China Accelerates Next-Generation Intelligent Terminals and Supporting Computing Infrastructure

China News Service reported that Shanghai recently convened real-machine competitions for embodied intelligence robots at the 2026 Global Developer Pioneers Conference and International Embodied Intelligence Skills Competition, seeking to accelerate deployment across real-world operational scenarios. According to the strategic emerging industry development plan released in August, Shanghai intends to construct new artificial intelligence consumer terminals encompassing artificial intelligence personal computers, mobile phones, glasses, bionic robots, and intelligent wearable equipment. At the industry fair held in Shanghai, Iluvatar CoreX presented its Tiangai 300 IXL144 supernode as the inaugural solution within its systematic supernode deployment architecture. The ongoing expansion of intelligent terminals requires stronger underlying computing power foundations, prompting multiple domestic computing power enterprises to achieve continuous technological breakthroughs and optimize their computing supply capacities.

Supernodes leverage high-speed interconnection techniques to consolidate substantial volumes of chips into an extensive computing pool. Iluvatar CoreX artificial intelligence and accelerated computing lead Tianyi Shan stated that supernodes must integrate chips into a unified organic whole to operate collaboratively rather than simply assembling discrete hardware pieces.
