On Wednesday, China inaugurated the 2026 World Robot Conference, showcasing its burgeoning robotics industry as enterprises endeavor to transition their technologies from the demonstration phase to factories and other pragmatic applications.

The organizers have announced that approximately 3,000 products will be exhibited over the course of the five-day event.

Contrary to its designation as a conference, no exhibitions from other nations were held whatsoever.

One of Wednesday's principal attractions was the exhibition booth of Unitree, a leading Chinese manufacturer of humanoid robots, where several models demonstrated boxing routines and danced.

The conference's opening coincided precisely with Unitree's debut on the Shanghai stock exchange.

This conference was convened a mere few weeks after the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) issued an official decree mandating a comprehensive prohibition on the importation of new foreign-manufactured humanoid robots and power inverters, citing threats to national security.

The aforementioned ban comprehensively encompasses the importation of new models commonly referred to as quadrupedal walking robotsโ€”namely, four-legged robotic canines.

The Commission underscored that advanced robotic technologies could engender grave risks to cybersecurity and other dimensions of national security.

UBTECH, another preeminent Chinese robotics enterprise, brought a substantial array of industrial models to the conference, several of which were dedicated to demonstrating component conveyance operations precisely as they would be executed on a factory floor.

Yet it was the humanoid robots, endowed with lifelike expressions and unveiled with the express purpose of emotional caregiving, that commanded the most profound attention.

Jiao Jichao, the vice president of UBTECH Robotics, disclosed that one of the company's emotionally attentive humanoids is capable of executing verbal communication, articulating a spectrum of facial expressions, rotating its cervical spine, and manipulating its hands with dexterity.

Furthermore, the product is also made available to individual consumers, with its price set at 168,000 yuan (equivalent to approximately $24,000 USD).

Notwithstanding the increasingly sophisticated demonstrations, experts contend that many humanoid robots are far more impressive as performers than as practical laborers.

While numerous enterprises showcased assistive robots equipped with mechanical arms and hands, at one booth a robot embarked upon the ostensibly mundane domestic task of folding shirts, yet despite several minutes of endeavor, it conspicuously failed to accomplish the feat.
