Current platform

Tiangong

Tiangong is a full-size general-purpose humanoid robot developed by X-Humanoid (Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center). The Tiangong Ultra variant won the world's first humanoid robot half-marathon in Beijing on April 19, 2025 (2:40:42). Tiangong 3.0, developed with D-Robotics and powered by the Xuri S600 chip, features whole-body touch-interactive control and is scheduled to enter mass delivery in H2 2026. The platform is designed for industrial manufacturing, commercial services, and complex 3D environments.

Current platform

Tiangong (Tien Kung)

X-Humanoid, the Beijing Humanoid Robot Innovation Center, is a state-backed provincial innovation center established on November 2, 2023 in Beijing's Yizhuang zone, owned roughly 28.57 percent each by Beijing Jingcheng Machinery Electric, Xiaomi Robotics, and UBTech, with the remaining 14.29 percent held by Yizhuang state holdings and general manager Xiong Youjun, who is also UBTech's CTO. It develops Tiangong (Tien Kung), an open bipedal humanoid reference platform: the Tiangong Ultra version, at about 180 cm and 52 to 55 kg with a peak speed near 12 km/h, won the world's first humanoid half-marathon in Beijing on April 19, 2025 in 2 hours 40 minutes, and the Tien Kung 3.0 generation from February 2026 adds full-body tactile control on the genuinely open-sourced Huisi Kaiwu embodied-AI platform, which includes the RoboMIND dataset, the ArtVIP asset library, and vision-language-action models. The center raised more than 700 million yuan, about $100 million, in a first round closed February 3, 2026 with Baidu and state funds. The registry records it as a research platform with an emerging pilot and early-commercial robotics-as-a-service track, since its verifiable identity is a state-backed open reference platform aiming to be the Android of Chinese humanoids, and although Caixin confirms a 1,000th customized unit, a dedicated pilot-verification facility, and JD.com sales, that commercialization is platform-led and state-subsidized rather than arm's-length product sales at scale. The marathon's beat-the-humans framing is misleading because Tiangong Ultra needed three battery swaps, ran with a human pacer it imitated, and fell once.
