Disturbing video shows humanoid robots preparing for border patrol duties
China is about to send humanoid robots to work at a busy border with Vietnam. UBTECH Robotics has won a $37 million contract, to deploy its Walker S2 machines there starting this month.
The assignment is led by UBTECH Robotics Corp., a Shenzhen-based company that builds full-size humanoid robots for industry and public services.
Its engineers focus on embodied intelligence, which is artificial intelligence that controls a physical robot body, so these machines can handle messy, real-world environments.
Fangchenggang is a coastal city in Guangxi near the border with Vietnam, where cargo trucks, coaches, and day travelers constantly cycle through.
Chinese planners see a border crossing as a tough, real-world test, because schedules are tight and inspections cannot easily stop.
If these robots perform reliably there, it will be easier to argue for similar deployments at airports, seaports, and crowded train stations.
I wouldn't worry about that...

That's just a few tweaks away...
DeleteRade - Thanks for the link.
DeleteLooks like a totally AI generated video, most probably aimed at selling their product to the Chinese Gvt. I wonder if they'll allow videos of their "robots" leak on the Internet while in (faulty) action.
