Overview
- Beijing’s Yizhuang humanoid half marathon, co-hosted by the city and CCTV, concluded Sunday with Honor’s Shandian winning in 50:26 and the company claiming the top six places.
- The race ran autonomous and remote-control robots together but scored them differently, counting autonomous net times and multiplying remote-control results by 1.2 under the published rules.
- One remote-controlled Shandian was first across the line in 48:19, yet its adjusted time placed behind autonomous entries, showing how the weighting reordered the standings.
- Autonomy made clear gains across the weekend, with about 40% of teams using self-navigation and the Tiangong 3.0 humanoid winning the Warrior Challenge as a fully autonomous entrant.
- Operational support and supply depth were on display, with JD fielding robot ambulances on the course, Beijing unveiling a traffic‑police robot for trials, and Lens Technology detailing 132 high‑strength metal parts used in Honor’s robots.
