제임스 오티즈 포함한 로키티어들이 로키 몸통/팔/다리 하나씩 맡고 하나하나 조종하는데, 진짜 로키가 살아움직이는 것 같아서 너무 좋음좋음좋음🪨🎶🎵
TienKung Ultra finished the full 21.0975 km in 1:15:00 — fully autonomous, zero human intervention. 🤖
No repeat win this time.
But it was easily one of the most striking robots on the course —
clean gait, stable motion, and the most human-like running form out there.
It took home the “Best Design” award,
and that actually says more than the podium this time.
Because this isn’t a marathon-only build.
TienKung Ultra is a general-purpose humanoid,
already moving toward real-world deployment.
And it didn’t show up alone.
Teams from Peking University, Fudan, HUST, BIT, Beihang, HKUST(GZ), TUM and more
were all building on the same TienKung platform.
That’s what an open ecosystem looks like —
shared hardware, shared stack, different solutions on top.
And just a day before, it took the Robot Warrior Challenge —
fully autonomous through obstacle tasks modeled on real-world rescue and hazardous operations.
That’s the part that matters.
This is no longer just about speed.
It’s about autonomy — and whether these systems can actually handle real environments.
That’s what future winners are going to look like.
