The robot required our help to keep walking. They were to be plugged in or manually recharged.
Now, UBTech is changing.
The company’s new Humanoids, Walker S2 have a feature that can reopen the future of the factory work. It can swap its battery, which requires no human intervention. This means that it can be almost nonstop, 24/7.

How Walker S2 Robot Swaps its own battery
Instead of closing to recharge, the Walker S2 runs at a nearby swap station. When a battery starts running less, the robot replaces its torso, uses the underlying equipment on its arms and removes the dry battery. It then picks up a fresh, plugs it and immediately comes back to work. The entire process takes about three minutes. This system is similar to the battery-swapping technology used in electric vehicles. But this time, it is for humanoid robots.
What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)?
What can walker s2 robot do
Walker S2 is the size of a small adult. It is 5 feet, 3 inches long and weighs 95 pounds. It has two 48-volt lithium batteries. When someone comes out, it switchs to another. Each battery lasts for about two hours while running or four hours when the robot still stands. Swap station batteries also monitor health. If a battery starts down, a technician may change it.

Walker S2 Robot is designed for factory flooring
UBTech claims that the Walker S2 is designed for the use of the real world. It has been tested in car factories operated by Byd, Nio and Zeekr. These robots are not just for the show. They have vision systems to detect battery levels. A green light indicates that a battery is ready to use. The robot reads that, picks it up and plugs it using a USB-style connector. The robot also has a display face to communicate their position for human workers. And, yes, there is an emergency stop button, just in the case.

China is investing heavily in robotics. More than 1,600 robotics companies work in the home base of Shenzhen, UBTech. Projects range from humanoids to delivery robots that ride metro and restock the facility store. This step towards automation is about global competition. China is betting on AI and robotics to lead the next era of manufacturing.

What does it mean to you
Robots like Walker S2 are designed to work. It changes what the workplace looks, not only in factories, but everywhere. You can start looking at such machines in airports, godowns or even hospitals. They handle physical functions. You focus on thinking, planning or management.
For businesses, 24/7 automation means more output without adding more employees. It keeps moving forward at day and night. There is no preview of what this technique is now. It is starting to show on real job sites.

Kurt’s major takeaways
UBTech’s Walker S2 is an example of how the automation is moving beyond the laboratory and in the workplace. With battery swapping, humanoid robots may soon be able to work longer than any human. They do not take coffee brakes. They do not sleep. They just keep walking.
