2025 World Humanoid Robot Games scheduled for mid-August in Beijing, China, with teams from U.S., Brazil, Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Portugal, Japan, Singapore, Australia, UAE, and Indonesia.
Beijing, China — The recent autonomous 3-on-3 soccer matches featuring humanoid robots in Beijing have set the stage for the upcoming 2025 World Humanoid Robot Games, scheduled for mid-August. This event will bring together teams from various countries, including the U.S., Brazil, Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Portugal, Japan, Singapore, Australia, UAE, and Indonesia.
The matches, organized by Booster Robotics, showcased the advanced AI capabilities of the robots. Each team's robots operated fully autonomously, using AI-driven strategies without human intervention. The robots were equipped with advanced visual sensors, allowing them to identify the ball and navigate the field with agility. Despite several robots needing to be carried off the field, the matches demonstrated the potential of AI in sports and robotics.
Cheng Hao, founder and CEO of Booster Robotics, highlighted the significance of these competitions in accelerating the development of both algorithms and integrated hardware-software systems. He emphasized safety as a core concern, noting that future interactions between robots and humans are a possibility.
In the final match, Tsinghua University's THU Robotics defeated the China Agricultural University's Mountain Sea team, winning the championship. This victory not only showcased the capabilities of the robots but also the potential for future collaborations between academic institutions and robotics companies.
The 2025 World Humanoid Robot Games promise to be a significant event in the field of AI and robotics, with teams from around the world competing to demonstrate their technological prowess. The event will provide a platform for innovation and collaboration, further advancing the development of AI-powered humanoid robots.
