UBTech footage of its Walker S Lite humanoid performing parcel-handling tasks at a loading workstation in Zeekr's automotive factory. A choreographed factory demonstration: the '21 consecutive days' and task-completion framing are the maker's claims, not independently verified continuous autonomy (humanoid factory demos are commonly teleoperated or scripted). This is the Walker S Lite variant, distinct from the Walker S1 and S2. UBTech is a China-based maker.
