Meet X-Origin Yonbo, the next-gen AI companion robot for kids and families. Using advanced multimodal AI, Yonbo listens, sees, thinks, remembers, and learns from you, accepting multiple inputs and process them at the same time to perform complex tasks.
He remembers your favorites and important dates, evolving his personality to match yours over time. With these innovations, Yonbo offers warm, personalized companionship that’s truly emotional and supportive.
Yonbo mimics human perceptions, growing and evolving through continuous interactions. Powered by a Consistency Personalized Large Language Model (CLLM), the more you engage with Yonbo, the deeper his understanding becomes—transforming him into your uniquely personalized companion.
Yonbo sees, hears, and thinks like a real companion. With a high-resolution camera, he recognizes people, objects, and his surroundings. A four-microphone array enables precise directional hearing, so he knows who’s speaking and where the sound is coming from. By combining what he sees and hears, Yonbo uses an intelligent AI analysis system to understand the user’s mood and state.
Yonbo comes with long-term memory that evolves with you. He summarizes your daily conversations and updates key topics to better understand your needs, habits, and moods. You can also ask him to remember important things — and he’ll make sure you don’t forget.
Yonbo communicates like a real human—natural, responsive, and context-aware. Powered by ChatGPT and local speech-to-text, he understands not just your words but the flow of conversation. You can interrupt him mid-sentence, and he’ll pause, listen, and continue seamlessly.
Yonbo actively senses your feelings by analyzing your facial expressions, tone of voice, and words in real time. He creates an emotional model from what he sees and hears, then responds with matching emotions through facial expressions, body language, and speech — making every interaction feel genuine, lively, and deeply engaging.
With 600+ combinations of facial expressions and movements, Yonbo actively expresses a wide range of emotions. You’ll never get bored talking with him — he shows excitement or shyness when praised, and genuine concern when you share that you’re feeling sad.
Yonbo grows with you, becoming a truly personalized companion. Powered by a Consistency Large Language Model, he remembers past conversations, learns from interactions, and continuously adapts to better understand and support you.
Yonbo is the perfect playmate with built-in games and storybooks that make learning fun and engaging.
What to play with Yonbo:
- Physical Games Under Storybooks’ Storylines
- Online Games that Support Multiple Players
- Limited Edition Games that Update Each Quarter
Yonbo is a patient teacher, offering language translation, homework guidance, and story interpretation. He helps children learn better while making it engaging and accessible.
Yonbo is a compassionate mental wellness mentor, using 30+ psychological assessment tools and 20+ guidance models to evaluate your mental state, detect early issues, and provide genuine, personalized support.
