Three robots that can dance and do gymnastics made their debut performance in Harbin, capital city of northeastern China's Heilongjiang Province on Friday.

Shaped like the "autobox" in the U.S. blockbuster Transformers and designed by the multi-agent robot research center of the Harbin Institute of Technology, the robots can imitate and perform all kinds of body movements and was warmly welcomed during the campus show.

The robots will take part in the China Import & Export Fair to be held in Guangzhou this October.
