Japanese technology media outlet #Nikkei xTECH disassembled a Chinese #humanoid #robot #Unitree G1 to examine its engineering and design. From screws and battery to its leg mechanism, the analysis offers a closer look at what powers the robot. The reporter concluded that narrowing the gap with China in humanoid robotics "would be difficult to achieve overnight."

Humanoid Long Jump. The G1 humanoid from Unitree Robotics has completed a long jump of 1.4 meters - possibly the longest jump ever achieved by a humanoid robot of its size in the world, standing only 1.32 meters tall. The G1 has up to 43 joint motors and a dexterous three-fingered hand, designed for precise manipulation and AI research. Priced from $16,000, it features robust Sim2Real capabilities, making it a compelling choice for robotics developers.

Last night, China Central Television (CCTV) aired its 2026 Chinese New Year Gala celebrating the Year of the Horse. The show featured a wide range of performances, including Unitree Robotics humanoid robots performing martial arts in sync with human dancers. Just a year ago, Unitree’s robots appeared at the same gala, but their movements looked stiff and mechanical. This year, they were noticeably more fluid and coordinated — a remarkable improvement, even if they’re still likely operating under some level of remote supervision. When it comes to humanoid robotics, most of the visible momentum today seems to be coming from the U.S. and China. Companies like Tesla (with Optimus) and Boston Dynamics in the U.S., alongside rapidly advancing Chinese firms, dominate the headlines. So what happened to Europe and Japan? Japan was once seen as the global leader, especially with Honda’s ASIMO and SoftBank Robotics’ humanoid projects. However, ASIMO was retired, and much of Japan’s robotics focus shifted toward industrial automation and service robots rather than full-scale general-purpose humanoids. Europe, meanwhile, remains strong in industrial robotics, research, and precision engineering — with players like ABB and KUKA — but hasn’t pushed aggressively into commercial humanoid platforms at the same scale or speed as the U.S. and China. In short, it’s less that Europe and Japan disappeared, and more that the center of gravity in humanoid robotics — especially AI-driven, general-purpose humanoids — has shifted toward U.S.–China competition. Whether that gap widens or narrows will depend on breakthroughs in embodied AI, cost reduction, and real-world deployment over the next few years.

China asserts dominance in the humanoid race Yesterday, China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) announced key 2025 achievements in AI and robotics: - The embodied intelligence sector (AI-integrated robotics) attracted over 40 billion yuan ($5.7B) in financing and involved more than 350 companies. - Humanoid robotics surged, with domestic manufacturers exceeding 140 and more than 330 humanoid models released. A separate report by market research firm Omdia shows that global shipments of Chinese humanoids exceeded 13,000 units. Here's a glimpse of a humanoid factory in Shanghai:

Another humanoid robotics startup, Norway-based Physical Robotics, is out of stealth. The company was founded by Phuong Nguyen, a co-founder of Halodi Robotics (now rebranded as 1X Technologies). He was Chief Science Officer at Halodi for eight years, leading the development of the EVE robot. The new company's mission is to “create a generation of robots that live in harmony with humans in the physical world, enhancing the quality of human life.” Last week, the company announced the closing of a $4 million seed round. Here's the upper body concept of their humanoid, the π robot.

Sundar Pichai on the robotics opportunity: ⦿ He's impressed by recent humanoid progress - so much so that he sometimes has to look closely to tell if a robot video is real or fake. ⦿ Google initially moved too early into the application layer, but now sees the combination of AI and robotics as the “sweet spot.” ⦿ He believes we’re 2–3 years away from a “magical moment” in robotics. ⦿ Google is working on playing a role similar to Android in robotics - one of its internal bets is already focused on supporting robotics manufacturers. ⦿ Gemini robotics models will work very well - how to productize them is still an open question at the company.

Humanoid robots are being born in China every day. Blue Worm Robotics, a startup from Xi’an, has officially unveiled its first humanoid robot. It moves on omnidirectional wheels, features a lifting torso, and has a look that’s almost like a Transformer. It runs in a hybrid mode of human teleoperation plus AI autonomy, and with its gripper design, it shows strong potential for use in electronics manufacturing and warehouse logistics. It made its debut at this year's World Humanoid Robotics Games in Beijing, winning third place in the warehouse sorting category.

Genki Robotics, a new humanoid robotics startup, is headquartered in Tokyo, Japan. It's founded by Andy Rubin, the founder of Android, who was a Google executive for nine years. Rubin led Google’s robotics division during 2013–14, which included Boston Dynamics, which Google had acquired. Andy Rubin’s investment firm invested in Agility Robotics in 2018. Genki Robotics's vision "is to accelerate the integration of intelligent humanoids into society — augmenting human capability and shaping the future of work and service." The company is backed by Andreessen Horowitz and AMD, among others. Here's Andy Rubin in 2018 talking about why the bipedal form makes sense, with Agility's Cassie robot on stage
