Move over, Keanu. The AgiBot A3 humanoid is clearly gunning for a starring role in the next martial arts epic. This behind-the-scenes footage shows the 5ft 8in (173 cm) bot executing kung fu manoeuvres with a level of fluidity and poise that suggests it’s spent its downtime downloading the entire Matrix trilogy directly into its neural network. Developed by Shanghai-based AgiBot, the A3 is engineered for high-agility entertainment and commercial roles—though, judging by this performance, it’s already well on its way to earning a synthetic black belt.
