Overview
- Chief director Yu Lei said this year’s program deliberately concentrated robot performances to present a multidimensional picture of China’s robotics industry.
- Domestic firms Unitree, Songyan Dynamics, Magic Atom and Galaxy General appeared across skits, martial arts and dance, with Unitree debuting high‑dynamic cluster control in “Wu BOT” and Songyan presenting a lifelike 1:1 Cai Ming replica.
- The production integrated advanced stage and broadcast technology, including a 5,584‑module flipping horse installation and the first use of phone‑shot vertical feeds in the broadcast pipeline via Huawei Mate 80 devices.
- Galaxy General reported hundreds of Galbot G1 orders within 24 hours and moved to ramp capacity, while JD recorded sharp increases in robot searches, inquiries and orders during the show.
- ByteDance’s Doubao recorded 1.9 billion AI interactions and distributed over 100,000 tech gifts and cash, as Unitree targeted 10,000–20,000 humanoid shipments in 2026 while noting applications remain early due to technical constraints.
