Beijing's first World Humanoid Robot Games open with hip-hop and martial arts
A robot rehearses the 100m race before the opening ceremony of The World Humanoid Robot Games held in Beijing, China, Thursday, Aug. 14, 2025. (AP Photo/Ng Han Guan) Humanoid robots danced hip-hop, performed martial arts and played keyboard, guitar and drums at the opening ceremony of the first World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing on Thursday evening. The competition begins Friday with more than 500 humanoid robots in 280 teams from 16 countries, including the U.S., Germany and Japan, competing in sports including soccer, running and boxing. The event comes as China has stepped up efforts to develop humanoid robots powered by artificial intelligence. During the opening ceremony, the robots demonstrated soccer and boxing among other sports, with some cheering and backflipping as if at a real sports event. One robot soccer player scored a goal after a few tries, causing the robot goalkeeper to fall to the ground. Another player fell but stood up unassisted. The robots also modeled fashionable hats and clothes alongside human models. In one mishap, a robot model fell and had to be carried off the stage by two human beings. Teams from robot companies and Chinese universities including Tsinghua University and Peking University are competing in the games. Three middle schools are also participating. China's official newspaper People's Daily quoted a government officer in Beijing as saying that every robot that participates 'is creating history.' The event will last three days, concluding on Sunday. Tickets sold to the public range from 180 yuan (US$25) to 580 ($80). Fu Ting, The Associated Press.

The program, conducted by PropTech Breakthrough, a leading independent market intelligence organization, recognizes the world's most innovative real estate technology companies and solutions. Alpha™ is a fully autonomous, solar-powered AI mobile surveillance trailer that seamlessly integrates Cloudastructure's AI surveillance and remote guarding platform with advanced hardware from RVMP® Flex Security. Designed for rapid deployment, live monitoring, and effective crime deterrence, Alpha is ideal for construction sites, storage facilities, auto dealerships, parking lots, events, and disaster relief zones. Alpha™ Features at a Glance: 3 HD PTZ cameras on a 27-foot mast Live HD horn for real-time intervention Programmable floodlights and strobe deterrents Upgradeable LiDAR and thermal imaging Solar-powered with automatic generator backup 24/7 live streaming capability 450-foot IR detection—2x industry-leading range Alpha is powered by Cloudastructure's award-winning AI Surveillance and Remote Guarding platform, which offers: A centralized dashboard providing a unified view of all locations for seamless scalability Advanced AI-driven analytics for enhanced threat detection and operational insight Rapid search capabilities to quickly locate critical footage A secure, enterprise-grade network architecture Fully integrated remote guarding for real-time intervention This combination ensures that 100% of all footage is continuously monitored by AI, while remote human guards respond only to AI-generated alerts.
