China's Spring Festival Gala just got a futuristic twist! 🎉 On Tuesday night, 16 humanoid robots from China's leading robotics company, Unitree, took the stage and left everyone in awe.
These robotic performers didn't dance solo—they teamed up with 16 human dancers to perform the traditional Yangko dance, a vibrant folk art from northeast China. Talk about a perfect blend of tech and tradition! 🤖🕺
The highlight? The robots twirling handkerchiefs, a signature move in Yangko dance. With precise mechanical arms, they sent the handkerchiefs spinning and soaring through the air, creating a mesmerizing visual spectacle. 🌟
\"They will perform fully automated position changes on stage, and their dance movements are all driven by AI,\" said Wang Qixin, head of marketing at Unitree, in an interview before the show.
This performance wasn't just about entertainment; it showcased how technology and culture can come together to create something truly magical. We can't wait to see what they come up with next! 🚀
