Everything you need to know about humanoid robots today, including:
- Beijing hits back at the U.S. robot ban - China’s commanding humanoid patent lead - Unitree launches its IPO process - Humanoid robots enter summer camp classrooms - Number of the day: 73
China now holds 73% of the world’s active humanoid morphology patent families, but the United States still leads in average patent quality.
In this episode of Humanoid Daily, we break down the new global humanoid patent map, including where China dominates, where U.S. companies remain strong, and why many of the most valuable patents belong to companies that do not primarily build humanoid robots.
We also cover Unitree’s planned IPO on Shanghai’s STAR Market, its reported $620 million fundraising target, and how the company plans to spend the money on robot AI, next-generation products, and manufacturing.
Plus, Beijing responds to new U.S. restrictions on foreign-made humanoid and quadruped robots, and researchers in British Columbia test how children interact with social robots in real-world learning environments.
