Beijing-based humanoid robotics company building general-purpose robots and AI systems for whole-body manipulation and mobility tasks.
Hong Kong opened its first Embodied AI International Applications Hub on Oct. 15 with seven technology partners and eight scenario partners. Crypto Briefing reported two funding plans alongside it, HKD 1 billion for AI subsidies and HKD 10 billion for an industrial fund.

Galbot's PASSAGE framework reached the goal in 98.67 percent of 750 simulated trials but finished without touching an obstacle in 70.3 percent. A pilot team has to decide which of those numbers its site demands.
Reality
The rally count, the autonomy claim and the model's identity all come from one press release. The machine that fell over and got up cannot be the legless robot Galbot actually sells.

The robotics office Samsung created in July has a single executive running both the drivetrain team and the perception team, which is a cheap piece of optionality against Chinese rivals who took more than 97 percent of first-half humanoid shipments.

Counterpoint puts five Chinese makers at 86% of the 22,000 humanoids shipped in the first half of 2026. That is the cost curve the Covered List and the new tariffs do not touch while they reprice US bills of materials.
Reality
Beijing is funding humanoid output at electric-vehicle scale, but the data that makes the machines useful still arrives one teleoperated attempt at a time, and the yield on those attempts is what sets the schedule.
Reality
Sprint records come out of motors and simulation. The dexterity events at the World Humanoid Robot Games test the one thing neither of those solves, and a very large field now has to chase them.

At the 2026 World Robot Conference, AVIC showed a humanoid built for missile loading and NEXWISE a robot dog that fires restraining nets. The buyer being courted is not a factory.

Wang Xingxing says a robot should complete about 80% of voice or text instructions in a house it has never seen. He also says the software may be a decade away.
