional action perception and expression, long-term memory, active interaction, and intelligent imaging generation.
