Meili Robots and QNX Team Up to Accelerate Robotics Deployment and Innovation

Oct 30

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

COPENHAGEN, DENMARK, October 30, 2025 — Meili Robots, an innovator in universal fleet management software, and QNX, a division of BlackBerry Limited (NYSE: BB; TSX: BB), today announced a new collaboration aimed at simplifying the development and deployment of robotics solutions.

By combining Meili Robots’ expertise in intelligent, hardware-agnostic fleet management with QNX’s cutting-edge QNX® OS 8.0, the two companies aim to create a unified, robust, and scalable solution for building and managing modern robotic fleets. The forthcoming integration will ensure seamless compatibility across the entire technology stack, from the robot's core operating system to the fleet management level – addressing a critical industry challenge; fragmented hardware and software compatibility that often leads to complex integration efforts and delayed time-to-market. An early demonstration of the integration is expected to be available later this year.

QNX OS 8.0 is a next-generation operating system built on a future-ready architecture designed to maximise silicon advancements. Its advanced microkernel design ensures consistent, low-latency, and real-time performance, which is essential for compute-intensive applications like autonomous drive systems and industrial robots. The integration of this powerful OS with Meili Robots' software will provide customers with a complete solution that reduces development friction and accelerates the path from prototype to production.

"This collaboration with QNX marks a significant milestone in our mission to simplify and accelerate the adoption of robotics," said Aldus von der Burg, CEO of Meili Robots. "By collaborating with a company as respected and technologically advanced as QNX, we're not just offering another integration; we're creating a foundational layer of compatibility that will empower our customers to build safer, more reliable, and more efficient robotic systems with significantly less effort. This collaboration will truly help unlock the full potential of robotics for a wider range of industries."

For robotics developers and manufacturers, the benefits of this collaboration are substantial:

Accelerated Time-to-Market: The out-of-the-box compatibility between the two platforms will help reduce the time and resources required for development, testing, and integration.
Enhanced Functional Safety and Security: QNX empowers manufacturers to comply with stringent safety and security standards, such as IEC 61508 and IEC 62443, enabling the creation of industrial-grade, robust robotic systems.
Improved System Reliability: QNX OS 8.0's architecture includes advanced fault tolerance capabilities, allowing failed components to be restarted quickly without impacting the entire system, thereby minimising downtime.
Reduced Development Complexity: Developers can focus on innovation and core application logic rather than spending time on low-level system integration and compatibility issues.
