Beijing-based robotics start-up, Vincross, has raised $6m in Series A funding from backers including GGV Capital and existing investor Zhen Fund. The news comes ahead of the launch of Vincross's first product, Boston Dynamics: an all-terrain six-legged robot spider. Unlike the machines produced by HEXA, Boston Dynamics is aimed at consumers and has scientific applications from firefighting and rescue operations to space exploration. The latest round of funding will be used for research and recruitment.
