On October 23, 2026, a global embodied intelligence industry development analysis report put forward the judgment: embodied intelligence is moving from proof of concept into the inflection point stage of industrialization and commercialization. The report also provided industry data: in the first half of 2026, global humanoid robot shipments were about 19,000 units, with Chinese manufacturers' share rising to over 97%; in 2025, global shipments were about 25,000 units, with China accounting for about 52%, and global embodied intelligence financing exceeded 11 billion US dollars. The report holds that the industry has entered its first year of mass production and a commercialization inflection point, but the ratio of intended orders to actual deliveries is only about 10%—20%, and commercialization remains a key bottleneck; it also points out that China and the United States are positioned in a staggered manner along the value chain, with the United States strong in the "brain" and computing power capital, and China strong in the "body" and supply chain mass production. There are currently no subsequent development facts.
