RealMan Robotics has opened the Humanoid Robotics Data Training Center in Beijing to propel humanoid robots from the lab into everyday life and industry.
Serving as an innovation hub, the 3,000-square-metre facility facilitates core technology research, scenario-based application testing, operator training, and ecosystem collaboration.
The centre features a range of cutting-edge resources, including training and application zones populated by 108 varied robots: dual-arm lifting robots, wheeled humanoids, drone-arms and quadruped platforms.
To create authentic data for advanced AI training, 10 real-world environments have been constructed, covering eldercare, rehabilitation, special operations, retail, automotive assembly, and smart catering. Together, these environments are expected to produce more than one million high-quality data points annually to support the development of AI models for diverse scenarios.
“Robots face three enduring bottlenecks before they can scale into everyday life: operational capability, generalisation and cost efficiency,” Eric Zheng (above), Director of Humanoid Robotics Data Training Center.
“Traditional industrial arms are heavy and expensive, service robots remain too simplistic, and most lack the adaptability of humans in complex environments. Long deployment cycles and poor scenario adaptability – combined with high costs – continue to limit adoption,” he added.
The Humanoid Robotics Data Training Center plans to amplify industry-academia partnerships, ecosystem resource sharing and a culture of technology co-creation. It seeks to advance the adoption of humanoid robotics within China and contribute to the sustainable, global evolution of intelligent robotics.
