On February 23, 2025, Shenzhen EngineAI Technology Co., Ltd. announced that it had successfully completed the world's first robot front flip stunt, which is a milestone in the history of robotics technology development and marks significant progress in robot movement and flexibility. The success of this front flip stunt is not only a demonstration of the technical strength of EngineAI, but also a major breakthrough in the field of robotics, providing a new direction and possibility for the development of robotics technology in the future.
1. Technological breakthrough: the perfect combination of kinematics, intelligent control and sensors
The front flip puts forward extremely high requirements for the robot's dynamic balance, instantaneous acceleration and precise landing. Through in-depth research on robot kinematics, combined with intelligent control algorithms and advanced sensor technology, EngineAI Technology has successfully overcome this technical problem. During the somersault, the robot needs to accurately calculate its center of gravity and attitude to achieve stable power distribution. EngineAI's engineering team used deep learning algorithms to simulate a variety of sports performance, and then optimized the response speed and stability of the robot. For example, the robot showed greater accuracy and stability when performing front flips, an improvement of more than 30% compared to previous technologies. This technological breakthrough not only improves the robot's motion performance, but also expands its application scenarios, which may be applied to more complex motion tasks in the future.

2. the strength and background of EngineAI Technology
Shenzhen EngineAI Robot Technology Co., Ltd. was established in October 2023, although it has been established for a short time, its core team has brought together the first batch of senior members in the field of legged and foot robot research and industrial landing in China, and has also attracted talents from many well-known universities in embodied intelligence and operation control algorithms. In October 2024, EngineAI launched the first full-size general-purpose humanoid robot SE01, which realizes the natural anthropomorphic gait for the first time, which shows higher flexibility and efficiency than the mechanical gait with stiff movements, high energy consumption and poor adaptability, and realizes the coordinated movement of all parts of the body. The success of this front flip stunt further verified the technical strength of EngineAI Robot in the field of robot motion control and dynamic balance, and also set a new technical benchmark for the industry.
3. Financing and strategic layout
EngineAI Technology recently completed a new round of financing of 200 million yuan invested by Middle East Capital, which will be used to accelerate the research and development of general intelligent robots and the expansion of industry scenario solutions. The injection of capital not only reflects the recognition of EngineAI by Middle Eastern investors, but also reflects the continuous attention of the global capital market to artificial intelligence and robotics. With the recent major breakthrough in technology, EngineAI Robot has once again attracted widespread attention inside and outside the industry. The company's latest technology not only succeeded in the world's first frontflip stunt of a humanoid robot, but also showed elegance and stability in walking motion, opening up new possibilities for the kinetic energy and flexibility of humanoid robots.
4. the impact of the industry and future prospects
This innovation of EngineAI Technology is not limited to the technical level, its product design focuses on "high appearance, elegant action, high speed and agility", aiming to promote the evolution of robots from functional tools to forms that are closer to human interaction needs. The success of this front flip technology may promote the application of humanoid robots in entertainment performances, emergency rescue, complex industrial environments and other fields. For example, in the medical field, if this flexible robot can be applied to rehabilitation training to help patients regain strength and coordination, it will greatly improve the quality of life of patients; In the education industry, similar robots can also be used as vivid teaching aids to help children understand physical principles and kinematics more intuitively, and stimulate their interest in learning. In the field of entertainment, such robots can appear in various exhibitions and performances, bringing stunning visual enjoyment to the audience.
However, despite the growing maturity of robotics, there are still challenges such as user privacy, safety, and ethical issues. Market analysts predict that competition in the field of intelligent robots will become more fierce in the future, especially in navigation systems, self-learning and visitor interaction. In addition, consumers' expectations for the functionality, stability and user experience of robot products will also promote related enterprises to increase R&D investment and promote healthy competition in the industry.
In short, the world's first robot front flip stunt completed by Shenzhen EngineAI Robot Technology Co., Ltd. demonstrated its strong technical strength in the field of robot motion control and dynamic balancing, set a new benchmark for the development of the entire robot industry, and also provided infinite possibilities for the application of robots in more fields in the future.
