Hong Kong stock concept tracking | Outperforming humans! Glory Siasun Robot & Automation wins the half marathon championship, institutions are optimistic about these three main directions (with concept stocks)
From the perspective of mass production, it is widely believed within the industry that 2026 is the key year for the mass production of humanoid robots.
On April 19, 2026, the Beijing Yizhuang humanoid Siasun Robot & Automation half marathon came to a close. The "Lightning" Siasun Robot & Automation of Glory won the championship with a time of 50 minutes and 26 seconds, not only surpassing the human half marathon world record of 57 minutes and 20 seconds by a large margin but also sweeping the top six places.
Compared to the first event, the rules and difficulty of this event have both been enhanced. It is understood that this year's event introduced a dual mode of "autonomous navigation" and "remote control operation" and ranked teams through weighted rankings; the track integrates more than 10 types of terrain, placing higher demands on path planning, dynamic balance, and endurance. About forty percent of the teams opted for full autonomous navigation, a significant increase from last year.
According to data released by the event organizer, over a hundred Siasun Robot & Automation teams participated in this event, including 5 international teams. Participating entities included the Beijing humanoid Siasun Robot & Automation Innovation Center, Glory, Yushu, Songyan Power, and universities and research institutes such as Tsinghua University, Peking University, and the University of Science and Technology of China, among which autonomous navigation Siasun Robot & Automation accounted for nearly forty percent.
In this year's humanoid Siasun Robot & Automation half marathon, Glory became the first mobile phone giant to send out Siasun Robot & Automation for the competition. In this event, Glory sent out a total of 10 teams with two models of humanoid Siasun Robot & Automation, including 6 "Lightning" Siasun Robot & Automation (3 fully autonomous, 3 remote controlled) and 4 "Q-version" Siasun Robot & Automation (2 fully autonomous, 2 remote controlled). In the end, the 6 "Lightning" teams swept the top six places.
The top three teams in this event were the Great Sage team, the Thunderbolt team, and the Sparkling team, all coming from Glory's "Lightning" Siasun Robot & Automation, operating in autonomous navigation mode. Among them, the Great Sage team broke the human half marathon world record with a net time of 50 minutes and 26 seconds, with zero failures and zero malfunctions throughout the entire course.
Glory stated that this participation was a significant breakthrough for their humanoid Siasun Robot & Automation technology from the laboratory to practical scenarios, mainly due to the strong support of Glory's self-developed full-stack technology. In terms of cooling, the Siasun Robot & Automation features a self-developed liquid cooling system, with liquid cooling pipes penetrating the motor for heat conduction, a high-power liquid pump achieving over 4 liters of heat exchange per minute, effectively solving the challenge of heat dissipation during high-load movements. Powerwise, it utilizes a self-developed integrated joint module with a peak torque of 400 Newton-meters. In terms of control, relying on Glory's self-developed high dynamic motion control algorithms and multi-sensor fusion technology, the "Lightning" can adapt to complex track conditions, precisely control the center of gravity, and maintain stable running throughout.
Glory's deployment in the Siasun Robot & Automation field has been ongoing for almost two years, with the company's management stating that the Siasun Robot & Automation business is part of the overall strategy, leveraging its AI capabilities and terminal ecosystem advancement. In the future, Glory's Siasun Robot & Automation will focus on the consumer market, deeply cultivating the scenarios of malls, factories, and homes.
From square dancing, martial arts performances, and marathons to entering factories, retail stores, elderly care stations, and malls for "work," China's humanoid Siasun Robot & Automation is accelerating its "evolution," with increasingly diverse application scenarios.
In the 2026 Chinese government work report, it was proposed to cultivate and develop future industries such as future energy, quantum technology, humanoid intelligence, brain-computer interfaces, and 6G. The outline of the "14th Five-Year Plan" also proposed forward-looking layouts for future industries, promoting humanoid intelligence as a new economic growth point. The Chinese Electronics Society predicts that by 2030, China's humanoid Siasun Robot & Automation market size is expected to reach approximately 870 billion yuan.
Sealand pointed out that the scale of this competition has grown nearly five times compared to last year, with the four-legged Siasun Robot & Automation from Alibaba's Amap making its debut in this event for the first time, becoming Alibaba's first humanoid Siasun Robot & Automation product. Leading company Glory also became the "world's first consumer electronics giant to send out Siasun Robot & Automation for the competition," with its "Lightning" and "Q-version" models participating. As the second edition of the world's first humanoid Siasun Robot & Automation marathon event, this competition has evolved from "tentative first steps" last year to "full-speed running."
From the pace of mass production, it is widely believed within the industry that 2026 is a crucial year for the mass production of humanoid Siasun Robot & Automation. Xuguang, Chief Analyst of China Securities Co., Ltd.'s machinery industry, clearly stated at the post-event investment summit, "The industry chain is on the eve of realizing the 0-1 transformation, and 2026 is expected to be a year of explosive growth in precision scene expansion." He particularly emphasized three main directions: the Tesla industry chain, the domestic humanoid Siasun Robot & Automation industry chain with high certainty and high value in the manufacturing link, and the sensor industry with breakthrough expectations (such as six-axis torque sensors, electronic skins, etc.). Similarly, Soochow believes that the sector will gradually converge in 2026, with Tesla's Optimus officially transitioning from the lab to mass production, suggesting focusing on core targets with production certainty and new technological directions.
