During a preparation session for the second World Humanoid Robot Games, held this afternoon, the Glory robot known as Lightning completed a 100-meter sprint test in an astonishing 9.32 seconds, hitting a peak velocity of 14.5 meters per second. This remarkable feat once again eclipses the previous human world record of 9.58 seconds in the 100-meter dash, and the robot is now set to compete in the 100m, 400m, and 1500m events at the upcoming competition.
The Lightning robot's performance underscores its instantaneous explosive power, rapid gait switching, and millisecond-level balance control, pushing the boundaries of extreme-speed locomotion for robots. The exceptional endurance, advanced heat dissipation, and robust reliability demonstrated on the track are directly inherited from the technological DNA of the Glory Magic series. These technologies, honed under extreme conditions, are slated to make a full return in the upcoming Magic9 series.
