M-Robots OS (OpenHarmony-based Robot OS)

A Chinese robot operating system built on open-source HarmonyOS, focused on multi-robot collaboration.

M-Robots OS is a robot operating system reportedly led by Shenzhen KaiHong Digital Industry Development Co. (深开鸿), built on top of OpenHarmony, the open-source HarmonyOS project incubated by the OpenAtom Foundation. The problem it's trying to solve is that robots and devices from different manufacturers and with different chips each run their own separate system, making it hard for them to connect and collaborate. M-Robots OS draws on HarmonyOS capabilities like its distributed soft bus to let heterogeneous robots discover each other, communicate, and divide up work. It occupies the same layer of the software stack as ROS 2, but its ecosystem and focus lean toward domestic Chinese technology and multi-device collaboration, and it's currently being promoted mainly through universities and industry alliances.
