Experts warn that combining advanced body intelligence with autonomous driving tech has made humanoid robots smarter and more adaptable than ever. The real question is: how long before these tireless workers replace human hands entirely? They’re smarter, stronger, and taking over…
More than 1,000 robotic recruits to be trained by 2027
China is taking its sci-fi ambitions to the next level with the launch of the world’s first humanoid robot training camp – and it’s no small-scale operation. The Humanoid Robot Kylin Training Ground in Shanghai is gearing up to churn out more than 1,000 fully-trained robotic workers by 2027.
Governments across China are scrambling to introduce policies to supercharge innovation and flood industries with these tireless mechanical recruits. The goal? To dominate the global humanoid robotics market and outpace rivals like the US.
The rise of the machines – built for hard graft
Humanoid robots aren’t just about mimicking human gestures and chit-chatting- they’re industrial powerhouses, designed to walk, carry heavy loads, and automate repetitive tasks. Factories and warehouses will be their main battlegrounds, revolutionising efficiency and cutting labour costs.
This mammoth training centre can currently accommodate over 100 robots at a time, making it the largest humanoid robot training facility in China. It serves as a testing ground where companies can collaborate, refine their tech, and showcase the limitless potential of robotic labour.
China is pouring resources into AI and robotics to lead the next industrial revolution. This cutting-edge project shows China’s relentless march towards automation dominance.
Robot workforce boom – billions at stake
According to industry reports, China’s humanoid robot market is on a meteoric rise. It’s expected to hit 16.7 billion yuan (over 2 billion euros) by 2025, before skyrocketing to 86.1 billion yuan (around 10 billion euros) by 2030.
With local governments racing to push robotic policies forward, the age of humanoid automation is no longer a futuristic dream – it’s a reality unfolding in front of our eyes at breakneck speed.
