One small step for humanoids, a giant step for industry

China Daily  

By WANG KEJU | China Daily | Updated: 2024-04-25 07:44 Humanoid robots are on display at the World Robot Conference held in Beijing in August last year. The robot, Walker S produced by Chinese AI and humanoid robotics company UBTech Robotics, offers a glimpse into a future where humanoid robots could be seamlessly integrated into various industries. A separate report by the Research Institute of the People's Daily Online showed that as of May last year, China had emerged as the global leader in both patent filings and valid patents for humanoid robot technology standing at 6,618 and 3,110, respectively, while global patent applications surpassed 15,000. The complexity of humanoid robot technology, coupled with the need to cater to multiple human needs, also further drives up development costs and extends the research and development cycle, Zhang said.
