NO.1 The first domestic robot football 3V3 AI game ends
The first test match of the 2025 World Humanoid Robot Games (the first domestic robot football 3V3 AI game) officially ended on June 28. After the group qualifiers and semi-finals, the Tsinghua Vulcan team won the championship 5:3, the Shanhai team of China Agricultural University won the runner-up, and the Power Intelligent Team of the Future Laboratory of Tsinghua University tied for third place and the Blaze Lightning Team of Beijing University of Information Technology.
It is reported that this competition is the first test match of the 2025 World Humanoid Robot Games and the first robot football 3V3 AI game in China. The biggest highlight of the game is that robot players no longer rely on the control of the remote control, but rely entirely on AI to complete the game independently, which also makes this game closer to a human football match.
Comments:The current robot football players are only close to the football level of five-year-old children and can complete some technical movements independently. In the future, in order to achieve robot football games more like human football games, breakthroughs need to be made in many aspects such as software research and development.
NO.2 Xiaomi Auto responds to the YU7 track test brake pads caught fire: Parking directly in extreme cases without cooling coils
Regarding the situation where the brake pads caught fire when testing Xiaomi YU7 on the track, Xiaomi Auto responded in the latest issue of netizens’ questions on the evening of June 28 that in the video, after Xiaomi YU7 Max performed “1 warm bead + 1 flight ring” in the Tianjin V1 Racecourse, it parked directly in the extreme case of no heat dissipation ring. The high temperature caused the brake pad organic material to catch fire, but the brake system did not have any braking failure problems, and the functions were sound and used normally. In addition, the test vehicle did not use the “Energy Recovery Enhancement” feature in the Xiaomi YU7 Max Master mode.
Comments:The physical characteristics of electric high-performance cars in extreme scenarios such as tracks (such as thermal load of the brake system) should have clearer user guidance to avoid misoperation. According to Xiaomi, this incident is a manifestation of material characteristics under extreme operating conditions. Although it does not constitute a daily safety hazard, it should also sound the alarm for the company. When popularizing high-performance experiences, the supporting user education and working conditions must be deepened simultaneously.
NO.3 Musk announces major progress in brain-computer interface: the number of subjects increases to 7 people is expected to control humanoid robots in the future
On June 27 local time, Musk’s brain-computer interface company Neuralink released an hour-long video showing their latest research results and product development directions. According to reports, there are currently 7 subjects in Neuralink, including 4 patients with spinal cord injury and 3 patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). These subjects are using relevant devices at high frequency, and the data shows that the average weekly usage time is about 50 hours, and the peak is more than 100 hours. Among them, it is interesting that Alex, a patient with spinal cord injury, will also connect Tesla’s humanoid robot Optimus robot to achieve more complex operations in the future. Musk said that in the future, people may use Neuralink to completely control Optimus’s body.
Comments:The integration of brain-computer interfaces and robotics technology is pushing humans to break through physiological limitations and move towards a new stage of “consciousness manipulating the physical world”. However, technological leaps are also accompanied by deep challenges: issues such as the protection of neural data privacy, the boundaries of awareness autonomy, and the enhancement of social equity in technology urgently need to be established in a global regulatory framework. While embracing the technological miracle, we also need to lay a solid ethical foundation for the era of “human-machine symbiosis”.
