When robotic dogs perform flips and humanoid robots accurately replicate kung fu moves... On 15th December, 2025, faculty and students from the School of Internet of Things at XJTLU visited Shanghai branch of Unitree Technology. They engaged in an immersive experience of cutting-edge technologies and discussed opportunities for school-industry collaboration and interdisciplinary integration with the company.
In the exhibition hall, the Go2 robotic dog showcased its ability to adapt to various terrains, while the G1 humanoid robot performed kung fu and dance. The core technology behind these innovations is rooted in the Internet of Things (IoT): multidimensional sensors enable real-time environmental perception, and the collaboration between IoT and AI constructs a closed loop of "perception-interconnection-decision-making." In the future, robots are expected to become "super nodes" within the IoT ecosystem, achieving precise collaboration in both industrial and everyday settings. In the laboratory, new humanoid robots are testing delicate operations such as folding clothes, demonstrating their potential for interaction with IoT devices.
Both parties engaged in deep discussions about technical pain points. Yushu Technology introduced the role of the Internet of Things in remote control of robots, while Dr. Yue Liu and Dr. Oswaldo from School of Internet of Things shared projects such as "Multi-Agent Collaboration" and "Smart Library." The focus was on joint research and development of "adaptive robotic systems" and integrated solutions for "robot-IoT integration" in industrial scenarios. Students actively posed questions about technical challenges, leading to a lively exchange of ideas and insights.
The event concluded with a group photo, and School of Internet of Things extended an invitation to Yushu Technology for mutual visits. This visit clarified the innovative path of "Robotics + IoT": robots serve as "actors," while the Internet of Things provides "perception" and "connectivity." In the future, both parties will deepen their collaboration in talent cultivation and technology research and development, aiming to drive breakthroughs in intelligent applications.
