Robots in China are doing it all now, even dancing on stage like pros. Here Unitree robots doing Webster flips and are performing at Chinese-American singer Wang Leehom’s concert in Chengdu.

The grace in every move, the rhythm in every turn of these humanoid robots. This is truly where engineering meets art.

Unitree robots performing at Leehom Wang's Concert moves are so smooths like real human.

And this video just impressed Elon Musk 🤯🤯🤯

Same concert, new angle.

The ultimate stamp of approval 🤯 Elon Musk just quote tweeted this video.

Futurism published a piece on this event. "Unitree's G1 robot has made its major stage debut by appearing alongside Chinese singer Wang Leehom during a Friday night concert in Chengdu, China. The concert was part of the Wang’s “Best Place Tour” and took place at the Chengdu Dong’an Lake Sports Park Multifunctional Gymnasium, which seats 18,000 spectators. “The performance marked a rare example of a Robotic Dancer in concert, blending advanced technology with powerful live music,” the singer’s website boasts. “As the opening beats of ‘Open Fire’ filled the venue, robotic dancers appeared and moved in perfect synchronization with Wang Leehom’s choreography.”" ht tps://futurism.com/robots-and-machines/robots-stage-backup-dancers

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

indeed.

this robots are better than humans - and this is scary if true

exactly.. isn't it.

Russia built a robot Joe Biden.

More coverage on this even on Wang Leehom's official site. ht tps://wangleehom.com/news/wang-leehom-with-robotic-dancer-at-chengdu-best-place-tour/

Now who thought of robot dancers too?? Damn. We all losing our jobs aren't we?

ha ha. no jobs are safe now 😅

A lot cheaper than hiring real dancers.

@toeNEON 😅

Effective use of robots. Wow

👍💯

Almost:

wow. cool

Which ones are the robots?

good question. 😄

Robots are even replacing background dancers

indeed. who would have thought that.

why are they so small?

Many reasons to keep Unitree G1's height short. Commercially, it makes them cheaper, lighter, and easier to ship. official spec lists height ~1320 mm, mass 35 kg, & it folds to about 690 mm, which keeps materials, actuators, and packaging costs down. thats how Unitree could position G1 near $16,000 as a research platform. Further, Physics wise, short lowers the center of mass, which increases tip-over margin for biped walking and manipulation. i.e. great for maintaining balance. And then short reduces required joint torques and inertia, so the robot can accelerate limbs with less power and heat. Bcz actuator and motor capability does not scale perfectly with size, and specific torque tends to cap out, so keeping link lengths small makes dynamic motions feasible without oversized motors or batteries. and then, short improves practicality in labs and competitions. A 130 cm class body fits tight indoor spaces, is safer around people.

Much appreciate this exhaustive reply, thank you Rohan!

actually yours was a v. good question, I also got curious and so did some quick reading around that.

I’ll be convinced when it dances like Steven Balmer at the Windows 95 rollout

😀

Waiting for the Robots to take charge of Traffic 🚦 management in India

Me waiting for that too.

And this is the robots spec performing those backflips in this video. Unitree G1 Price from $13.5K

They’re coming for our backup dancers. We cannot allow this to continue.

Are the Chinese way ahead of us in many ways just that nobody is admitting it?

2026 will see more adoption of robots than ever. Unitree is giving the DeepSeek vibes for humanoid robots

Oh yes, most research suggest it will ultimately be a multi-trillion dollar industry

Millennials are definitely the luckiest generation ever born. The science fiction we read growing up, is starting to exist in real life.

No offense, but who fucking cares about stupid robot tricks? Show them folding laundry or putting gas in my car.

Definitely impressive. So many scenarios run through my mind…strange but impressive.

yep, super

Woa this is amazing

👊👊

They got nothing on Optimus.

What are we humans left for 🤔

good question 😀🤔🤔

Leehom the Michael Jackson of Asia!

YESSS

I don’t like this Brave New World.

The US - China war will be settled by a dance-off and it's gonna be EPIC.
