Collaborating like an ant colony Blue Worm Robotics from Xi'an has released a wheeled humanoid robot solution for warehouse automation. The wheeled humanoid robots move freely and quickly among warehouse shelves and workstations, using their lifting bodies to move, transfer, and sort goods. The robots collaborate with each other, and multiple robots can even work together to assemble another robot. As the collaborative tasks become more complex, swarm intelligence will emerge.

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.

Humanoid robots are being born in China every day. Blue Worm Robotics, a startup from Xi’an, has officially unveiled its first humanoid robot. It moves on omnidirectional wheels, features a lifting torso, and has a look that’s almost like a Transformer. It runs in a hybrid mode of human teleoperation plus AI autonomy, and with its gripper design, it shows strong potential for use in electronics manufacturing and warehouse logistics. It made its debut at this year's World Humanoid Robotics Games in Beijing, winning third place in the warehouse sorting category.
