Galgotias University Clarifies Robodog Ownership Dispute
Galgotias University on Tuesday clarified that the robodog shown in a viral video at the India AI Impact Summit 2026 was acquired from Chinese manufacturer Unitree and not built by the university. The video featured a professor, identified as Neha Singh, claiming the robot 'Orion' was developed at the Centre of Excellence; the university said the device is used for student teaching amid its stated ₹350 crore AI investments. Netizens criticized the apparent misattribution, prompting reputational backlash.
