The streets of China were buzzing with excitement as the country celebrated the Chinese Lunar New Year. However, a group of humanoid kung-fu robots stole the show with their breathtaking martial arts display.

China’s humanoid robots underwent rigorous training in advanced skills such as parkour, acrobatics and martial arts ahead of their viral appearance at the Lunar New Year gala.

At this year's CMG Spring Festival Gala, the world's most-watched television broadcast, four Chinese robotics powerhouses, namely Unitree, MagicLab, Galbot and Noetix, debuted their most advanced units to date. For the robotics industry, this was far more than a cultural performance; it was a high-stakes global product launch.

More than 3,000 robots navigate the four-story fulfillment center in Kent, guided by new algorithms that are making them faster and more efficient.

The robots will be unloading totes full of auto parts from an automated warehouse tugger.

Whirling nunchaku-wielding dervishes of destruction represent startling progress for China's robotics industry.
