China’s humanoid robot turns into Kung-fu master after dancing debut
Unitree's G1 humanoid robot showcases new kung-fu moves with improved balance, thanks to an upgraded learning algorithm.
This does not look real. I can’t put my finger as to why. It looks like good CGI but the lighting off the robot does not feel perfect.
I was curious why someone downvoted you, so I took a look at the video.
That is absolutely 100% CGI and I’m not sure why anyone is doubting that. I’m on mobile and I can still see it.
Take my upvote.
The biggest tell is at 0:21.
You see the badge flying around as a physics object and then, when the animation stops the left side part of the necklace "resets" and slides up on the bots neck despite that being like a ball suddenly deciding to go from a rest to rolling up hill.
It looks like it went from being rendered as a physics object to slowing down enough that it returned to being a regular object attached to the model's rigging .
Oh, yeah, that really does not look real. Like on its own this seems unlikely since there's been no talk about this until now, but wow that video just looks really, really fake.
Also it's apparently only ~4ft/130cm tall, which would make this less impressive even if all the promo media released about it is real, which seems... unlikely.
Let‘s give them the benefit of doubt. I mean this would only be the millionth time they get caught blatantly faking footage of exactly this technology and make wrong claims. Surely they have learned by now. /s
Can I have the source claiming they've faked footage? I would love to have that and didn't find anything on google, hoping for a captain disillusion situation!
damn... there goes my heist plans... was going to wait till AI robots took over the manufacturing lines, then walk in and start stealing product right off the line. I never anticipated all the robots would know kung fu.
It's funny a fake video is connected to self defense theater.
Ew that whole site feels off. There are a few other pretty immediately obvious fake robot videos under the 'innovation' section.
Great. Now what?
this should make for some kickass robot contests. id like to see two real-time kungfu robots go at eachother.
Battle bots 2034
Once AI becomes the norm, and people start making homelab androids, I genuinely see a robot fighting league in our future.
Big Hero 6 style
Oh shit, they can fly now?!
Obviously only if you jump off a bird
"Is that Kung Fu?"
"No, he's only had 2 pints."
