AGIBOT brought together 110 Expedition A3 humanoid robots for a synchronized dance lasting 5 minutes and 43 seconds in Jinan, China, on 24 October 2026. An official adjudicator attended the demonstration, and AGIBOT received a Guinness World Records certificate.

The group performance took place at the Yellow River International Convention and Exhibition Center and involved human-sized humanoid robots. According to Shanghai Securities News and Pandaily, the Guinness World Records representative confirmed that 110 machines took part. The demonstration shows the coordination capabilities AGIBOT has developed to move several groups of robots at the same time.

How AGIBOT’s robots performed a group choreography with formation changes

According to a Wen Wei Po reporter at the event, the Expedition A3 robots performed synchronized movements and several formation changes. Among other things, the robots formed wave patterns and numbers making up a countdown.

Wang Chuang, partner and senior vice president at AGIBOT, told Wen Wei Po that the machines came straight off the manufacturer’s production lines, with no special preparation of their components for the performance.

He credits the quality of the execution to three technical elements: standardized joint calibration, motor torque tuning and motion libraries. These parameters allow coordinated movement sequences to be reproduced across multiple machines.

How LinkBots handles autonomous navigation and robot synchronization

The coordination relies on LinkBots, a platform developed by AGIBOT. According to Shanghai Securities News, it can program formations, manage autonomous navigation and control several groups of humanoid robots independently.

The manufacturer describes a technical architecture that combines several technologies:

  • 5G and Wi-Fi: communication between the robots and the coordination system.
  • Ultra-wideband (UWB) positioning: centimeter-level accuracy, as claimed by AGIBOT.
  • Synchronization: timing accuracy in the millisecond range, according to the manufacturer.
  • Disconnection handling: a claimed ability to adjust a formation locally when a robot loses its connection.

These features are meant to keep group movements consistent during a performance. The Jinan dance is a public demonstration of coordination, while the detailed technical performance of LinkBots reflects specifications announced by AGIBOT.

AGIBOT’s no-code choreography tools for robot shows

The demonstration is part of the manufacturer’s work on software for robot shows.

In October 2025, AGIBOT introduced LinkCraft, a no-code platform designed to turn videos of human movements into robot movements. It can also arrange actions, voices and expressions on a timeline.

LinkCraft was initially compatible with the Lingxi X2 robot and also offered group control for synchronized performances.

Wang Chuang told Wen Wei Po that the robots used in Jinan would then be assigned to various uses: public services, tourist shows, exhibition spaces, research and education.

Unitree’s humanoid robot shows and the UniUni control system

AGIBOT operates in a market where Unitree also stages group demonstrations. In February, a fleet of G1 robots performed martial arts moves, jumps and choreographies at the Temple of Heaven in Beijing. An estimate based on footage of the performance put their number at around 46 to 49 machines.

Unitree has also presented UniUni, a control system for robot shows. Its demonstration combines stage mapping, individual choreography programming, real-time robot monitoring and change requests made in natural language.

Guinness certificate vs. existing record: full-size humanoids set apart

Chinese media describe AGIBOT’s performance as the record for the “most humanoid robots dancing simultaneously”.

One distinction is worth making, however: Guinness World Records also lists a performance featuring 1,372 robots, organized by TIM in Rome in February 2018. These were UBTECH Alpha 1S models standing just under 40 centimeters tall, which Guinness also classified as humanoids.

The certificate awarded in Jinan therefore covers a performance by 110 human-sized Expedition A3 humanoids, while the existing Guinness record of 1,372 robots dancing simultaneously involves much smaller machines.
