Shenzhen is now home to a major robotics milestone as UBTECH Robotics
confirmed that hundreds of its Walker S2 humanoid robots have been shipped
to active industrial facilities.
These organizations want stable 24-hour operations

without constant oversight. Early tests show that the robots are performing
well in factories and warehouses instead of controlled labs.

The company believes

its battery system is the strongest feature of the Walker S2. The robot can
remove and replace its own power pack within minutes and does not need any
human assistance to do so. This reduces downtime and supports long shifts
that involve constant walking and lifting.
