Human-shaped bipedal robots from companies such as Unitree Robotics and X-Humanoid kicked off the event – officially known as the World Humanoid Robot Games – by competing in a 1,500-metre run in Beijing on Friday.<\/p>\n

Chinese robotics darling Unitree, based in Hangzhou, was the clear winner in the first race, with its H1 humanoid securing first and third places.<\/p>\n

Beijing-based X-Humanoid’s Tien Kung Ultra, which won the world’s first half-marathon featuring both human and robot runners in April, came in second.<\/p>\n

The H1, priced at 650,000 yuan (US$90,526), was the same model that performed the Chinese folk dance Yangge<\/em> at this year’s Spring Festival Gala, alongside a troupe of human dancers.<\/p>\n

Unitree founder and CEO Wang Xingxing told local news portal Phoenix News that the performance of its H1 robots in the 1,500-metre race was “meaningful”, as the model was the first humanoid the company ever made.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
