Humanoid robot shipments surged nearly 300% in H1 2026 to over 22,000 units. Full-year forecast now sits above 50,000.
AGIBOT captured 43% share with ~9,700 units. Unitree took 31% with 7,000+. Top five vendors control 86% of the market.
Entertainment, performance, data collection and R&D still drive 60%+ of volume. But manufacturing climbed to 13%, warehousing & logistics to 5%, and service applications to 19%.
The shift matters: pilot projects in factories, logistics and public services are moving from trial to deployment in H2.
This is early-stage adoption crossing into commercial scale. Watch the supply chain—sensors, actuators, vision systems, and edge compute. The leaders in humanoid robotics infrastructure are positioning now for the next wave of industrial automation.
