China's second robot half-marathon is underway in Beijing, with over 300 humanoid robots from 70 teams competing. The 21 km race features tougher terrain, including paved slopes and parkland, to test the robots' technical advancements. Almost 40% of the robots will navigate autonomously, a significant improvement from last year's remotely controlled participants. The event showcases China's dominance in global humanoid robot installations, accounting for over 80% of worldwide units. However, experts say the skills displayed do not directly translate to commercialization in industrial settings, where manual dexterity and real-world perception are crucial. China's humanoid robot industry is still in its early stages, with widespread deployment years away.
