Chinese Robot Makers Land Orders, Seek New Application Scenarios at CES 2025 Chinese Robot Makers Land Orders, Seek New Application Scenarios at CES 2025

(Yicai) Jan. 10 -- Many Chinese robot manufacturers at this year's Consumer Electronics Show said the event helps them receive more orders and contributes to exploring new product application scenarios.

"All the prototypes we brought have been sold out," a staffer at the booth of Hangzhou-based Unitree Robotics told Yicai. The company's quadruped robots global market share is about 60 percent to 70 percent, the person noted, without disclosing overseas sales figures.

Visitors were queuing at the booth of Aosha Intelligent Technology to try the Shanghai-based firm's wearable robotic exoskeleton, which is mainly made for heavy physical labor, including at mines, construction sites, and airports. Workers become like "Hercules" after putting the device, easily lifting objects weighing dozens of kilograms, according to the company.

Due to their popularity, all the products Aosha Intelligent brought to the exhibition were sold out, a worker of the company said to Yicai. Overseas sales account for around 30 percent of the firm's total, with the share likely to keep increasing, the person noted.

For manufacturers still in the trial stage, the CES provides a testing ground for direct contact with customers.

A staffer of HengBot told Yicai that although the smart robotic dog manufacturer's quadruped robots have not hit the market yet, the company has already received intention orders from about twenty or thirty customers, mainly from North America.

"We will extract the commonalities from the needs of different customers and strive to make some product iterations and updates before the official launch," the person pointed out.

Robots driven by large language models are used in retail, factories, offices, and hotels, a person in charge of Chinese embodied intelligence robots startup Galbot told Yicai. The company hopes to find more application scenarios for its first-generation robot, Galbot G1, at the CES, the person said.

"We have always emphasized making robots work, so we are also actively keeping in touch with overseas industrial and service application scenarios," the person in charge of Galbot pointed out.
