World's First: Unitree Humanoid Robot Autonomous Walking Challenge in −47.4°C Extreme Cold🥳 −47.4°C, 130,000 steps, 89.75°E, 47.21°N… On the extremely cold snowfields of Altay, the birthplace of human skiing, Unitree's humanoid robot G1 left behind a unique set of marks.

Why is it wearing a jacket?

-47°C and still walking Humans aren’t the benchmark anymore

Should have been in a penguin costume

Wonder how many battery charges this took? Is single charge possible?

How many times did it need a recharge?

"look ma! I can walk across Antarctica!" "thats nice honey, now clean your room and do the dishes."

Get this guy a Snowboard an see what he can do. 🏂

@NASAWatch Here’s a post with a map of the Altay area, where Unitree is testing this robot.

Yeah. Good story, bro. How many battery changes/recharges?

But why?

@elonmusk we all look forward to images of Optimus assembling living quarters on the Moon and Mars. In the meantime send it up Mt. McKinley…

Sure, a robot can walk 130,000 steps in -47.4°C. But can it make a real-time ethical decision under thermal degradation, battery loss, and GPS drift — without phoning home? Cold steps are cute.

Yeah, that's what we want robots to do. Go hiking, I guess. So we don't have to hike anymore...? whut

Impressive milestone. Autonomous operation at −47.4°C shows how far humanoid robots have moved beyond controlled lab environments. From a deployment perspective, performance in extreme cold also brings new challenges around transportation, environmental protection, and cross-border delivery. At ForePax, we see these real-world conditions as an important part of preparing humanoid robots for global deployment. Congratulations to the Unitree team on this achievement.

Can it hike all the way to Agartha, @Neuschwabia ?

just want to know how long it took ?

🤦‍♂️ needed a plastic bags for joint means you haven’t even built it for snow how are you going to survive the reserve?

How did it reach there and how may recharges did it take?

@xviddl download the video

@grok deed ie alles zonder laadbeurt qua energie ?

Tamppaaja onkin nykyään robotti, ei Kummeliäijä Erik Loka. 👍😆

This is extraordinary, a very extreme room temperature test, then a test at the hottest temperature too to find out the maximum temperature it can withstand at what degrees.

all set up tests to see if robots can colonise the moon or mars before humans can arrive

Is it going to ski next?

Yeah, it's a robot. I'd expect no less. Just wait till they start carrying guns...

centimeter-accuracy satellite navigation!

Is this real @grok ?

Pretty Cool! Well done! 🤖❄️☃️

W China

Will human life be better with humanoids ?

Impressive cold performance.. what about heat ?
