The platform is designed for universities and research institutions and will be available through Unitree by the end of 2026.
For companies like Eldar, once focused on conventional metal machining, the surge has opened a fast-growing niche supplying precision components used in next-generation cooling systems.
The two companies said they have already completed integration between Spirit AI’s open-source embodied model Spirit v1.5 and D-Robotics’ Sunrise S600 computing platform.
The release follows an extended, almost 3-month delay that industry sources attribute in part to a transition in training infrastructure from Nvidia GPUs to Huawei Ascend chips.
DeepSeek also rebuffed Nvidia’s request for early access to V4, providing exclusive access instead to Huawei and select Chinese chip manufacturers.
