China Showcases Advancements In Humanoid Robotics At Lunar New Year Gala

The Lunar New Year celebrations in China have once again showcased the country's advancements in humanoid robotics. Four startups, Unitree Robotics, Galbot, Noetix, and MagicLab, demonstrated their products at the highly anticipated gala, which is comparable to the Super Bowl in the United States. The event featured a range of impressive performances, including a fight sequence that mimicked the "drunken boxing" martial arts style, highlighting the robots' ability to coordinate and recover from faults. And then there was the opening sketch, which prominently featured ByteDance's AI chatbot Doubao. This was followed by a comedy skit where four Noetix humanoid robots shared the stage with human actors. The program also included a synchronized dance performance by MagicLab robots and human performers to the song "We Are Made in China." According to NBC News, this year's gala is particularly significant, given the growing hype surrounding China's humanoid robot sector. The sector is expected to see major players, including AgiBot and Unitree, prepare for initial public offerings this year. Domestic artificial intelligence startups are also releasing new models during the lucrative Lunar New Year public holiday. It's worth noting that last year's gala featured 16 full-size Unitree humanoids performing in unison with human performers
