Boston Dynamics has released a new video of their next-generation humanoid robot, Atlas. "We are excited to share some of our progress on developing Large Behavior Models for Atlas. This work is part of a collaboration between AI research teams at Toyota Research Institute (TRI) and Boston Dynamics. We have been building end-to-end language-conditioned policies that enable Atlas to accomplish long-horizon manipulation tasks."

Boston Dynamics has demonstrated its new Atlas humanoid robot lifting and carrying a 50-pound fridge. The robot uses its whole body to balance and move the heavy object in a natural, human-like way. Before doing it in the real world, Atlas practiced the task for millions of hours in a virtual simulation.

China is crazy. 🤯 Forget a classical grippers, and welcome to era of humanoid acting as EOATs. Someone thinking about the gripper, actually said: you know what, let's just stick half a humanoid in there and that'll solve the problem. Humanoid torso from LimX Dynamics mounted on a 6-axis industrial robot arm wasn't on my 2026 bingo, but I'll take it. ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

The first-ever demo of paying a humanoid robot with $XRT. On January 8, anyone strolling down the main street of Las Vegas had the chance to meet the humanoid robot R.Turbo, shake its hand, and experience something we all dream of seeing in our cities: paying for a service, not to a person, but to a robot that looks remarkably human. Day two of #CES2025 has come to a close, and our humanoid is now recharging and undergoing maintenance ahead of tomorrow's stage performance. Stay tuned for updates! And for those in Las Vegas, join us at the evening event featuring Robonomics:

🎉🎉🎉Super excited to announce that we launched a joint lab of Embodied AI and Humanoid Robot between UniTree and BIGAI! I will direct the lab to foster the research in integrating the 3D scene understanding capability to Humanoid robot. Hope to see more generalist Humanoid robots in our home very soon😁

Shenzhen-based Kinetix AI has introduced a faceless humanoid robot called KAI. The robot is about 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighs 70 kilograms, and can carry loads up to 20 kilograms while running for around 4 hours on a single charge. With highly flexible hands and precise movements, KAI can fold clothes, handle delicate objects, and assist with everyday household tasks.

Humanoid Long Jump. The G1 humanoid from Unitree Robotics has completed a long jump of 1.4 meters - possibly the longest jump ever achieved by a humanoid robot of its size in the world, standing only 1.32 meters tall. The G1 has up to 43 joint motors and a dexterous three-fingered hand, designed for precise manipulation and AI research. Priced from $16,000, it features robust Sim2Real capabilities, making it a compelling choice for robotics developers.

🤖 Meet the UniX AI Panther: a humanoid robot designed to cook meals, prep food, and make your bed using advanced AI and robotic arms. We’ve officially reached the point where robots are moving into our homes to handle daily chores. The future is here but would you actually feel comfortable sleeping in the same house as one of these things?

ELON: TESLA IS THE WORLD’S BIGGEST ROBOT MAKER AND AI SAFETY LEADER "Tesla is arguably the world's biggest robot maker, because we have basically semi-autonomous cars that will ultimately be fully autonomous. And we are building a humanoid robot that will be basically like the car, but with legs. I kind of held open doing that for a while because I certainly don't want to hasten the AI apocalypse. But clearly, when you look at Boston Dynamics and these humanoid robots, they're going to happen with or without Tesla. So with Tesla, I've got a lot more ability to ensure robotics safety and AI, and I'll try my best to do that." Source: ELON CLIPS

I’m extremely bullish on the long-term potential of Tesla’s Optimus humanoid robot. • Over-the-air updates for Tesla Optimus will be game-changing, enabling the robot to learn countless new physical skills and abilities with each update. • Unlike non-physical AI, a humanoid robot can translate knowledge into practical, real-world actions, filling a huge gap in AI's usefulness. • The challenge lies in making the robot useful enough to justify its cost, but with the rapid advancements in AI, this seems increasingly achievable. • As the robot's capabilities skyrocket while its price remains stable, demand could grow exponentially.

A new member joins the European humanoid robot team. German company Agile Robotics has launched its first industrial humanoid robot, Agile One, featuring intuitive human-robot interaction, dexterous hands (for grasping small screws and touching the screen), and AI-driven operation trained in the real world. It performs tasks such as material collection, handling, picking and placing, loading and unloading machine tools, tool handling, and precision operations. The emergence of humanoid robots by industrial robot companies is a natural progression; they are designed for areas inaccessible to traditional robotic arms and industrial robots, extending operational systems and enhancing business collaboration capabilities. Agile One will be manufactured in Germany in early 2026 and deployed for on-site training at customers to enhance its AI model capabilities. Soon, Europe will enter its second wave of automation driven by intelligent technology.

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.

XPENG founder and CEO He Xiaopeng announced that they will release a new generation of humanoid robots next month, introducing a new AI system, VLT, combined with five other systems, including VLA/VLM. The goal is to transition humanoid robots from remote-controlled to fully autonomous. Their second-generation humanoid robot, Iron, released last year, is already undergoing trial operations at the XPENG factory in Guangzhou and serving as a shopping guide in the flagship store. It's worth noting that Tesla plans to release the Optimus V3 by the end of the year.
