More and more humanoid robot kiosks are appearing in China. Yesterday, I passed by a subway entrance in Guangzhou and experienced a retail kiosk operated by a humanoid robot again, buying a bottle of water. The process was the same: select items on a screen, scan a QR code for mobile payment, and the humanoid robot retrieves the product. (However, it didn't interact with me at all.) I looked it up, and the wheeled humanoid robot is named S1, from AutoLife Robotics in Shenzhen. It uses omnidirectional wheels for movement and a lifting body. It's 1-1.6m tall, weighs 72kg, and has a 10-hour battery life. A single arm can carry 3-5kg. Furthermore, this humanoid robot is suitable for lightweight tasks in retail, convenience stores, supermarkets, and warehouse sorting.

Another giant humanoid robot is already performing high-altitude, high-risk tasks. Last August, West Japan Railway Company deployed it for railway maintenance, assisting humans with tasks such as pruning tree branches, inspecting power lines, and painting along the railway lines. Its emergence and application are changing traditional railway maintenance work. It was developed in 2022 in collaboration between robotics technology developer Jinki Ittai Co. and IT and electrical infrastructure company Nippon Signal Co. With a sci-fi anime-like appearance, it is enormous yet flexible, and its end effectors are replaceable. As you can see in the video, it is remotely controlled by a human operator in a cockpit, wearing a VR headset to precisely control the robot's movements. When the VR headset is paired with a special controller, the operator can apply force, causing the giant robot to move its joints through its arms to perform tasks.

Catching up with China and the US, LG's humanoid robot, KAPEX, was developed jointly with the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST). It is powered by LG's Exaone visual language model, high-end Korean actuators, and a multi-tactile dexterous hand. The humanoid robot is scheduled to be released in November of this year. LG announced its entry into the home humanoid robot market at CES 2025, but first unveiled an AI robot codenamed Q9 as a base model.

A cute humanoid robot from NYC Fauna Robotics has released a humanoid robot called Sprout, which is approximately 1 meter tall, lightweight, quiet, and features no dangerous edges and soft skin. Its appearance and interactions are designed to be "approachable," like a social companion. It is currently offered as a general-purpose robotics platform for developers, providing basic movement, perception, navigation, and expression capabilities, allowing real-world use cases to emerge within the community. Many humanoid robots are born in factories and warehouses, but Fauna Robotics aims to bring humanoid robots back into human living spaces. Fauna believes that if humanoid robots are to become as ubiquitous as computers and mobile phones in the future, the starting point must be a safe, friendly form suitable for homes, schools, and offices. Sprout is their first step in this direction.

NAVIAI-I3, a more robust humanoid robot, was launched by the Zhejiang Humanoid Robotics Innovation Center. Standing 1.8 meters tall, it can run like a human and walk on various terrains. This humanoid robot appears to be primarily designed for specialized industrial tasks, such as security patrols in underground parking lots. They previously launched the lightweight bipedal NVAI-2 and a wheeled humanoid robot. The bipedal robot is used in manufacturing operations, while the wheeled humanoid robot is used for unstructured, flexible tasks such as warehouse sorting, supermarket shelving, and office cleaning. We filmed this demonstration at the World Robot Conference; you can see it in the comments section.
