   China hosts first robot race up Mount Tai's 3,100 stone steps

   AIChina hosted the first World Robot Mount Tai Climbing Race, where humanoid robots and robotic dogs climbed 3,100 ancient stone steps to a height of 1,968 feet. A wheeled-leg robot carried watermelons and raw eggs, and several robots outpaced reporters on the stairs. Robots that fell lost points.
