At the beginning of the video, T800 makes an impressive entrance by kicking open the door and then walking past the company’s previous robot, PM01, which was much smaller in size. T800 then began to “warm up” and jumped. At some point, he performed a jump kick on the spot – internet users immediately recalled Bruce Lee. In the video, T800 demonstrated whole combinations of hand and foot strikes, including spectacular “spins”. Frame from ZQ Robotics
Technological Milestone
Internet users noted that the American film “Real Steel” is nothing compared to how advanced Chinese robots have become. The T800 is a full-sized humanoid designed to perform complex tasks. It stands 1.85 meters tall, weighs 85 kilograms, and is equipped with 41 joints, a solid-state battery, and aluminum alloy covers. This design reflects the latest advancements in humanoid robotics, focusing on increasing agility and human-like movements.
Upcoming Competitions
The T800 is set to become the main competing model in the Robot Boxer tournament, an event organized by EngineAI scheduled for December 24. These types of tournaments are gaining popularity, showcasing the capabilities of modern robots in combat scenarios, reflecting a growing interest and development in robotic sports. The Robot Boxer tournament is expected to draw significant attention from both technology enthusiasts and the general public as humanoid robots like T800 continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible in robotics.
