Robot archer lights up ‘Zhixin’ as 2nd World Humanoid Robot Games open in Beijing_我的网站

一 |     IT之家 8 月 25 日消息，消息称苹果已向多家媒体发送邀请函，将于太平洋时间 9 月 8 日上午 10 点（北京时间 9 月 9 日凌晨 1 点）举办新品发布会，有望推出 iPhone 18 Pro、iPhone 18 Pro Max 以及苹果首款折叠手机（上市后预估名为 iPhone Ultra）。    

The lights went down inside the National Speed Skating Oval. A humanoid robot riding on a robotic horse, lifted a bow, drew back the string and let the arrow fly.
The arrow found its mark, and the “Zhixin,” or intelligence chip — this competition’s equivalent to the Olympic flame — lit up above the arena. The venue erupted in cheers.
With that, the 2nd World Humanoid Robot Games opened on Saturday at the Beijing venue better known as the “Ice Ribbon” — the capital’s second robotics showcase in a week, following the 2026 World Robot Conference, which opened on August 19.
The opening ceremony began with demonstrations of the 100-meter sprint and the standing high jump. In the sprint, a humanoid robot clocked 9.39 seconds — faster than the men's 100-meter world record of 9.58 seconds set by Jamaican sprint legend Usain Bolt. In the high jump, a humanoid robot reached 288.43 centimeters. Both marks were set by the Tien Kung Ultra humanoid robot by Beijing-based X-Humanoid. Table tennis, tennis, football and other events were then demonstrated jointly by elite human athletes and robots.
The parade of international delegations and robot contingents followed, including formations of humanoid robots from Booster Robotics, Galbot and Noetix Robotics. The robots performed drills as they marched, all of it done autonomously with no remote control.
The X-Humanoid fielded a 50-strong contingent of its Tien Kung 3.0 robots. Tien Kung 3.0 also served as the only robot flag bearer of the games, marching at the head of all contingents while waving the games flag, and it is also the humanoid robot archer who lighted the “Zhixin”, the company told the Global Times.
More than a thousand robots appeared over the course of the ceremony, in a series of joint performances with humans — an opening overture played by humanoid robot musicians alongside a human orchestra, and segments with pop singers, with the judges of the dance events taking the floor themselves, and with children.
Taishan Sports, the Shandong-based official equipment supplier of the games, provided the running tracks, the artificial turf for the football pitches, the floor surfacing for events including the long jump, high jump and weightlifting, and the impact mats that slow the robots down at the end of the sprint lanes.
"Robots are very heavy, and what they need from a surface in terms of hardness and friction is not what a human runner needs, so we adjusted the material formula specifically," Man Fangfang, the vice director of the company, told the Global Times at the venue. The artificial turf was reworked the same way — robots do not play football the way people do, and the turf has to be non-slip and antistatic. 
The company spent months talking to the competing teams and retesting the gear before the games. Taishan Sports has supplied equipment to eight Olympic Games and more than 3,000 sporting events, "but this is our first time serving robot games," she said.
China's robotics industry is growing fast and robots are moving into every sector, while the sports industry has always lent itself to crossover with other fields, Man said, adding that the company wants to use the games to work out what equipment suits robots and to develop more of it.
Compared with the first edition, the second games have expanded in both scale and quality. A total of 666 teams and 2,056 robots from 16 countries across six continents are competing, with the number of teams up 138 percent from the first edition and the number of robots quadrupling, according to CCTV.
Competition events have doubled from 26 to 51, while the number of matches has more than doubled from 487 to 1,301. More combative and spectator-friendly events such as martial arts and dance have been added to the competitive program.
Notably, the second games set stricter autonomy requirements for the robots. Except for the 100-meter and 400-meter obstacle races, all track events and other competitive events must be completed by robots fully autonomously. In scenario-based events, a task completed fully autonomously carries a final score weighting coefficient of 1, while one completed by remote control carries only 0.5, per CCTV.
Analysts said the higher bar on autonomy is in line with the industry’s development goal of having robots complete tasks without human operation.
。    宣传标语为 Awe Dropping 是个双关的梗，Awe‑inspiring（令人惊叹）+ Aw‑dropping（谐音 jaw‑dropping，令人瞠目结舌）。你可以理解这个词的中文翻译为：叹为观止。产品方面，除了三款 iPhone 机型外，彭博社的马克 · 古尔曼称苹果将会在本次活动中，发布新版 Mac mini，这将是该产品近 2 年来首次更新。当前款 Mac mini 近期需求激增，已成为用户在本地运行人工智能应用的常用设备。不过，内存芯片短缺导致苹果难以维持库存，部分订单交付可能需要数周或数月。苹果首席执行官蒂姆 · 库克此前表示，供应问题仍需一段时间解决，新机型是否能缩短等待时间尚不清楚。

二 | 苹果发言人拒绝置评。苹果还计划在 9 月产品发布会上推出 AirPods 5（AirPods 5 无线耳机）。

三 | 这款入门级耳机上次更新是在 2024 年。配备摄像头的 AirPods 则预计要到 2027 年才会发布。
