Robots Perform Traditional Lion Dance for Chinese New Year

Two UBTECH robots dance in lion costumes to celebrate Chinese New Year.

The humanoid machines perform the traditional good luck dance with precise movements.

UBTECH programmed the robots to copy the complex steps usually done by human dancers.

Special sensors and AI help the robots move in sync while wearing the costumes.

The performance blends centuries-old tradition with cutting-edge robotics.

The machines master intricate footwork and coordinated movements that define the ancient dance.

UBTECH's showcase opens new possibilities for preserving cultural traditions through technology.

The robot performance brings an 800-year-old dance form into the modern age.

Thousands of spectators watched the robots perform the complex movements that human dancers train years to master.

The machines handled the heavy lion costume while executing jumps and turns that define the traditional dance.

UBTECH developed special balance systems to help the robots perform without toppling under the costume's weight.

This marks the first time humanoid robots have performed such an intricate traditional Chinese dance.
