Humanoid robots at 100 meters faster than Usain Bolt

The article reports on humanoid robots participating in a competition in Beijing, highlighting their achievements compared to human records. One robot ran 100 meters in 9.39 seconds, slightly faster than Usain Bolt's world record of 9.58 seconds. The comparison is described as purely informational and promotional, emphasizing technological progress rather than genuine competition. The robots also demonstrated other feats, such as jumping 2.88 meters in the high jump, surpassing previous robotic records but still below human world records. The event took place at a national speed skating arena built for the 2022 Winter Olympics and coincided with a global robotics conference where over 3000 products were showcased. Chinese companies like X-Humanoid and Honor are noted for their advancements, though experts caution that current humanoid robots are mainly used for demonstrations and research, with widespread daily use still some time away.
