China's TianGong Robot Advances Toward Practical Applications

Buzzline

The TianGong Ultra humanoid robot from China is transitioning from record-setting speed trials to real-world applications in the workplace. Created by X-Humanoid in Beijing, the Ultra completed 100 meters in 8.64 seconds at the World Humanoid Robot Games, surpassing Usain Bolt's record by nearly a second. Weighing 75 kilograms, this robot can reach speeds exceeding 17 meters per second and has been developed in conjunction with other TianGong models focused on mobility and industrial research. X-Humanoid robots have also been observed transporting 8–12 kilogram packages at a manufacturing facility in Beijing. Engineers are now working to enhance the robot's reliability and everyday functionality.

00:00China's Tiangong Ultra Humanoid Robot is moving from the racetrack toward real-world work.

00:05At the World Humanoid Robot Games, Ultra completed the 100-meter sprint in just 8.64 seconds.

00:12That was nearly one second faster than Usain Bolt's world record.

00:16But for engineer Jack Guo, speed is only the beginning.

00:19His team at Beijing's ex-humanoid now wants to make the robots more reliable and useful.

00:25Ultra weighs 75 kilograms and can exceed speeds of 17 meters per second.

00:30Engineers have been testing its movement, repairing damaged machines, and improving its control systems.

00:36The smaller Tiangong Omni has already climbed from the first floor to the 17th floor of the company's headquarters.

00:43Ex-humanoid robots have also been tested moving 8 to 12 kilogram boxes at a Beijing engine factory.

00:49Guo says humanoid robots must become stable before smarter AI can handle complex tasks independently.

00:56Future versions of Ultra could eventually be used for outdoor inspections or emergency rescue.

01:02The next challenge is turning record-breaking speed into dependable everyday work.
