YY Group Launches Humanoid Robotics Training Lab in Singapore
YY Group (YYGH) announced the next stage of the AI training data strategy it introduced on April 22: the launch of its Humanoid Robotics Training Lab in Singapore, complemented by pilot deployments of humanoid robots in two of Singapore's commercial retail and hospitality facilities. The Singapore lab will complement the Johor, Malaysia AI training and data collection facility YY Group announced in April. Both facilities will capture structured, real-world human activity data - drawing on the company's network of over 500,000 workers across hospitality, food and beverage, facility maintenance, security and other service roles - and use that data to train and refine service robots for deployment alongside human workers in live service environments. The Singapore lab, which will operate on Nvidia (NVDA) accelerated computing technology, will also serve as an exhibition space for client demonstrations. To augment its training data capture and transition these robotic capabilities from the lab to the market, the company is partnering with a shopping mall and luxury hotel in Singapore to pilot humanoid robot deployments in real-world service settings. They will work side-by-side with human professionals, allowing the company to gather operational data and physical-interaction telemetry to further refine robots' spatial awareness and task performance while also increasing human teams' efficiency.
