China's breakthroughs in robotics captivated global audiences again this week as a humanoid robot and its canine-inspired companion explored the studios of China Global Television Network (CGTN). The demonstration, led by anchor Zhong Shi, highlights rapid advancements in a sector where the Chinese mainland now commands over 30% of global industrial robot installations according to IFR data.
The tour builds on public enthusiasm generated by robots' performances at China Media Group's Spring Festival Gala, where artificial intelligence systems demonstrated improved mobility and voice interaction capabilities. During the CGTN visit, the humanoid model showcased real-time language processing while discussing media trends, while the quadruped robot navigated studio obstacles with fluid motion.
\"This isn't science fiction – it's infrastructure development,\" Zhong remarked during the broadcast, noting Beijing's recent policy initiatives to establish complete robotics industrial chains. Analysts predict the domestic humanoid robotics market could exceed $20 billion by 2030, driven by applications in manufacturing, healthcare, and customer service sectors.
The demonstration comes as Chinese tech firms accelerate innovation in cognitive AI and bio-inspired mechanics. With China accounting for more than half of global industrial robot sales in 2023, international manufacturers and investors are closely monitoring emerging partnership opportunities and export potential.
