The Robot That Covered Its Face
It tripped once, got back up, crossed the line — then hid its face with both hands. The shy 400 m lap that turned Tiangong into a meme.

From Robots to the Robotics Ecosystem
We go beyond individual robots to explore the companies, technologies, applications, and events shaping the world of robotics.
A 45.66-second shy 400 m, a 64 km/h SIUUU free kick, and an 8.64-second 100 m sprint. Three stories from Beijing 2026, each with the on-field video — hover any card to play it muted.

It tripped once, got back up, crossed the line — then hid its face with both hands. The shy 400 m lap that turned Tiangong into a meme.

A 64 km/h top-spin finish into the top corner, followed by a perfectly-balanced Ronaldo SIUUU on one leg — the viral free-kick robot.

9.39 s → 8.86 s → 8.64 s. Three timed rounds, two world records broken in one afternoon, then a celebratory crash over the line.
The 2nd World Humanoid Robot Games delivered the most complete set of humanoid athletics data to date: 100 m in 8.64 s, 400 m in 38.15 s, a 2:21.64 1500 m, a 3.40 m standing high jump and a 7.97 m long jump.

Six anchor moments on the calendar — conference halls, stadiums and show floors, mapped in chronological order.

if you say like 10 years from now, I would say there are well over a billion humanoid robots. And the productivity per robot will be probably five times that of a human.
