Wetour Robotics Limited, an AI-driven travel and wearable robotics company based in Austin, Texas, has appointed Bin Lian as Chief Technology Officer and Yu-Tien Chiu as Chief Marketing Officer. The company is gearing up for a mid-May 2026 launch of its Orchestra platform, which integrates real-time human-machine interaction through wearable robotics. The new leadership additions aim to accelerate development and commercialization of this innovative Physical AI infrastructure.

Key Points

  • Appointment of Bin Lian as CTO to lead development of Orchestra's advanced human-machine interaction technologies.
  • Yu-Tien Chiu named CMO to drive brand strategy and market launch for Orchestra and the developer ecosystem.
  • Wetour Robotics plans a public demonstration and product launch event in mid-May 2026 for its Orchestra platform, targeting wearable robotics and Physical AI markets.

Austin, TX, April 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wetour Robotics Limited (NASDAQ: WETO) ("Wetour Robotics" or the "Company"), a Physical AI infrastructure and wearable robotics company headquartered in Austin, Texas, today announced the appointment of Bin Lian as Chief Technology Officer to lead the development of the Company's Orchestra human-machine interaction platform and Yu-Tien Chiu as Chief Marketing Officer.

Mr. Lian holds a Bachelor of Science in Materials Physics from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), one of China's top-ranked research universities, and is a Ph.D. candidate in Mechanical Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin. His academic training spans materials science, mechanical systems, and computational methods — a cross-disciplinary foundation well suited to the systems engineering challenges of Physical AI, including edge computing, real-time signal processing, and electromechanical system coordination.

As CTO, Mr. Lian will lead the Company's Austin-based engineering team and oversee the development of Orchestra's VisionLink camera-based visual scene recognition with real-time actuator command delivery, and Conductor EMG-based real-time continuous neural gesture classification module. His immediate focus is preparing the full closed-loop Orchestra demonstration for the Company's planned Mid-May 2026 product launch event.

"Building Orchestra requires an engineer who thinks across disciplines — from signal processing to mechanical actuation to real-time safety systems," said Nan Zheng, Chief Executive Officer of Wetour Robotics. "Bin's training in both materials science and mechanical engineering gives him the range to lead a platform that spans sensors, computing, and physical devices. We are building something new at Wetour Robotics, and Bin is the right person to lead that effort."

"Orchestra is a new platform built from the ground up to solve a problem nearly no existing system addresses — coordinating human intent with physical machines in real time on a portable edge device," said Bin Lian, Chief Technology Officer of Wetour Robotics. "I joined Wetour Robotics because this is a unique engineering challenge, and the opportunity to build it from scratch, as part of a dedicated team in Austin, is compelling."

Ms. Chiu, an alumna of Babson College, will lead brand strategy, market positioning, and go-to-market execution for the Orchestra platform and the Company's planned Orchestra Builders Alliance developer ecosystem as the Chief Marketing Officer.
