In terms of robot brands, Zhiyuan Robotics appeared 31 times, Leju 15 times, UBTECH 13 times, and Yushu Technology and Galaxy General each 10 times. 65.96% of data collection centers use a single robot brand, while 34.04% adopt a multi-brand strategy, and cross-entity data reuse remains a challenge.Regarding data pricing, the current real machine data costs about 500 to 1,000 yuan/hour, UMI and other non-entity data costs about 300 to 400 yuan/hour, and simulated synthetic data costs about 200 to 500 yuan/hour, with remote operation collection accounting for 79.05%. The report points out that centralized data collection has not yet formed a stable commercial closed loop, with buyer growth lagging behind base expansion. Centers that primarily rely on one-time construction funding will face greater operational pressure, and the industry elimination race has already begun.
