Rice Robotics推出了Minibot M1，这是唯一在加密货币上付款的朋友

赖斯机器人是一家位于香港的机器人技术创业公司

Hong Kong-based robotics startup, Rice Robotics, has announced the launch of its AI-powered companion robot, the Minibot M1, developed in partnership with Floki. The robot will be powered by the decentralized RICE AI protocol and feature a combination of everyday support tasks and emotional interaction designed to foster a unique companion-like presence with users.

总部位于香港的机器人技术创业公司Rice Robotics已宣布与Floki合作开发其AI驱动的同伴机器人Minibot M1。该机器人将由分散的大米AI协议提供动力，并结合日常支持任务和情感互动，旨在促进与用户的独特伴侣般的存在。

To support the launch of the Minibot M1, an interactive companion robot, and the decentralized RICE AI protocol, the startup is introducing the $RICE token. The token will be launched on TokenFi Launchpad, with staking opportunities available for holders of $TOKEN, the native token of TokenFi. Airdrops of $RICE will be issued to both token holders and stakers of $FLOKI and $TOKEN.

为了支持Minibot M1的推出，交互式伴侣机器人和分散的大米AI协议，该初创公司正在介绍$ rice令牌。该令牌将在Tokenfi Launchpad上推出，并为Tokenfi的原住民代币提供了固定机会。 $大米的气滴将向代币持有者和$ floki和$ token的Stakers发出。

The Minibot M1, a product of the partnership between Rice Robotics and Floki, is a companion robot that integrates household management, online information retrieval, and interactive entertainment to provide a responsive presence for users. The robot will be capable of tasks such as adjusting home heating, setting reminders for medication, and engaging in conversations on a variety of topics.

Minibot M1是Rice Robotics和Floki之间合作伙伴关系的产品，是一款伴侣机器人，可集成家庭管理，在线信息检索和交互式娱乐，以为用户提供响应良好的影响力。机器人将能够完成诸如调整家庭供暖，设置药物的提醒以及进行各种主题的对话等任务。

Moreover, users interacting with the robot in a helpful or engaging manner will earn $RICE tokens in return, forming part of a broader data collection and training ecosystem for the robotic intelligence.

此外，以有益或引人入胜的方式与机器人互动的用户将获得$ rice代币的回报，这是机器人智能的更广泛的数据收集和培训生态系统的一部分。

“We are excited to be launching the Minibot M1 and the $RICE token,” said Dr. Yuanyi Wu, founder of Rice Robotics. “The Minibot M1 is a unique companion robot that we believe will bring joy and convenience to users' lives. We are also proud to be partnering with TokenFi to launch the $RICE token, which will play a key role in the development of the RICE AI protocol.”

赖斯机器人公司的创始人Yuanyi Wu博士说：“我们很高兴推出Minibot M1和$ Rice Token。” “ Minibot M1是一个独特的伴侣机器人，我们相信它将为用户的生活带来欢乐和便利。我们也很自豪能够与Tokenfi合作推出$ rice Token，这将在Rice AI协议的开发中发挥关键作用。”

The Minibot M1 builds upon the capabilities of the robots already deployed by Rice Robotics for commercial delivery services in Japan. These robots are currently used for tasks such as unmanned indoor delivery for 7-Eleven Japan and office services at SoftBank headquarters. The startup has also secured pre-Series A funding of over $7 million earlier this year.

Minibot M1建立在日本稻米机器人已经部署的机器人的能力上。这些机器人目前用于任务，例如在Softbank总部为7-11日本的无人室内交付和办公室服务。该初创公司还为今年早些时候获得了超过700万美元的资金。

The investment is led by Alibaba Entrepreneurs Fund, Soul Capital, and Audacy Ventures, and follows a $5 million seed funding round in 2021. Among the investors are Nvidia, Dubai Future Foundation, NTT Japan, and Mitsui Fudosan.

这项投资由阿里巴巴企业家基金，灵魂资本和听觉合资企业领导，并在2021年进行了500万美元的种子融资。在投资者中，有NVIDIA，迪拜未来基金会，日本NTT和Mitsui Fudosan。

The startup is working toward a decentralized data-sharing model where robots can autonomously exchange training data to improve performance without centralized oversight. This vision aligns with Floki’s broader strategy of tokenizing AI and facilitating blockchain-enabled services. Through its sister project TokenFi, Floki aims to expand into the tokenization of real-world assets and data, including AI-generated content and robotic learning models.

该初创公司正在朝着分散的数据共享模型努力，机器人可以自主交换培训数据以提高绩效而无需集中监督。这种愿景与Floki的更广泛的AI化和促进区块链的服务相吻合。 Floki通过其姊妹项目Tokenfi，旨在扩展到现实世界中的资产和数据的令牌化，包括AI生成的内容和机器人学习模型。

The AI robotics sector is currently valued at approximately $22 billion and is projected to exceed $100 billion by 2030, according to industry estimates.

根据行业估计，AI机器人行业目前的价值约为220亿美元，预计到2030年将超过1000亿美元。
