Some people think robots are terrifying and will soon control our lives. Others think of them as fun, adorable companions [1] that can help out with household tasks. You can decide how you truly feel about them after watching 1,069 robots break a Guinness World Record [2] for "most robots dancing simultaneously."
The record was broken in Guangzhou, Guangdong, on Aug. 18 by Dobi robots [3] and WL Intelligent Technology Co. Ltd. The robots look tiny people that can move, talk, and yes, even play football. Instead of exercising, though, these robots broke out in a synchronized dance routine.
Surprisingly, this wasn't the first time a record had been set; Ever Win Company & Ltd. received the title in 2016 [5], with 1,007 robots dancing. Watch the full video above, and prepare to be mesmerized by their dance moves.
