🤖 **China Conquers the World: 97% of Humanoid Robots Produced in China** According to a Morgan Stanley report from August 2026, China has monopolized the humanoid robot market, accounting for nearly 97% of global supplies. 🇨🇳 **Key Facts:** • In 2025, China's share was 90%; in 2026, it is nearly 97%. • The largest Chinese manufacturer delivered 36 times more robots than all American competitors combined. • The US and Japan are still at the prototype testing stage. 🏭 **Reasons for Success:** China controls more than 50% of suppliers of key components (reducers, sensors), enabling mass production. ⚠️ **Nuances:** Chinese robots currently dance better than they work, but production scale provides an advantage in data collection. The US maintains leadership in AI development. #robotics #china #morganstanley #technology #ai

🇨🇳 China plans to use robodogs to build a base on the Moon. 🤖 Machines will mine ice, patrol the territory, and even provide psychological support to astronauts. 📅 The construction of the first ILRS base is planned to be completed by 2035. 🌕 In August 2026, a mission to mine water ice at the South Pole will launch.

🤖 The first 'school' for robots has opened in China! In Hangzhou, machines learn to play tennis, serve drinks, and take exams to get 'diplomas'. 🔹 Goal: Teach robots to think and adapt to the real world. 🔹 Technologies: The new WJ-Brain system connects vision and logic. 🔹 Doubts: A similar center has been operating in Wuhan since March. China is betting on the mass implementation of AI. 🇨🇳🚀

Unitree Robotics has unveiled the AS2-W robot with a hybrid wheel-leg system. We analyze the real specs: speed up to 22 km/h and a payload of 16 kg, debunking myths about 180 kg. 🤖📉 #Unitree #Robotics #TechNews

California startup Satyress has unveiled the Threehalves centaur robot for hazardous zones. The two-meter-tall, four-legged unit can swap tools, including a chainsaw, and is remotely controlled. 🤖🪵

Google DeepMind has unveiled Gemini Robotics 2 — a model that teaches robots to walk, squat, and perform fine manipulations, such as tying knots. 🤖💪 Alongside it, the "brain" ER 2 was announced to coordinate the work of multiple robots, as well as a local version for training without the internet. 🧠🌐

Astronauts will no longer build bases on the Moon by hand. Companies Interlune and Vermeer are creating autonomous robotic excavators capable of working in lunar dust and radiation conditions. The first prototype is ready for testing! 🌑🚜🤖

At the WAIC 2026 conference in Shanghai, startup AheadForm presented Origin F1 — a robotic head with 43 muscles and 200 control points. 🤖 The model impresses with realistic facial expressions and hidden mechanics, which could revolutionize the service and medical sectors. 🇨🇳👁️

Samsung bets on the future: new RX division launched to accelerate robot development. 🤖 Led by an expert from Hyundai, with research centers opening in the US, China, and Japan. Goal: deploy humanoid assistants from factories to homes. 🌍🏭

The humanoid robot Unitree G1 has received a powerful upgrade and learned to clean the house: it moves pillows, gathers clothes, and loads the dishwasher on its own. 🤖🏠 However, developers warn that special configuration is still required for such tricks.

Engineers from South Korea and the US have created a suit that dresses itself in 10 seconds. 🤖 The working principle resembles ivy: soft rods pressurized by air wrap around the body. The technology will help people with disabilities and rescuers. 🚑👕

🤖 Robots have learned to understand the unspoken! MIT researchers have created a technology that allows machines to detect hidden human intentions. Now, 5 times less data is needed for training, and accuracy has increased by 15%. #robots #MIT #technology
