In a recent video from China it made many people stop, watch it, watch it again and feel a certain chill, humanoid robots executing kung fu movements in perfect synchronicity alongside human monks in the legendary Shaolin temple.
In March 2025 they appeared riding a bicycle like a human in an open space, a few months later, in May, the company published even more daring images, the robot executing the Webster somersault, an extremely complex movement that requires precise momentum, body control in the air and millimeter landing, now X2 went further, executing traditional martial arts sequences with posture, balance and rhythm reminiscent of the most disciplinary training.
In other words, observe, interpret and act, the model introduces the concept of latent actions, a technique that helps robots understand human movement by analyzing heavy and present visual frames at the same time. This solves one of the biggest bottlenecks of humanoid robotics, the scarcity of labeled data of real human actions is what allows, for example, several robots to move in synchrony, learning complex patterns of body movement, something clearly visible in the video recorded in the temple.
