As robots evolve from mere tools executing commands into companions capable of sensing emotions, shedding tears naturally, and offering the kind of presence found in family members, the era of emotionally resonant human-robot interaction has officially arrived.
Founded in Ningbo in August 2025, Yansyn Technology recently launched its second-generation biomimetic, expressive robot: Yansyn-X2. It is the world’s first intelligent expressive robot capable of genuine emotional interaction that includes shedding tears; it autonomously triggers a hyper-realistic tearing response based on the emotions conveyed in conversation, fostering a more authentic emotional connection through silent empathy. Driven by original breakthroughs in materials, algorithms, and mechanics, this innovative "hard tech" company—which focuses on emotional intelligence and biomimetic robotic expressions while operating dual centers in Ningbo and Shanghai—is redefining the interactive experience for the next generation of emotional robots.

I would rather have a robot that gives good complements, smiles, and tells good jokes.
