Video: World’s first humanoid robot labor that swaps its own batteries to work endlessly | Jijo Malayil, Interesting Engineering Walker S2 uses dual-battery balancing and standardized modules to boost efficiency and ensure uninterrupted, optimized performance. In a leap for robotics, China’s UBTech has unveiled the Walker S2, the world’s first humanoid robot capable of fully autonomous battery swapping. Designed for non-stop industrial operations, the Walker S2 can replace its own power pack in just three minutes—no human intervention required. Equipped with advanced anthropomorphic bipedal locomotion and a hot-swappable battery system, Walker S2 is built to operate 24/7 across dynamic industrial environments. According to UBTech, the next-generation humanoid robot marks a major milestone in automation, bringing continuous, hands-free performance to the factory floor. In May 2025, UBTech Robotics and Huawei Technologies inked a significant partnership to accelerate the adoption of humanoid robots across China’s factories and households. Uninterrupted robot operations A video posted by the robotics firm opens with the sleek UBTech Walker S2 humanoid robot working in an industrial setting. The highlight, however, is its autonomous battery swap. Walker S2 approaches the charging station, carefully detaches its depleted power pack, and seamlessly installs a fresh one—all within about three minutes—without any human assistance, according to CGTN. The camera captures close-ups of the robot’s articulated limbs and the intelligent battery-handling mechanism, conveying precision and reliability. As the swap completes, Walker S2 resumes its duties, reinforcing the promise of uninterrupted, 24/7 operations in dynamic factory environments. UBTech’s Walker S2 humanoid robot is equipped with advanced dual-battery power balancing technology and uses standardized battery modules to optimize performance, reports CNEVPOST. This dual-battery system allows the robot to automatically switch to a backup battery in case of a main battery failure, ensuring that critical tasks are carried out without interruption. In addition to battery swapping, the robot can intelligently choose between charging and swapping based on task urgency, allowing it to manage energy dynamically and adapt to real-time operational demands. UBTech highlights these features as a step forward in deploying humanoid robots for industrial and domestic applications, combining flexibility, reliability, and autonomy in one intelligent platform. Factory intelligence upgrade Earlier in the year, UBTech unveiled a major advancement in humanoid robot collaboration, claiming the world’s first deployment of multiple humanoids working together across varied industrial tasks. Demonstrated at Zeekr’s 5G-enabled smart factory, the breakthrough centers on UBTech’s “BrainNet” framework, which orchestrates cooperative behavior through a cloud-device intelligence system. BrainNet integrates a “super brain” for high-level decision-making with an “intelligent sub-brain” for distributed multi-robot control. The super brain, powered by a proprietary large-scale multimodal reasoning model, handles complex production-line scheduling and decision-making. Meanwhile, the sub-brain coordinates real-time tasks using cross-field perception and Transformer-based control for dynamic adaptability. Together, they enable the Walker S1 humanoid robots to move beyond isolated operations and perform coordinated tasks with high precision and speed. The system is built on DeepSeek-R1 reasoning technology and trained on real-world data from automotive factory settings. Leveraging Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), the model adapts to specific job functions and improves scalability across workstations. At Zeekr’s facility, dozens of Walker S1s now collaborate on tasks like assembly, inspection, and part handling. Using semantic VSLAM and shared mapping, they coordinate seamlessly via vision-based navigation and agile manipulation. UBTech says this marks a transition to “Practical Training 2.0,” where humanoid robots operate as a swarm, maximizing efficiency and setting the stage for next-generation intelligent manufacturing.

Humanoid Marathon Champion "TienKung" Enters the Factory At IROS 2025, the Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center (BHRIC) and UBTECH officially launched the Software Development Kit (SDK) for their general-purpose embodied intelligence platform, "HuiSiKaiWu." This move signals a significant step towards an open-source embodied AI ecosystem. The HuiSiKaiWu platform is designed for ease of use and low-threshold deployment, enabling multi-agent collaboration (one brain, multiple functions/robots). The core "brain" uses a dual-model architecture: the Pelican VLM and the WoW World Model, driving autonomous learning and decision-making. The "cerebellum" includes the cross-body XR-1 VLA Model, which has shown strong performance in rapid, few-shot skill transfer across tasks. BHRIC simultaneously announced its first industrial application: since September 2025, the "TienKung 2.0" and "Tianyi 2.0" humanoids have been deployed at the Foton Cummins engine factory. They autonomously handle material bin fetching and transportation on the "unmanned production line," adapting to various goods and shelf heights. Foton Cummins highlighted the robots' high stability and generalization potential in complex industrial processes. Beyond industrial work, BHRIC showcased other applications: the high-performance "TienKung Ultra" is being used at the Li-Ning Sports Science Lab for running shoe tests, precisely simulating human gaits. The platform is expanding applications across manufacturing, logistics, and sports science. The HuiSiKaiWu SDK is now available for collaborative trials by research institutions and development teams, offering a full toolchain for skill calling and scene deployment. BHRIC plans to gradually open-source its core algorithms, including VLM and VLA models, and hosted the "X-Humanoid Young Talent Meetup" and the "2026 Re-Action Humanoid Robot Challenge" to build a comprehensive developer ecosystem.

A humanoid robot is now climbing vertical industrial tanks to weld, grind, inspect, and remove rust. 🧲🤖 This is RobotPlusPlus’ embodied-intelligence wall-climbing robot, now deployed in high-risk scenes across chemical plants, shipyards, and energy facilities. The upper body uses dual humanoid arms. The lower body uses a wheeled magnetic-adhesion chassis that lets the robot work on steel walls instead of flat factory floors. The reported specs are industrial, not demo-stage: 90 kg body weight, 15 degrees of freedom, 12 active arm joints, millisecond-level remote response, and tethered power for long-duration operation. The real advantage is tool switching. Swap the end effectors, and the same platform can move between welding, grinding, flaw detection, rust removal, spraying, and surface treatment. For operators, the workflow changes from climbing scaffolds or hanging in baskets to controlling the robot through a remote interface and VR glasses. RobotPlusPlus says its special-operation model has learned from 100,000+ hours of field work, 22,500 km of operating distance, and 5,000 km² of covered work area. This is where embodied AI starts to look useful: not dancing onstage, but taking tools into places humans should not have to enter.

Robot dogs are now welders! 👨🏼‍🏭 Path Robotics launches a mobile welding robot on quadruped platform, called Rove. This quadruped robotic welding system is paired with their Obsidian physical AI model. Obsidian already delivers autonomous, adaptive welding inside fixed cells. Rove brings intelligent welding to the part rather than moving the part to a fixed workstation. Shipbuilding, heavy construction, and large-scale fabrication share a constraint, massive assemblies and workpieces that cannot be moved or fixtured inside welding cells. These conditions have limited welding automation in environments that need it most, just as skilled welder shortages reach critical levels. Legged robots have long been considered too unstable for precision welding. Rove changes that. Obsidian provides the perception and adaptability needed to operate in high-variability environments. Saronic Technologies, a leader in autonomous maritime vessels, is one of the first early adopters, integrating Rove into its physical AI-powered shipbuilding operations in Franklin, Louisiana. 🇺🇸 Welding requires millimeter-level precision on a moving quadruped platform, considered impossible until AI-based perception and control made it feasible. 🔥 Andrew Lonsberry gotta be honest, but a welding robot dog wasn't on bingo card for 2026. ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

X Square Robot just closed its Series C at a valuation above RMB 20 billion, about $2.8 billion 🤖 IDG came into this round. The bigger signal is the cap table. HongShan and Xiaomi were already in across earlier rounds, while Meituan, Alibaba, ByteDance, and Xiaomi have each led rounds at different stages. That puts X Square in a rare position for an embodied AI company: top-tier financial capital on one side, and four of China’s biggest tech platforms on the other. This is not just a money story. Meituan, Alibaba, ByteDance, and Xiaomi bring very different strategic assets: real-world scenarios, cloud infrastructure, consumer traffic, supply chains, and hardware ecosystems. The deployment side is already moving: robot home-cleaning services first, then a “Robots Into Homes” program with the first batch entering real households. The model stack is worth watching too. X Square has open-sourced WALL-OSS-0.5 for robot manipulation and WALL-WM for world modeling. WALL-OSS-0.5 showed strong real-robot performance without post-training, while WALL-WM uses event-level prediction to align language, vision, and action around meaningful physical-world events. They are also building a model-driven data pipeline for large-scale collection, cleaning, annotation, quality control, and augmentation. That matters because home robotics dies in the long tail: weird rooms, messy objects, bad lighting, and tasks that never look the same twice. Founded in 2023, X Square is building general-purpose embodied AI robots and foundation models for real-world environments, tying models, robot hardware, high-precision manipulation, data, and deployment into one system.

WALL-OSS-0.5 showed strong real-robot performance without post-training, while WALL-WM uses event-level prediction to align language, vision, and action around meaningful physical-world events. They are also building a model-driven data pipeline for large-scale collection, cleaning, annotation, quality control, and augmentation. That matters because home robotics dies in the long tail: weird rooms, messy objects, bad lighting, and tasks that never look the same twice. Founded in 2023, X Square is building general-purpose embodied AI robots and foundation models for real-world environments, tying models, robot hardware, high-precision manipulation, data, and deployment into one system.

China-based TARS Robotics demonstrated a humanoid robot performing two-handed hand embroidery during a public showcase on December 22, marking a notable step in fine motor control for humanoid systems. The robot threaded a needle and stitched a logo using both hands with sub-millimeter accuracy, working with soft, flexible materials that are difficult for traditional industrial robots to handle due to deformation and variability. According to the company, this capability is enabled by a closed-loop "Data-Al-Physics" system that connects real-world data collection, embodied Al models, and physical execution, reducing the gap between simulation and real deployment. The models are said to be open source when released. Founded in February 2025, TARS Robotics has moved quickly from research to live demonstrations and has raised over $240 million in early funding from the Chinese government, reflecting growing interest in general-purpose humanoid robots for precision and dexterous tasks.
