Overview
- Four university teams fielded AI-powered humanoid robots in three-on-three matches on June 28, with all play governed entirely by on-board algorithms and no human control.
- Advanced visual sensors enabled ball detection and navigation while self-righting mechanisms worked most of the time, though several bots still needed stretchers after falling.
- Booster Robotics supplied standardized T1 hardware platforms as each university’s research team integrated bespoke AI strategies for perception, decision-making and formations.
- In the final, Tsinghua University’s THU Robotics overcame China Agricultural University’s Mountain Sea team by a 5-3 score to capture the championship.
- The June showcase concludes a series of AI-robot sports trials and precedes the World Humanoid Robot Games set for August 15–17 in Beijing.
