Beijing on the Chinese mainland is hosting the 2025 World Humanoid Robot Games, an electrifying showcase where 280 teams from 16 countries spanning five continents push the boundaries of speed, strength and intelligence.
Steel Sprinters Blaze the 100m Track
At the National Speed Skating Oval, humanoid sprinters powered by cutting-edge actuators and adaptive AI algorithms race down the track, each stride refined to slice precious milliseconds off their times. Fans watch in awe as these mechanical athletes edge ever closer to human-level performance.
Mechanical Strikers Face Off in Soccer Battles
On a custom turf pitch, robot teams deploy real-time vision systems and dynamic decision-making to dribble, pass and shoot against rival machines. Every goal is a milestone in computer vision, path planning and synchronized teamwork.
Precision Tasks in Simulated Factories, Warehouses and Hospitals
Beyond sports, humanoids tackle complex scenarios—from sorting packages in a warehouse mock-up to assisting in virtual hospital wards. These challenges highlight how agile manipulators and AI-driven planning could transform industries from logistics to healthcare.
A Global Stage for Next-Gen Robotics
With participants from Europe, Asia, the Americas, Africa and Oceania, the Games are more than a competition—they are a melting pot of innovation. Teams collaborate, share breakthroughs and drive the open exchange of ideas that will define the robotic landscape of tomorrow.
Reporting live from the heart of the action, reporters Liu Jiaxin and Gou Tianqi capture the electrifying moments redefining the future of sports and robotics.
