In a groundbreaking achievement, China’s humanoid robot Tiangong has successfully climbed 134 outdoor stairs, reaching the summit of Haizi Wall Park in Beijing. This feat marks a significant milestone in the field of robotics and artificial intelligence.
Developed by the National and Local Co-built Embodied AI Robotics Innovation Center, Tiangong is equipped with vision-based walking capabilities. This technology allows the robot to navigate steep outdoor staircases and handle height differences of up to 35 centimeters without losing balance or falling.
The successful ascent of Haizi Wall Park’s staircase demonstrates the advanced engineering and sophisticated AI algorithms that power Tiangong. Such innovations are paving the way for more autonomous and adaptable robots, capable of performing complex tasks in dynamic environments.
As robotics technology continues to evolve, developments like Tiangong are not only pushing the boundaries of what machines can achieve but also opening up new possibilities for their integration into various aspects of daily life and industry.
