Since the beginning of the year, humanoid robots have undoubtedly taken center stage.

No longer confined to sci-fi films, they are gradually becoming "new companions" in real life. On the sports stadium, robot athletes are met with wave upon wave of cheers from the audience.

From sprinting in a 100-meter dash to teamwork on the field, from precise punches in the boxing ring to flawlessly completing tasks in scenario-based competitions, they have demonstrated remarkable potential, marking a significant step toward the integration of humanoid robots into human life and setting a promising vision for the future.
