Robots ran in a 21 km race in China recently.

Some of the robots were 1.8 metres tall, and some were only 1.2 metres.

They ran with normal runners.

Each robot had a person with them.

The person helped them to go the right way.

There were one or two accidents on the way.

The robot 'Tiangong Ultra' was the first machine to finish the race.

The company's technology expert is Tang Jian.

He said they did lots of research.

They used professional sportspeople.

This is the first race with both humans and robots.

It was a chance for companies to show their products.

A human won the race.

Huang Xiaoyu and her daughter watched.

They know things are changing.
