Agibot’s humanoid robots may give instructions and study your TikTok dances

For higher or worse, CES 2026 is already shaping as much as be a giant yr for humanoid robots. Chinese language firm Agibot confirmed up with two: the roughly human-sized A2 and the marginally smaller X2, each of which had been displaying their surprisingly spectacular dancing talents.

We watched each robots stroll round, wave at passersby and exhibit their greatest strikes. The bigger A2 largely stored its legs nonetheless and danced primarily with its arms. The smaller X2 however is a little more nimble — it has a bigger set of “toes” to provide it extra stability — and people talents had been on full show.

On the time we noticed them, the robots had been managed partially by an Agibot rep utilizing a devoted controller, however the firm advised me the robots are in a position to transfer autonomously in areas as soon as they have been in a position to make use of their onboard sensors to map out their  environmentThe firm, which has already shipped a number of thousand robots in China and plans to make them out there in the USA this yr, says each the A2 and X2 are supposed to supply a versatile platform so individuals can work together with the robots in quite a lot of conditions.

Agibot envisions the bigger A2 as a sort of hospitality helper robotic that may greet guests at museums or conferences (like CES) and supply instructions and even stroll alongside their human visitors.

The smaller X2 however might be suited to academic functions or different situations when you may want a robotic with barely extra human-like actions. It might even be a very good TikTok companion, as Agibot’s head of communications, Yuheng Feng defined to me. “Take a Tiktok video, for instance,you should use that video to coach the robotic, [so] it could possibly additionally dance precisely such as you did within the video.”

The corporate hasn’t given particulars on when its robots would possibly present up within the US or how a lot they may value. Feng advised me lots will rely on how firms wish to use them as a result of their {hardware} is ready to be personalized relying on the use case. For now, although, we’ll simply soak within the dance strikes.
