The first Humanoid Games were held in Beijing, China, where more than 500 humanoid robots from 16 countries competed in various sports. The three-day event was held at the National Speed Skating Oval.
The robots competed in sports such as soccer, boxing, track and field, and kung fu. Aside from sports, they also showed off their skills in practical tasks such as preparing medicine and cleaning the house. The aim is to show that robots can now move from the laboratory to real life.
The match showcased major advancements in robotics and AI in China. While there were many impressive performances, there were also instances of errors, such as several robots falling over in a soccer match and one robot losing its head while running.
The Humanoid Games served as a major step in the global competition in robotics, and was an opportunity for engineers to test new technology.
For viewers, it's like a glimpse into a future where it's possible that robots will be with us at work and in everyday life.
