BlueRun Ventures Portfolio: Clointech Closes Series C++ Round, Prepares to Launch "Robe" Product Featuring One Depot, Two Drones --- Clointech (云圣智能) has completed its Series C++ financing, with BlueRun Ventures continuing to back the company. The Beijing-based industrial drone maker is set to unveil its latest product, codenamed "Robe" (战袍), which features a "one depot, two drones" system architecture. The new financing comes as Clointech scales its autonomous drone solutions across power grid inspection, emergency response, and smart city applications. The company's signature "unicorn" drone depots — which enable fully automated takeoff, landing, and battery swapping without human intervention — have become a fixture in China's critical infrastructure sectors. The upcoming "Robe" release represents an evolution of this platform, pairing a single ground station with two aerial units to expand operational coverage and redundancy. Clointech has not disclosed detailed specifications, though industry observers expect enhanced payload capacity and extended endurance for complex inspection missions. BlueRun Ventures, which led Clointech's earlier rounds, reaffirmed its position in this round. The firm has been an active investor in autonomous systems and robotics, with portfolio companies spanning intelligent vehicles to humanoid robots.
