STORYLINE:
LEAD IN :

Humanoid robots raced and punched their way through three days of a multi-sport competition at the World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing.

But they also toppled, crashed and collapsed, requiring humans’ help and leading to questions about how far, after all, the robots can go on their own.

STORYLINE:

The World Humanoid Robot Games got underway with a glitzy opening ceremony - even if the competitors aren't human.

Chinese singer Liu Yuxin uses bots as his backup dancers.

And some of the machines even don clothes for a catwalk show - although not all managed to stay on their feet.

The games featured more than 500 humanoids on 280 teams from 16 countries, including the US, Germany and Japan.
