D-Robotics raises $400M Series C led by Mirae Asset to scale AI chips

Its chips have already shipped over 8 million units, showing embodied AI hardware is moving from pilots into mass production.

• D-Robotics closed a $400 million Series C led by Mirae Asset, with Meituan and government-backed investors including Hefei Guotou also participating.
• D-Robotics builds hardware-software infrastructure for AI robots, centered on its Sunrise chip series and RDK developer kits used across humanoid and industrial robotics.
• The funds will expand the Sunrise chip lineup across all compute tiers and build a software platform spanning the full robot development chain, from data collection to deployment.
• Cumulative Sunrise chip shipments have topped 8 million units, and D-Robotics says revenue grew several times year-over-year in the first half of 2026.
• The Sunrise S600 embodied-AI chip, launched in November 2025, has been adopted by more than 20 customers within six months, including UBTECH, Astribot and FOURIER.
• D-Robotics' Gravity Program has backed over 500 robotics startups across 10 categories, while its platform now serves 500-plus universities and 100,000-plus developers in 20-plus countries.
• The round signals embodied-AI chipmakers are shifting from research bets to real production revenue as humanoid and industrial robots scale past pilot programs.
