Unitree, a Chinese robotics startup, aims to develop broader commercial applications in three to five years as the company explores new uses for humanoid robots and progresses in AI.

Unitree showcased its technology during China’s annual Spring Festival Gala, where 16 H1 humanoid robots performed a traditional Chinese Yangge folk dance with human dancers.

The robots are also being tested at factories of Chinese EV manufacturers like Nio and Geely.

Huang Jiawei, the company’s marketing director, emphasized the importance of developing advanced intelligence for the robots’ perception, comprehension, and task execution abilities.
