Product overview
Xuanyuan (轩辕) is a humanoid that Beijing Xuanjing Technology entered in the 2025 Beijing Yizhuang humanoid robot half marathon, held on 19 April 2025. The entry list gives 172 cm, 88 kg and an arm payload of about 20 kg. It also lists hands fitted with multi-dimensional force sensors, AI consultation and intelligent emotion recognition.
Race coverage says the robot originally weighed 67 kg and that the team added heavier motors and batteries before the race. In the event it sat down about 50 m after the start, was readjusted, stood up again and continued at roughly 2 km per hour. The company's chief executive had said beforehand that it could not finish on time. A Red Star News report appears to reverse the Xuanyuan and Shennong roles and race outcomes; this record follows the event listing and Sina's detailed interview with Xuanjing's chief executive.
The sources reviewed do not give degrees of freedom, battery capacity, runtime or compute figures, and the only sensing detail is the hand force sensors. No marketed Xuanyuan product page was found, so it is not confirmed whether the race configuration matches any model sold. The robot is listed as a prototype, with no price or purchase route.
