▶ Official gala trailer

The tournament organized by EngineAI / URKL in Shenzhen is an event where humanoid robots compete in physical bouts resembling modern combat-sports galas. The difference? The fighters aren't humans, but robots controlled by systems developed by engineering teams from around the world.

// Who we are

Poland
in global
competition

We are an interdisciplinary team of engineers, researchers and AI technology creators from Poland. We build systems that let humanoid robots move in a dynamic, stable and effective way under the conditions of physical competition.

Our goal is a system that lets a robot not just perform individual moves, but react to the changing situation in a fight, keep its balance, make decisions and adapt its strategy in real time.

What we taught the robot

From a single move to a full sequence. Below we show behaviors we trained the robot to perform - the result of training in simulation carried over to real hardware through sim-to-real.
