After the Beijing Winter Olympics, the world’s attention once again focuses on the National Speed Skating Hall. The World Humanoid Robot Sports Competition recently welcomed its first competition day after the opening, with robot companies and universities from around the globe gathering on the field, painting a new picture of technology. (According to the Beijing Daily report on August 16)
From human dancers and robot dancers performing the dance “Soul of the Terracotta Warrior”, to top global robot football teams competing on the same stage… The World Humanoid Robot Sports Competition is not only a concentrated display of robot technology but also allows us to feel the surging vitality of innovative China.
Four months ago, during the humanoid robot “half marathon”, the domestic robot “Tiangong” made a stunning appearance with semi-autonomous running technology; at this competition, it has upgraded to a more technically challenging fully autonomous running mode. Such rapid technological iteration is strongly supported by a favorable policy environment. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the “Guiding Opinions on the Innovative Development of Humanoid Robots”, and various regions have introduced policies and funding support tailored to their development needs, guiding technical breakthroughs and ensuring the industry’s development. The precise drip irrigation of policies and the innovative vitality of the market create a “resonance effect”, driving the rapid development of China’s robot industry. Research institutions predict that by the end of this year, the market size of embodied intelligence in China will exceed 970 billion yuan.
The exciting competitions where robots run faster and jump higher vividly showcase the attractiveness of China’s innovation ecosystem, becoming a window to observe the speed of innovation. It is believed that with continuous technological advancements and new scenarios emerging, humanoid robots will more quickly and effectively integrate into our production and daily lives, and innovative China will write even more brilliant chapters.
