Unitree Teams With Guanglun; Apple Launches HALO as Humanoid-Robot Mass Production Hits Inflection
Unitree has formally reached a strategic cooperation with Guanglun Intelligent, while Apple simultaneously released HALO, a humanoid-robot autonomous control system, China Financial Network reported on November 8. The National Development and Reform Commission has explicitly backed embodied intelligence, with the Shougang Park real-scene training ground opened and competitions in Shanghai, Tai'an and Ma'anshan accelerating real-world validation. Research notes say 2026 is a key crossing point for humanoids from zero to one, with global shipments potentially jumping from thousands to tens of thousands of units. They argue Unitree, as the domestic hardware leader, directly benefits from technology landing and order ramp-up, and that its synergy with Guanglun will strengthen motion control and scene adaptation, while Apple's HALO pulls industry standards - together accelerating supply-chain convergence.
