AgiBot Expedition A3 sets dance record with 110 humanoid robots

AgiBot Expedition A3 humanoids set a Guinness World Records title for the most humanoid robots dancing simultaneously, with 110 machines performing in Jinan, China, on October 24, 2026, according to Global Times. The robots executed synchronized routines and formation changes using AgiBot’s LinkBots cluster control platform and ultra wideband positioning. AgiBot said the positioning technology enables centimeter level accuracy and described the challenge as a test of coordinating large numbers of robots while maintaining precise positions.

The reported routine included repositioning, jumps and flips. For robotics operators, the technical interest lies less in the choreography than in maintaining coordinated motion across 110 mobile machines. That is a distinct task from sustaining reliable work in an unpredictable environment. Wang Peng, an associate research fellow at the Beijing Academy of Social Sciences, told Global Times that changing lighting, ground surfaces and unexpected obstacles can affect robot performance, while small errors can accumulate during prolonged tasks. He also argued that coordination and sharing experience gained through operation could help lower operating costs per robot.

The record therefore offers a concrete demonstration of fleet coordination, rather than a measure of industrial productivity. AgiBot’s stated next uses are closer to the performance setting: the company said the robots will be deployed in cultural and tourism performances, alongside public services, scientific research and education. Those plans would put the same fleet into settings where repeatable choreography, positioning and coordinated movement have a direct operational role.
