On September 3, a grand ceremony was held at Tiananmen Square in Beijing to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's Anti-Japanese War and the World Anti-Fascist War. Many tech company leaders were invited to attend, including Cui Wenhao, Vice President of Algorithms at Noetix Robotics, who gained attention earlier this year with the "Kid Brother" robot at the Yizhuang Robot Marathon.

Born in 1996, Cui Wenhao's earliest impression of a military parade was during the 2009 parade. At that time, he could only watch on television while transitioning from elementary to middle school. Now being able to witness it in person excited him greatly. The moment when fighter jets flew overhead was the most thrilling for Cui Wenhao.

As the head of a humanoid robotics company, Cui Wenhao was also very interested in the exhibition of robots and intelligence during this parade. The robotic dogs in the unmanned combat formation left the deepest impression on him. "Regardless of whether robots are quadrupedal or humanoid, improving their perceptual abilities will greatly help reduce soldier casualties in military applications. I believe the entire robotics industry will have opportunities for collaboration or transformation in the military field in the future." Cui Wenhao believes that the country's attention can also bring more favorable policies to his industry and promote the development of China's robotics sector.

"My biggest takeaway is the significance of perceptual capabilities in the robotics field. In the future, whether for the development of the robotics industry or its applications in the military, perceptual abilities will be a key focus for development," Cui Wenhao expressed.

The Noetix Robotics robot (N2) received much attention for achieving second place at the Yizhuang Marathon, with its small size earning it the nickname "Kid Brother" from many netizens. By May this year, sales of N2 had surpassed 1,000 units, making Noetix Robotics the second humanoid robotics company, after Yushutech, to announce breaking the thousand sales milestone. In July, Noetix Robotics announced the mass production and delivery of 105 humanoid robots.
