KingKong Technology × Maxic Technology | Deep Strategic Cooperation to Build a Robotics Intelligent Sensing Ecosystem
Recently, KingKong Technology and Maxic Technology, a leading domestic company in high-performance analog and mixed-signal chips, officially signed a strategic cooperation agreement. At the same time, Maxic Technology made a strategic investment in KingKong Technology. Taking this capital cooperation as an opportunity, the two parties will deepen collaboration around motion sensing for embodied intelligence, jointly build an intelligent sensing ecosystem for humanoid robots, seize a core entry point for next-generation AI hardware, and help accelerate China’s robotics industry toward a more advanced intelligent era.
Technical Foundation: The Rising Value of Magnetic Encoders in Embodied Intelligence
The humanoid robotics industry has entered a critical window for scaled development, with China remaining a core global growth pole and major market. 2026 is widely seen as an important inflection point for the humanoid robotics industry. According to industry forecasts, global humanoid robot shipments are expected to grow by more than 700% year over year, with China projected to account for more than 60% of the market and lead the global industry in scale. China is not only shaping global industry growth, but also unlocking significant potential and broad incremental space for domestic embodied intelligence sensing.
As a core direction of new productive forces, embodied intelligence is accelerating the transition of humanoid robots from laboratories to scaled mass production. Embodied intelligence emphasizes a real-time closed loop between robots and the physical world. Stable walking and agile movement are the first threshold for humanoid robots entering homes and industrial scenarios. High-precision sensing and stable motion control act like the robot’s “body cerebellum,” directly determining balance, posture, and motion accuracy. Today, a single humanoid robot carries 30 to 50 joints, and each joint relies on a high-precision magnetic encoder for accurate motion and posture feedback as well as closed-loop control. Through non-contact sensing, magnetic encoders convert mechanical motion into high-precision electrical signals and perform core functions such as angle acquisition, position feedback, and motion control. They have become the mainstream sensing solution for humanoid robot limbs, torso, and dexterous hand joints. As a core foundational component and indispensable motion sensing entry point for precise, smooth, and reliable robot movement, magnetic encoders are becoming a key part of humanoid robots moving from laboratories to mass production.
Ecosystem Collaboration: Building an Intelligent Sensing Matrix for Robotics
KingKong Technology is a benchmark enterprise in global robot core components. Its domestic market share for humanoid robot encoders exceeds 80%, and it has become a core supplier to leading robot body and joint manufacturers in China and abroad. With its original patterned magnetic encoding technology, the company has achieved full coverage across product lines including high-precision encoders, multidimensional sensing, high-precision actuators, and high-performance robots. Its products are widely used in humanoid robots, industrial automation, new energy vehicles, defense, medical applications, and other fields, with overseas customers across Europe, the United States, Japan, South Korea, Israel, and other markets.
Maxic Technology has long focused on high-performance analog and mixed-signal chips, with core products covering intelligent sensors, charging management chips, analog power chips, automotive electronics, and more. These products empower industries such as communications terminals, smart homes, and automotive electronics, while the company continues to expand into emerging tracks including robotics, new energy, and artificial intelligence. Building on core technologies such as optical sensing, 1D/3D ToF laser ranging, magnetic sensing, and multimodal fusion sensing, Maxic Technology is increasing scenario-based collaborative R&D for magnetic encoders, further expanding applications in robot motion sensing and movement coordination, broadening its intelligent sensing business, and strengthening its technical barriers. By deeply integrating high-precision sensing technology with robotic systems, Maxic Technology is committed to lowering R&D barriers for robot manufacturers, shortening integration cycles, improving system stability, and accelerating the industrialization of intelligent sensing technology.
Strategic Value: Chip-Level Integration Drives Industrial Upgrading
Through this cooperation, KingKong Technology and Maxic Technology will fully integrate their respective strengths in chip design, system design, and end applications to jointly promote innovation and development in the humanoid robotics industry. Based on their technical reserves in high-precision, miniaturized, and highly reliable sensors, the two parties will use chip-level deep customization and optimization to precisely match the intelligent sensing needs of humanoid robots, further break through performance limits, and upgrade mass production. This strategic cooperation has milestone significance for KingKong Technology as it leads industry technology innovation and promotes industrial upgrading.
Looking ahead, KingKong Technology will continue to rely on its dual strengths in foundational technology and deep terminal penetration, keep building a robotics intelligent sensing ecosystem, and inject long-term momentum into the high-quality development of the humanoid robotics industry.
