The round was described as a financing for the robotics development infrastructure company, not a sale or SPAC merger, and the capital was intended to accelerate the Sunrise chip portfolio and an end-to-end software platform for robot development. The strategic rationale centered on expanding D-Robotics' robotics computing stack across multiple performance tiers and strengthening software covering data collection, model training, simulation, verification, and deployment for embodied AI and humanoid robots. Coverage also described the company as a Chinese robotics chip startup spun off from Horizon Robotics, with the financing supporting growth in its chip and software businesses and broader robotics industry development. D-Robotics is a Chinese robotics technology company focused on robotics development infrastructure and the Sunrise chip family. Reported operating scale included Sunrise chip shipments above 8 million units and more than 20 customers, with named customers including UBTECH and Fourier. The company positioned the new capital to expand its product portfolio and software platform across the robot development chain.

The company was spun out of the AIoT unit of Horizon Robotics in early 2024 and supplies chips, computing platforms and general-purpose hardware and software infrastructure for consumer robots and embodied AI. Its products include the RDK S600 development platform and the HoloBrain and HoloMotion model systems, and it reported that shipments rose 180% last year. It is based in Shenzhen.

In May 2025, D-Robotics raised approximately $100 million in Series A funding from investors including 5Y Capital and Hillhouse Capital (GL Ventures spinoff). This was followed by a Series B round in June-July 2025, raising $120 million (US$119.1 million consideration via 249,736,023 preferred shares, with US$83.1 million cash received per interim report), backed by investors such as GL Ventures, 5Y Capital, and others matching the query like Linear Venture. Horizon Robotics, the $13.9 billion autonomous driving tech parent company, retains control via voting rights until conversion. Observers estimated an implied pre-money valuation near US$450 million based on share counts from HKEX filings; post-money figures await full tranche closure. The Series B extends runway into 2027, supporting product roadmap, hiring, and silicon development amid competitive dynamics in robotics. Preferred shares include standard anti-dilution, liquidation preferences, and conversion rights. Additional investors noted in later updates include Aramco Ventures in December 2025, but the May/June 2025 raises align with lead investors 5Y Capital, GL Ventures, and Linear Venture.
