The founder of Unitree outlined the next stage in the development of humanoid robots
Wang Xinsheng, founder and chairman of Unitree Robotics, stated that the next breakthrough in the development of humanoid robots should be their ability to operate in a variety of real-world environments and perform everyday tasks based on simple instructions. He made these remarks at the World Robot Conference in Beijing, according to ECNS.
Wang Xinsheng spoke at the conference a few days after Unitree’s listing on the Class A stock market. During his speech, he reflected on the company’s decade-long development and its products, including the Unitree G1.

According to him, artificial intelligence models perform well in the conditions under which they were trained, but often struggle in unfamiliar environments. The founder of Unitree linked further breakthroughs in robotics to the ability to operate in such diverse real-world situations.
Wang Xinshin estimated that robots with broader capabilities could appear within two to three years under an optimistic scenario. A more conservative estimate suggests this could take five to ten years. He also noted that the rapid development of artificial intelligence technologies is accelerating the growth of the robotics industry.
