Xinhua and UBTECH unveil "Xinyan" and "Xinyu", China's first bionic humanoid news anchors with Zhang Yimou as lead designer
全球首个仿生人形机器人新闻主播正式发布，导演张艺谋担任其形象主创设计师
On November 5, Xinhua News Agency and UBTECH jointly launched two 1:1 scale bionic humanoid news anchors named "Xinyan" and "Xinyu," designed by director Zhang Yimou. Leveraging the "Xinhua Yu Dian" AI agent and full-stack embodied intelligence hardware, these units deliver verified authoritative content to mitigate generative AI hallucinations. The system operates as a new editorial role for news broadcasting rather than an autonomous replacement for human journalists.
