YYForce Unveils NVIDIA-Powered Robotics Software For Hotels

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 22 (Bernama) -- YYForce Inc (YYForce), a workforce solutions provider, has announced its strategic plans to develop Workforce OS, a robotics operating system built on NVIDIA computing and robotics technology, starting with deployments in hotels.

YYForce in a statement said it is designed to let human workers operate alongside artificial intelligence (AI)-powered robots, including Unitree humanoid robots and other service robots.

“Our strategic objective is to own the software intelligence layer that makes diverse commercial robots truly useful in live business environments.

“By combining NVIDIA’s industry-defining physical AI computing stack with versatile hardware like Unitree humanoid platforms, we aim to bridge the gap between simulation and real-world execution,” said YYForce Chief Executive Officer, Mike Fu.

YYForce plans a phased roll-out in hotel settings. Over the first two months, it aims to set up robot navigation and guest-facing concierge services, followed by robotic arms for food and beverage service from months two to four.

By month six, it plans to run multi-robot operations, including pilot Unitree humanoid robots, at hotel banquets and events. In the longer term, it aims to extend the system to facility maintenance and industrial cleaning.

Workforce OS is designed to work across different robot hardware, covering computer vision, navigation, robotic arm control, conversational interaction and fleet management.

It will use NVIDIA Jetson edge AI modules on the robots for real-time perception and control and NVIDIA’s Isaac Sim and Project GR00T to train robots in simulation before real-world deployment.

YYForce is setting up a dedicated engineering team covering navigation, perception, motion control, AI models and systems architecture.
