Footage captures Russia’s first anthropomorphic robot, AIdol, toppling seconds into its debut at a Moscow tech event, prompting assistants to rush in after the mishap.
One of the first humanoid robots in Russia collapsed on stage as it was presented in Moscow on Tuesday.
The anthropomorphic robot, known as AIDOL, fell soon after walking onto the stage and staff rushed to shield it from journalists and guests with black curtains.
The company’s CEO, Vladimir Vitukhin, told Russian news outlet RBK that the robot had been tested under various conditions, and the fall could have occurred due to insufficient lighting or a malfunction.
