Besides, it has also established three open systems of OrionStar Speech OS, OrionStar Robot OS and OrionStar Arm OS to deliver intelligent service robot solutions based on intelligent speech-based service robots, intelligent delivery service robots, and intelligent labor service robots. Meanwhile, AI-empowered solutions that cover speech, chip, vision, intelligent self-help devices, and indoor autonomous navigation solutions are also provided. With "intelligent service robots" and "AI-empowered" businesses as carriers, Cheetah Mobile is well poised for the upcoming intelligent upgrading of services and products in the AI and 5G era.
