Chinese Robot Helps Build Cars at Geely Factory

UBTECH's humanoid robot WalkerS1 works alongside self-driving vehicles at Geely's car plant in Chengdu.

The robot helps move materials and coordinates with automated transport machines.

UBTECH designed WalkerS1 to work like a human while handling factory tasks.

The robot shows how car factories might use more human-shaped machines.

Neither UBTECH nor Geely have shared their plans for using more robots.

The robot's presence marks a shift toward smarter manufacturing at Geely.

Industry experts say such robots could make factories more efficient and safer.

More factories test AI-powered robots as the technology improves.

The partnership brings together China's leading robot maker and a major car company.

This marks one of the first times a humanoid robot works in a real car factory.

Modern factories increasingly combine robots with traditional manufacturing.
