Humanoid robots to shine at fighting competition

The world’s first robot fighting competition opens on Sunday in Hangzhou City of east China’s Zhejiang Province, highlighting humanoid robots equipped with cutting-edge technologies. The competition is set in the Olympic Sports Center in Hangzhou.

The participating humanoid robots not only master fighting skills such as straight punches, hooks, and side kicks, but can also stand up quickly after falling to the ground. A greater challenge for the developers is to solve problems such as robot stability, endurance and heat dissipation in high-intensity confrontations. The competition mainly consists of two parts: exhibition matches and competitive matches.
