New Delhi: After Galgotias University, which received backlash for showcasing a Chinese-built robotic dog at the India AI Impact Summit, claiming that it was created by its Centre of Excellence, now Wipro has also drawn scrutiny for allegedly displaying a similar robot, BusinessLine reported.The report, however, also cited people in the know stating that Wipro’s demo focused on its InspectAI solution, not the robot itself.A video circulating on social media, reported by NDTV, shows Wipro, one of India’s leading IT services companies, showcasing a robot dog that looks identical to ‘Orion’, the Go2 robot developed by Chinese tech firm Unitree, which was showcased by Galgotias University. Wipro, meanwhile, named it TJ.India AI Summit 2026 | Meet TJ, a robot that walks like a dog and thinks like an engineerWatch this report by NDTV’s @ravishranjanshu #AISummit pic.twitter.com/lVui0m4kVf— NDTV (@ndtv) February 17, 2026The Unitree Go2 robot dog.

Speaking to the media at the expo, Wipro said, “TJ (the robot dog) can go where it’s risky for human beings to enter. We can carry out inspections with this robot. It has an in-built AI model which can detect harmful scenarios like rusting and prevent the possibility of accidents,” BusinessLine reported.On its website, Wipro mentions InspectAI, a built-in artificial intelligence model, which brings computer vision models for addressing the visual inspection, labelling and surveillance needs of various industries.“InspectAI has the ability to collect data from a variety of inspection sources, including UAVs, magnetic crawlers, and various imaging assets (such as spectral, LiDAR, and other advanced cameras). Operators can plan the image-capture path and replay previously recorded inspection paths,” it states.Galgotias University spectacleAccording to reports, on February 6, Galgotias University had issued a sweeping press release declaring it had invested and deployed “more than Rs 350 crore toward artificial intelligence”, calling it “the largest AI investment ever made by a private university in India.”Its CEO, Dhruv Galgotia, was further quoted as saying, “When Indian institutions invest at this scale, India’s global leadership in AI is no longer an ambition. It becomes inevitable.”Today’s front page on Economic Times😅 pic.twitter.com/wAParUjVzG— Trendulkar (@Trendulkar) February 19, 2026However, on Wednesday (February 18), Galgotias University was instructed to clear its booth at the AI Impact Summit at Bharat Mandapam in Delhi. Power was cut off at the pavilion of the university after it was asked to vacate the expo. The claim over the Chinese-built robotic dog caused major embarrassment among internet users and media outlets that cover Chinese and Eurasian news, who slammed their AI exhibit calling it a sham. The institution subsequently issued a press release apologising “profusely” for the “confusion created”.“We at Galgotias University, wish to apologise profusely for the confusion created at the recent AI Summit. One of our representatives, manning the pavilion, was ill-informed. She was not aware of the technical origins of the product and in her enthusiasm of being on camera, gave factually incorrect information even though she was not authorised to speak to the press,” N.K. Gaur, registrar of Galgotias University wrote in the press release.
