Unitree's bipedal robot shows off slick moves alongside human dancers
Last week, Chinese robotics company Unitree released a video showing 16 of its H1 humanoid robots busting moves alongside human dancers at a Spring Festival (or Chinese New Year) Gala event. They not only danced in sync with the beat and the human troupe, but each of them also flawlessly pulled off an incredibly challenging feat: spinning a handkerchief, throwing it, and catching it in motion.
This sleight of hand is a highlight of the Chinese folk dance, Yangge, and is said to require a ton of practice. And while the H1 performance isn't the first time we've seen a bipedal robot dance, it's probably the most impressive example yet.
Unitree's clip above includes footage of the bots in a rehearsal space and on a stage. In the video from Chinese news agency CCTV below, you can see the H1s perform live in front of an audience at the 'Chunwan' Spring Festival gala in Beijing.
According to the company, this was the world's "first large-scale, fully AI-driven and fully automated cluster humanoid robot performance in history."
