Surpassing the United States! China's "humanoid robot rise" accounts for more than half of global production
South Korean media: "China's human-shaped robot industry rises, surpassing developed countries like the United States!"
On May 12th, South Korean media "Maeil Business Newspaper" published an article stating that China has surpassed developed countries such as the United States in the field of human-shaped robots, accounting for more than half of this year's global production. Chinese robots have also achieved a "DeepSeek moment," shocking the world with low-cost and high-efficiency artificial intelligence models.
This year, China is expected to produce approximately 10,000 human-shaped robots, with a total value of 8.24 billion RMB, accounting for more than half of the global output. With the reduction in manufacturing costs and the maturation of the ecosystem, this year will be the year when China's human-shaped robot industry leaps from pilot projects to large-scale commercialization.
By 2030, the market size of China's human-shaped robots will grow to 103.8 billion RMB, accounting for about 45% of the global share, which has also drawn attention. The semiconductor and artificial intelligence research analysis institution Seminalysis analyzed in a recent report that U.S. technology companies are at risk of being left behind by their Chinese competitors.
With full support from the government, Chinese enterprises are expanding their advantages through cost-effectiveness. Like other high-tech projects, the Chinese government actively supports the human-shaped robot industry through subsidies, tax incentives, public-private research cooperation, and promoting the development of industrial clusters. At the same time, just as DeepSeek has developed an AI model equivalent to ChatGPT, with a cost of only about 5% of OpenAI's ChatGPT development cost, Chinese human-shaped robots are entering the market at significantly lower prices than their competitors.
