Qiao Hong, an academician at the Chinese Academy of Sciences and director of a laboratory of multimodal artificial intelligence systems, said domestic humanoid robots have seen continuous technological advancements — in fields from component manufacturing and machine tool processing to control systems — and are now aligning with internationally advanced standards.

"Over 95 percent of the components in our full-size humanoid robots are now domestically produced," said Zhang Dapeng, an executive at Shenzhen, Guangdong province-based humanoid robotics company Leju (Shenzhen) Robotics Co Ltd.This is a result of accumulated technological breakthroughs and a stable domestic supply chain, Zhang said.

With the delivery of its 100th full-size humanoid robot in January, Leju Robotics has turned itself into a global leader in terms of announced delivery volume. The company said it expects to deliver approximately 1,000 units this year.
