China unveils a giant rideable robot straight out of sci-fi movie
Unitree Robotics - the Chinese company that has quickly become one of the world's most prolific robot manufacturers - unveiled the GD01, which is being billed as the world's first production-ready manned transformable mecha. Wang reportedly built his first quadruped robot as part of a university thesis before leaving drone giant DJI to start his own company. In April, Chinese smartphone company Honor made global headlines when its humanoid robot completed a half marathon in Beijing in 50 minutes and 26 seconds - beating the human world record by nearly seven minutes.
