Realworld Expands Logistics-Specific Physical AI Collaboration With CJ Logistics
TECHWORLD ·
✦ AI Summary
Realworld announced an expanded strategic partnership with CJ Logistics to develop and commercialize logistics-specific physical AI technology.
The two companies plan to jointly develop logistics-specific RFM solutions, select logistics processes, conduct a PoC, and expand the scope of application while advancing the technology.
They also plan to pursue the commercialization of LaaS based on logistics-specific physical AI and seek joint business opportunities in overseas markets.
Realworld announced an expanded strategic partnership with CJ Logistics to develop and commercialize physical AI technology specialized for the logistics industry. Realworld and CJ Logistics signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) covering the integration of AI technology with on-the-ground logistics capabilities.
The collaboration centers on jointly developing logistics-specific Robotics Foundation Model (RFM) solutions. The scope of cooperation will also expand from application in actual logistics processes to global commercialization.
Realworld said the core of the agreement lies in combining its RFM and physical AI software capabilities with CJ Logistics' on-site logistics expertise, operational infrastructure, and commercialization capabilities. It added that the goal is to develop and advance physical AI technologies that can be used in real logistics environments.
The two companies plan to jointly select the logistics processes where RFM will be applied first. They also plan to carry out a PoC (Proof of Concept) to verify core functions.
Based on the results after the PoC, the two companies plan to gradually expand the range of applicable processes. They also plan to step up the level of technical sophistication after the PoC.
Using the validation results they accumulate, the two companies plan to jointly pursue the commercialization of logistics-specific physical AI-based LaaS. LaaS is a concept in which companies can use logistics functions such as order fulfillment, storage, picking, packing, delivery, returns, and data analysis as a service without directly building or owning logistics centers, transport networks, or automation equipment. Starting with this collaboration, the two companies plan to identify joint business opportunities in overseas markets and use the technology and operational experience secured in Korea's logistics field as the foundation.
The two companies plan to leverage Realworld's global partner network and CJ Logistics' commercialization and market expansion capabilities. They also plan to pursue Co-GTM (co-marketing go-to-market) and strategic alliances. In addition, they plan to explore the potential for global LaaS commercialization based on logistics-specific RFM and physical AI solutions validated in Korea.
Ryu Joong-hee, CEO of Realworld, said that for physical AI to translate into productivity in industrial settings, it is essential to go beyond laboratory-level technical verification and accumulate real-world data, and that the accumulated field data must in turn be linked back to further advances in AI intelligence. Based on this, he said the company aims to combine CJ Logistics' on-site logistics and operational capabilities with Realworld's RFM and physical AI technologies to solve real logistics problems and build a logistics-specific physical AI model that can expand globally.
