BEIJING, Sept. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — SenseRobot, an artificial intelligence (AI) home robotics brand, has unveiled a new addition to its AI-powered chess robot series, SenseRobot Chess. SenseRobot Chess has achieved a significant breakthrough, mastering complex engineering challenges that allow its intelligent robotic arms to precisely grasp and position 3D chess pieces — marking a first in household robotics. Chess players can now enjoy an immersive human-machine gaming experience anytime, anywhere.

The main challenge in developing SenseRobot Chess was the recognition and manipulation of chess pieces that are of different shapes and sizes. To overcome this challenge, SenseRobot developed an innovative structure and algorithm for the robotic arms and incorporated a three-fingered claw for precise handling of 3D pieces. Equipped with a proprietary AI engine, SenseRobot Chess categorizes its gameplay into 25 levels, offering players of all skill levels a variety of game modes. It also offers a range of other features, including training exercises, skill challenges, game analysis, making it the perfect companion for chess enthusiasts.

In a thrilling debut match, SenseRobot Chess took on Hou Yifan, a four-time Women’s World Chess Champion. Known for becoming a grandmaster at the age of 13 and winning her first Women’s World Chess Championship at 16, Hou is celebrated as the youngest world champion in history. In this highly anticipated match between Hou and SenseRobot Chess, Hou showcased her exceptional skills from the first move, setting the stage for an intense battle.
