We knew that humanoid robots would reach factories. Nvidia has already chosen where and when to start, according to Reuters

by

When did humanoid robots stop being a spectacle to become a tool? Maybe that’s right there. Sources consulted by Reuters They assure that Nvidia and Foxconn are in conversations to display them in a server manufacturing plant of artificial intelligence in Houston. Nvidia has trusted the Taiwanese giant to lift a new server manufacturing plant in Houston, Texas. The objective: produce the GB300its new AI servers based on architecture Blackwellwithin the ambitious plan for relocate part of its production in US territory. As Reuters has advanced, both companies are in conversations to display humanoid robots in this factory. The intention would be that they begin to operate in the First quarter of 2026. If concrete, it will mark a double milestone: it would be the first time that a NVIDIA product is manufactured with the help of these tools, and also the first use of this technology by Foxconn in a production line of AI servers. Houston is not any factory: something new is prepared here For now, the details are scarce. It is not known how many robots will be used, how will they look or what exact functions they will perform. But there are indications. In an internal presentation of May, Foxconn showed how he was training humanoid robots for tasks such as manipulating objects, inserting cables or making basic assemblies, usual activities in the manufacture of servers. Houston’s choice is not accidental. Being a new plant, spaces are being designed with margin to integrate these technologies From the beginningsomething much more complex to achieve in already operational facilities. According to one of the sources consulted, that design would facilitate the incorporation of humanoid robots in the line. NVIDIA GB300 has a rack scale design That Nvidia bet on humanoid robots in its production chain is not just a logistics movement. It is also a declaration of intentions. Until now, no company product had been manufactured with the help of this type of robots. And Foxconn, the largest manufacturer on the commission of the world, had not used them in a production line dedicated to AI servers. The decision, according to what the sources have told Reuters, would mark the beginning of a new stage for both companies. In the case of Foxconn, it would also serve to show the world the advances in robotics who has been developing with Nvidia, although third -party models such as those of China Ubtech have also been tested. For Nvidia, the movement fits with its broader strategy. The company not only designs chips for AI models training: it also offers A development platform Specific for humanoid robots, with visual, motor and cognitive abilities based on their own architectures. In March, Jensen Huang himself He predicted that The generalized use of humanoid robots in industrial environments would come “in less than five years.” They are not alone: ​​Tesla, Mercedes, BMW, China The idea of ​​incorporating humanoid robots into the assembly lines is no longer a rarity. Although its deployment is still limited and experimental, several manufacturers have been testing this technology for some time in controlled environments or in very specific tasks. Among them BMW stands out, that has made trials in American plants. And it is known that Teslawhich has developed its own humanoid robot called OptimusHe has put at least two units to work in a production line. But interest is not limited to the great western brands. China has converted humanoid robotics into a national strategic priority Within its Made in China 2025 plan. Companies like Ubtech – whose model has also been evaluated by Foxconn – are being driven directly by the government with a view to transforming the country’s industrial fabric. Strategic alliances are part of this mission Like Huawei and Ubtech Specified this year. This possible deployment of humanoid robots in Houston does not occur in a vacuum. Is part of a broader movement, driven by political pressure and the strategic need of Relocate production Technological on American soil. In April, Nvidia announced its intention To manufacture AI infrastructure of up to 500,000 million dollars in the US in the next four years, with partners such as TSMC, Wistron and Foxconn itself. For many companies, automating is a matter of survival. The Houston factory, still under construction, is part of that strategy. But producing locally implies facing at least one new problem: the shortage of labor. And that is where automation would come into play. Perhaps not essentially for these factories, but as a test field for possible future expansions. For many companies, automating is no longer a matter of improvement. It is a matter of survival. Thus, more and more local actors are developing humanoid robots designed specifically for the industry. Tesla, Figure, Apptronik or Agility Robotics They are among the companies that have opted for this new generation of machines. Jeff Burnstein, president of the Association for Advancing Automation, summed up axios The new industrial reality: “This is how it competes today”, so “you have to take advantage of the best available tools.” Humanoid robots lived for years with skepticism: beautiful exhibitions, Little useful in practice. Now, that perception is turning. We are faced with a change that aims to be important, but whose real range we will know only over time.

The latest in Robotics of South Korea is not humanoid or works in factories. Does something out of the ordinary: Parkour

by

The physical state. As detailed in A video available on YouTube, the first step is taken by the planner, which generates possible routes from a map of the environment. That map is continuously updated with sensor and simulations data. Then, a neuronal network rules out risky options and stays with the most efficient. The tracker, on the other hand, guides the precise movements of the robot. It was trained through reinforcement learning, a technique based on trial and error, which prepared it to adapt to dynamic and challenging scenarios. To save calculation time, Raibo reuses their own footprints: the hind legs step on where they did the front before. Raibo training simulation As they count, the robot was able to run on irregular surfaces, overcome stones, cross inclined ramps, climb stairs and even jump gaps of more than one meter. It reached a speed of 2.7 meters per second. And the most surprising: if the goal moved, the robot detected and recalculated its route without help, without stopping and without losing control. Meanwhile, robotics does not stop in the rest of the world. Raibo’s advance is not an isolated case. It is part of a global wave of developments in which robotics and AI are more and more intertwined. Without ia, robots would continue to be little more than a set of sensors and engines. With AI, they are able to interpret their environment, make decisions and execute complex tasks with autonomy. Companies like Google are betting on it. With Gemini Roboticstheir last great project, have designed a system capable of controlling different types of robots in real time, understanding human language, pointing to 3D objects and adapting to new situations without prior training. The search engine giant says that his performance in unforeseen tasks doubles that of previous models. For now, this technology is in the test phase, but Google already collaborates with companies such as Apptronik or Boston Dynamics to integrate it into advanced humanoids. China is also accelerating. And it is not the only region that is investing strong in this direction. In China, humanoid robots not only train: they compete. A few weeks ago, The country celebrated a Kickboxing tournament Between four G1 robots by Unitree Robotics. He was broadcast live and showed how these machines were able to dodge blows, get up alone after falling and continue fighting with surprising agility. They are 35 kilos robots and up to 23 degrees of freedom, designed with state -of -the -art sensors, and according to organizers, new multisport competitions are already in preparation. Robots developed in China in a boxing ring And there are already robots working in real factories. Meanwhile, in the United States, some humanoid robots have left the laboratory and are entering real factories. One of them is Figure 01, that has long worked in a BMW plant in South Carolina. This robot, developed by the Figure company, can open doors, climb stairs and manipulate objects autonomously. Of course, it still moves slowly and needs to be connected by cable permanently. Parkour as the advancement of the future. All this helps to understand why Raibo’s case is so fascinating. It is not humanoid, nor has it been created for industry or home. But it shows that, combining real -time decision algorithms with light hardware and advanced training, it is possible to create machines that not only execute orders, but also improvise and have an agility that causes vertigo. Touch to wait to know how these advances find a place in really useful applications. There will be the real leap.

China has celebrated a kickboxing tournament between humanoid robots, and is as real as disturbing

by

What is just over a decade was only science fiction today has become a real show. In 2011, the movie ‘Real Steel‘I imagined a future in which boxing fighting were starring machines. Fourteen years later, that image has ceased to belong to the cinema: China has just celebrated a Kickboxing competition starring humanoid robots. The event took place in Hangzhou and is part of the CMG World Robot Contest Series, an initiative organized by China Media Group, the largest state audiovisual conglomerate in the country. The competition was broadcast live through CCTV and other official platforms. Currently, a video summary of the tournament It is available on the Central Television website of China. As the aforementioned medium collectsIn the quadrilateral there were four G1 robots manufactured by the Asian company Unitree Robotics. They faced one against one in duels, demonstrating not only gross force, but also agility, coordination and, above all, balance. Of fist tests. Before the official fighting, each robot had its time to heat. The G1 showed their repertoire: lateral displacements, direct blows and reaction to the thrust. During the fighting, they were even able to execute a Kip-Upan acrobatic maneuver to get up from the ground without using your hands, after being demolished. The rules were clear. Three two -minute assaults. Valid blow score to the trunk or head, both with hands and feet. Penalizations if a robot could not get up in eight seconds after a fall. In case of draw, he decided the technical score. In the final, the robot controlled by an influencer called Lu Xin took the title. The competition comes a few weeks after another event that also captured worldwide attention: A Half Marathon held in Beijing where several humanoid robots ran alongside thousands of human participants. So are the G1. According to the manufacturerEach Unitree G1 measures 130 cm, weighs 35 kg and has an external cable design. It is articulated with up to 23 degrees of freedom, which are extended up to 43 in its educational version, and has advanced sensors for vision, movement and environment control. These are some of its key characteristics: Intel Realsense depth chamber D435i and 3D Lidar sensor Four microphones with noise cancellation and stereo speakers of 5 w Permanent magnet synchronous engines with a maximum torque of 120 n · m 9,000 mAh battery, approximate autonomy of two hours Displacement speed: Up to 2 m/s Eight -core CPU, Wi -Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity Possibility of adding the hand DEX3-1, with seven degrees of freedom and optional tactile sensors More than show. According to CCTV coverage, G1 have at least eight basic combat patterns and various complex combinations, such as straight punches, hooks and kicks scheduled. In addition, they have been designed to resist impacts, avoid overheating and maintain balance after receiving blows. Even when they fall, they are able to recover the vertical position in seconds. China already prepares new competitions with humanoid robots for this year, including a multi -sports event in Beijing. Meanwhile, other robotics based on the Asian giant seek to gain ground in homes. Huawei and Ubtech were recently allied to advance in the development of this type of automatons.

China prepares its next technological assault. Huawei and Ubtech have just allying to bring humanoid robots to homes

Humanoid robotics is ceasing to be a laboratory experiment. Bank of America Global Research CREE that its mass adoption could begin in 2028, with an industry that, if the forecasts were met, will move billions annually. Actually, the change is already underway: in 2025 about 18,000 units should be delivered and it is expected that by 2030 the million annual shipments will be reached, with a view to exceeding 10 million around 2035. While Tesla, Boston Dynamics and Figure AI develop their own humanoids in the US, in China a strategic alliance with global ambitions has been forged. As Sina points outHuawei, one of the country’s largest technological ones, and Ubtech Robotics, one of the most consolidated developers in the sector, have signed an agreement to collaborate in the development of humanoid robots for factories and homes. China steps on the accelerator in the humanoid robots sector The announcement was made in Shenzhen, a city where both companies are headded and considered by one of the main technological centers in southern China. As explained, the objective is to accelerate the transition of humanoid robotics “of laboratory innovation to the Large -scale adoption in industrial, domestic environments and other scenarios. ”Huawei will contribute its Ascend processors and Kunpengas well as cloud computing capabilities and generative AI models. The Alliance also contemplates the creation of an innovation center dedicated to the so -called “incarnate intelligence”: an approach that seeks to integrate cognitive functions into robotic bodies, which requires advanced coordination between algorithms, sensors, movement control and decision -making in real time. According to Leaderobot consultancythe Chinese domestic market of humanoid robotics could double this year and reach 5.3 billion yuan (about 665 million euros). Several of the country’s main manufacturers have already announced plans to overcome 1,000 units produced in 2025. Ubtech is one of them. Its president, Zhou Jian, confirmed it in March. Tien Kung Xingzhe, one of Ubtech’s robots This movement is part of a broader national strategy. As the New York Times detailsthe Chinese government is betting on industrial automation as part of its response to several challenges: commercial challenges, the fall in the birth and aging of the population. In factories such as Zeekr in NOBO, robots already perform tasks that previously required specialized labor. The objective is to maintain low costs and reinforce global competitiveness. And there is more. With the aim of encouraging the adoption of humanoid robots in the automobile industry, the Chinese authorities asked manufacturers to rent units, record videos in real environments and send them to the government. Even in the symbolic field there are blunt gestures: in April, Beijing organized a half marathon with 12,000 human runners and 20 humanoid robots. Only six crossed the goal, but the message was clear. Bank of America Global Research expect this sector evolve in three stages: first in factories and logistics (2025-2027), then in commercial and educational services (2028-2034), And finally in homeswith care and domestic applications from 2035. If the forecasts are met, in 2060 there could be 3,000 million humanoid robots in use worldwide. The challenge is not less. There are still technological bottlenecks, high production costs and dependence on tools and chips manufactured outside China. But with alliances such as Huawei and Ubtech, the Asian giant seems to be taking another determined step not to be left behind. What is clear is that the career to develop more advanced humanoid robots is underway. Images | Rubaitul Azad | Ubtech Robotics In Xataka | Klarna presumed that AI did the work of 700 people.

Hyundai aims to automate 40% of his new plant in the US. THE KEY TO GET IT: ATLAS HUMANoid Robots

by

Robots have been in the automobile industry for decades. They have welded, pressed and assembled pieces without rest. But despite that long career, many tasks were still in human hands. That is starting to change. Robots are less and less clumsy: They are more skilled, more versatile and, most importantly, much cheaper to manufacture. And that opens the door to a new phase. Hyundai wants to be in charge of that change. On your new plant HMGMA (Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America), located on the outskirts of Savannah (Georgia, USA), the company has proposed to automate 40% of the vehicle assembly process before the end of 2025. According to Nikkei Asiathe objective is to transform this factory into an intelligent environment, where artificial intelligence and data are key from logistics to the final assembly. A connected and flexible ecosystem. The plant is designed not only as a assembly line, but as a demonstration of everything Hyundai is able to do with technology. The brand defines it as “a highly connected, automated and flexible manufacturing system”, prepared to adapt to changes in demand and optimize each phase of the process. That is why it is no coincidence that starts focused on the production of electric and hybrid vehicles, with an estimated initial capacity of 100,000 units a year, which will grow to 500,000 when it is at full performance. The Metaplant aspires to become one of the referents of the automobile industry of the present and the future. Atlas enters the scene. In that technological deployment, the focus is on a very concrete protagonist: Atlas, Boston Dynamics’s humanoid robot. It is not any robot. It is a completely electric model, designed to move as a human and work in the same space as humans. Atlas is the successor of the famous hydraulic model that we saw mortal somersaults. But this time, the approach is another. It is prepared to lift heavy objects, install parts and adapt to what happens around you in real time. Hyundai describes it As a robot with “athletic intelligence”, and that translates into sensors, algorithms and a structure designed for complex tasks that one person could only do. Boston Dynamics is already part of the Hyundai group. This movement makes sense because Boston Dynamics is not just any partner: It is part of the Hyundai group since 2021. Since the company was made, the South Korean firm has been integrating its technology within its vision of “progress for humanity.” A vision that includes autonomous cars, urban air mobility, robotics in logistics and, of course, new ways of manufacturing. Boston Dynamics has been working with biped and quadruped robots for years, and now faces the challenge of taking them to the commercial field. If Atlas works in this plant, it will mark a before and after. Because it is no longer just impressing in a viral video: it is about a robot being useful and productive on a large scale. What tasks will the robots perform? Hyundai has not detailed all the works that Atlas will assume, but, according to the aforementioned Asian newspaper, it has confirmed some: move heavy objects, install doors in vehicles and collaborate in physical tasks that require strength and precision. The objective is clear: to free human operators from repetitive or demanding works. Now, that does not mean that Atlas is just as agile as an expert operator. For now, it is not. Just see some assembly line videos To ask ourselves if robots will be as skilled as humans. Atlas will not be the only one in the plant. They will also deploy The well -known spotdog -shaped robots that also manufactures Boston Dynamics. Its function will be to monitor production lines, inspect bodies and identify possible structural defects. And next to you they will live more classic automation systems: welding robots, presses and heavy machinery. A context marked by the tariff war. This deployment does not happen in a vacuum. It arrives in the middle of the commercial war between the United States and China. The administration Trump has imposed a 145% tariff To many products from China and maintains a base rate of 10% for most commercial partners, including South Korea. That is why Hyundai has decided to bet on American territory. Has announced An investment of 21,000 million dollars in the United States over the next four years. A strategy that seeks to protect its position in the North American market and, at the same time, gain margin of maneuver against geopolitical uncertainty. Of course, automating more does not necessarily mean hiring more. Hyundai’s expansion is accompanied by strong robotization. And that raises questions about employment. Will less operators be hired? Will new roles emerge within factories? The advance is indisputable, although it does not guarantee new jobs.

Figure creates a system to make large -scale humanoid robots. And of course, there will be robots manufacturing robots

We had something forgotten to robots, but for A few months We don’t stop to return to hear about them. There are important efforts from companies such as Nvidia – who just put All meat on the grill-, Boston Dynamics or Teslabut there is another company that is pushing strong in this sector. It is called Figure, and has just announced a promising project. Botq. This is the name of the mass manufacturing platform of humanoid robots Announced by Figure. The idea is simple: to create a totally oriented infrastructure to that production of high volumes of robots that end up being used in all types of scenarios. 12,000 humanoid robots per year. The first generation of Botq will be able to produce 12,000 humanoid robots a year, but the company highlights that this is only the beginning “and we will climb considerably from there.” Manufacture with vertical integration. The company will control the construction process and its quality to ensure that the robots that end in the market have according to them the highest quality. They have also been working on software solutions for months to attend these high volume manufacturing processes. Robots building robots. The Humanoid Robots of Figure They already caught our attention last summer, and now these robots will participate in the manufacture of other humanoid robots. That, they say, will happen this year, but in addition “the number of humanoid robots involved (in manufacturing) will grow substantially over time to increase the automation of production lines.” By the way: Elon Musk has an identical idea. Figure 03 on the way. Its current humanoid robot was complex both in necessary elements and in manufacturing processes, but with it they have learned how they can reduce the number of components and how to improve production. And more efficient processes. Thus, instead of CNC machines they will use techniques such as injection molding or pressure foundry that allow “thousands of hours of manufacturing.” In fact, in some components that needed a week to be manufactured with CNC machines, times have gone from only 20 seconds.

A company has created a humanoid robot of 38,000 euros and can already be reserved

Imagine it: A humanoid robot serves you a glass in your favorite bar, another directs traffic with millimeter precision and, in the bank or in the hospital, a human aspect welcomes you. Some even find a company in these automatons designed to look empathic. In a world in constant progress, the future seems clear: humanoid robots will be everywhere. How much is missing for this vision to come true? We do not know with certainty. Nor what unknown challenges will arise along the way. What is a fact is that the career to develop humanoids is more intense than ever. And in that global competition, With companies from the United States and China in frontthe last movement of China Ubtech Robotics does not go unnoticed. A real -scale humanoid. The Beijing and Ubtech Robotics Humanoid Robots Innovation Center have made known Tien Kung Xingzhe, a humanoid robot with dimensions similar to those of an adult. As we can see in the images, its design is quite futuristic, with a metal torso in gray and black tones, articulated arms and a head without facial features. But beyond its aesthetics, it stands out for several advantages: Advanced biomimetism. Its structure and movements are designed to imitate with great precision those of a human being, allowing him to interact more naturally with his environment. Maximum stability. It can move fluently even in complicated land such as mountains, stairs, sand or snow, without losing balance or compromising your performance. Disated to resist impacts. The key parts of the robot are manufactured with titanium alloy, which should reduce the total weight without compromising its structure. High performance and efficiency. Designed to operate with precision and stability in research environments, guaranteeing reliable and consistent results. Gran expansion capacity. It is compatible with additional modules such as depth cameras, lidar, strength sensors, collaborative arms of seven degrees of freedom and robotic hands of five fingers, which allows you to adapt to different needs. The Tien Kung Xingzhe has a bionic torso configuration and an anthropomorphic movement control system, which allows it to move with surprising fluidity. It has 20 degrees of freedom (DOF), that is, 20 articulation points that allow it to imitate with greater realism human movements. The more degrees of freedom has a robot, the more precise and natural its displacement will be. A robot for research. Despite the advances in robotics, the humanoids we have seen in science fiction are still far from reaching our homes. Therefore, Tien Kung Xingzhe is designed for the world of research. Its price, 299,000 yuan (about 38,000 euros), places it in an accessible category for development centers and universities. In line with its purpose, it has an open structure that allows access to its motor, sensors and movement control interfaces. It also includes documentation and code examples to facilitate customization and development of new applications. Do not wait too long. For those who closely follow the evolution of humanoid robotics, the Tien Kung Xingzhe is now available for early orders in China and deliveries are planned to begin in the second quarter of this year. If the deadlines are fulfilled, an Asian company could have advanced to several of the proposals that are being developed in the United States. It is true that we talk about different categories: while Kung Xingzhe is designed for research, other companies, such as Tesla with their Optimus robot, seek to produce mass humanoids for industrial tasks. However, in terms of early availability and adoption, China seems to be taking more than interesting steps.

China is openly promoting the development of humanoid robots as its next great technological revolution after its success with electric cars. A few days ago, according to NikkeiShenzen activated a plan that includes financing and political support to promote advances in components, AI chips and biomimetic technologies. Why is it important. It is a movement that coincides and much with Elon Musk’s plans with Tesla, whose Optimus robot It could begin its production at the end of this year, first for internal use and then to market from 2026. This convergence has a lot to do with the entrance of Tesla in China and the effect it had when transforming its electric car industry. In figures. 56% of the 100 traded companies dedicated to robotics are based in China, according to A Morgan Stanley report. In addition, 45% of companies that customize robots for the end user are Chinese. The context. This plan is accompanied by several similar initiatives since 2023. Shanghai wants to create a 1 billion yuan robotics industry (about 137,000 million dollars) this year. While, Beijing has announced a fund of 13,000 million dollars for robotics and a humanoid innovation center. Paul Gong, head of automotive research at UBS Investment Bank, Describe To Musk as the “spiritual leader” of the sector, a paper that also played with electric vehicles. “The introduction of the concept of humanoid robot has led many Chinese companies to explore this address,” he says. The threat. The intensification of geopolitical tensions could have consequences. Lu Hanchen, director of Shenzhen Gaogong Industry Research, warns that the United States could restrict the export of optimus robots to China and block the entry of Chinese humanoid robots into the US market, referring to concerns about data security and data management. And now what? According to Bernstein Research projectionshumanoid robots could reach: By 2025: less than 10 million units for entertainment, R&D and education. By 2028: tens of millions for specific tasks in general environments. By 2035: more than 100 million for general tasks in hospitals and restaurants. By 2050: more than 1,000 million performing most human work. The collaboration with Chinese suppliers will be basic for Tesla. At the same time, Chinese companies will move trying to reduce foreign component dependence. It is an interesting paradox: Washington and Beijing have an increasingly tense relationship, but at the same time their industrial ecosystems remain intertwined. The race for humanoid robots is intuited as another scenario in which mutual dependence and atrocious competition between both blocks will have to live together. And the figure of Musk will win integers in that clash. In Xataka | Unitree is one of the Chinese technological jewels.

We already have so many “humanoid” robots that it costs to differentiate some of the tros. This chart fixes it

We are determined to create robots that look like us. It all started in 1980 with a original Boston Dynamics that already had prototypes of robots capable of Give mortal jumps and walk to Pata Cojawith designs that would later be recovered for wonders such as Spot. The industry has advanced a lot in these 30 years and of those robots almost from the science fiction of the 80s, we have moved to humanoid robots with amazing abilities. And in this graph prepared by Visual Capitalist We can see some of the most representative in recent months: Police photo. The Boston Dynamics HD Atlas was the one that began this fever for humanoid robots. We have seen it do everything, but life is hard and The time for retirement arrived. A new generation, the new Atlas, stronger and capable of its joints, reached the company’s testing field now owned by Hyundaibut as can be seen in the graph, it is not very different from the rest of the competitors. Chinese models are missing. In this kind of police file, we have a majority presence of American robots, being the PHOENIX of Sanctuary AI and the H1 of Unitree the only ones who are not Americans. And yes, it is true that US companies are very focused on the creation of these devices, but many China models are missing. The Asian giant is immersed in a technological revolution (despite the severe western restrictions) and has within its borders companies that They are competing Not only to create robots to integrate into your society, but do it on a large scale. One of the maximum exponents, apart from the UNITREE H1, is the Agibot company with the models A2 and A2 Max. Like Americans, they have a IA processor that allows you to collect data from abroad and act accordingly. In addition, these models are multimodal, so they also understand information provided through text or audio. There are also the Robothera Star1 (considered the fastest in the world), the Ubtech Walker S1 or the GR-1 of Fourier Intelligence. China wants to work. Despite all those absences, it is clear that we have been seeing demonstrations of these robots for years, but few examples of them performing the work for which they have been programmed in the real world (with exceptions like BMW’s figure). It is precisely China where the accelerator are most treading at the moment due to the need. The GR-1, for example, was programmed to exercise as a nurse with the aim of responding to a need: The country is increasingly old And there is no generational relief capable of taking care of their elders, or who wants work in some industries. The intention of the country It is to create a National Network of Services for the Elderly in 2029 with the aim that all older citizens have access to basic services. Among the tasks of these robots, are domestic services, health monitoring or emotional company. But we can not only talk about humanoid robots, since China too He is testing robots ‘Lazarillos’ And it has its own spot working as a mobile paper. 2025 looks like the year. The interesting thing is that, beyond the tests in some scenarios in China and the United States, the main players in this segment are clear that 2025 should be the year in which the explosion of robots begins. At the end of 2024, Agibot said they were ready for their robots to take the streets thanks to 1,000 models produced; Tesla wants to produce in mass Optimus gen 2 This 2025, with between 50,000 and 100,000 units Facing 2026 And the Chinese government itself marked 2025 as a target year so that the robots of their companies are available to buy. I, robot. There are many other companies, such as the Norwegian 1x with their Neo Beta and Neo Gamma whose objective will be to clean the house that are also in this wave of robotics, but beyond the companies that aspire to create mass robots this 2025, there are others that want to get into the car in one way or another. An example is goal, Mark Zuckerberg’s company that is betting strongly to the development of artificial intelligence and that, precisely, wants Its AI is the brain of some of these robots. And, speaking of great technological ones, We have Apple’s examplewhich also seems to be looking for the way to put the leg in the home robot segment, with a device similar to An iPad with robotic arm First and humanoid robots as a final objective. In the end, as we say, after years of demonstrations, it seems that 2025 will be the year in which robots will cease to be simple fair attractions to integrate into our day to day.

His new great bet are advanced humanoid robots, according to Bloomberg

by

After getting rid of 5% of its workforce at the beginning of the yearMeta has created a team destined to develop its next great ambition: humanoid robots driven by artificial intelligence (AI). The news comes from Bloombergwhich states that the company led by Mark Zuckerberg will make a “significant investment” this new project. The sources point out that androids will be able to interact with users and will help them perform daily tasks. Goal aspires that its technology helps overcome current barriers where robots have certain limitations to wear a glass of water without scattering, placing them dishes on a shelf to clean them or bend clothes. A team within reality labs Instead of creating a new division, the giant of social networks has decided Metaversoglasses Quest 2, Quest 3 and Quest Proas well as smart glasses Ray-Ban Meta. The initiative will be led by Marc Whittenwho until recently served as CEO of the Cruise Autonomous Vehicle Company owned by General Motors. He previously led the Amazon entertainment devices division and worked for 17 years in Microsoft, where he was an engineer of the original Xbox team. According to the aforementioned medium, Meta seeks to focus on the underlying sensors and software of robberies, including an artificial intelligence system. It is an attempt to use part of the technology developed for its virtual and extended reality products. The glasses, for example, have multiple sensors to, for example, eye tracking. Neo Beta, a 1x robot The use of technologies that were born in other products is not new in the technology industry. Optimus de Tesla, for example, is based on a variety of advances derived from the autonomous driving technology of the firm’s cars.
