Shenzhen Leju Robotics has secured a new round of funding, with its registered capital increased to 2.27 million yuan, and investors including Dongfang Jinggong. The company, established in 2016, has accumulated over tens of millions in financing. It has transitioned from educational robots to the industrial field. Its Aelos educational robot has been adopted by more than 4,000 schools. In 2023, it launched a humanoid robot based on open-source HarmonyOS, and collaborated with Huawei Cloud and China Mobile to develop 5G-A robots, enhancing application capabilities in industrial scenarios. The company plans to deliver 1,000 humanoid robots by 2025, addressing labor shortages in manufacturing and promoting intelligent production.

Chinese robot manufacturer Unitree has launched the world's first full-size humanoid robot R1 priced below $6,000, at only 39,900 yuan. This 25-kilogram robot features 26 joints and can perform high-difficulty movements such as backflips, equipped with a multi-modal AI system. Compared to similar products, the R1 is only one-third the price of Tesla's Optimus, thanks to China's supply chain advantages and lightweight design. Unitree's move comes as it prepares for an IPO, potentially triggering a price war in the industry. Although the R1 is not yet suitable for home use,

The unitree robot G1 and the humanoid robot DeREK won the fighting competition, but suddenly lost control. Due to being in mid-air, it accidentally entered walking mode, causing packages to fly around. CEO Cix explained that the emergency brake takes 5 seconds to take effect, during which damage occurred. The Ethernet cable eventually came loose, stopping the incident. A similar issue had occurred in May, and netizens questioned the safety design, suggesting that multiple safety mechanisms should be improved rather than rushing to raise funds. The incident has sparked extensive discussions about robot safety.
