Every mobile robot has the same problem. The arms are too heavy. Too weak. Too dumb… You bolt on a robot designed for a factory floor and wonder why your AMR’s battery dies in 2 hours. The payload-to-weight ratio kills you. The arm weighs 20kg and lifts 5. Mobile...

A lightweight arm doing heavier work than you would expect. This one weighs 9.2 kg and can lift up to 12 kg. That already tells you a lot about the mechanical design and power density. A few details that stood out to me: • Controlled via a PlayStation joystick, simple and practical • Designed to operate in rain and dust • Clearly aimed at mobile robots and outdoor use, not just clean factory floors This kind of arm makes sense when space, weight, and deployment flexibility matter more than raw reach or speed. Not flashy. Just very usable. Credit to Duatic for the build. —- Weekly robotics and AI insights. Subscribe free:

A humanoid robot playing a Yamaha drum kit is one of the cleanest ways to test rhythm control in public. Drumming exposes timing, wrist motion, impact force, arm recovery, and coordination between both hands. Even if the routine is pre-programmed or assisted, the useful part is visible: the robot has to strike, reset, and stay in rhythm without turning into random arm movement. Robot musicians may look funny today. They are quietly testing the same control problems needed for household robots, factory arms, and physical AI systems that work around humans. Would you call this entertainment, robotics research, or the early market for robot performers?

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.

Picking up laundry with a 3D printed robot arm and LeRobot. It operates using SO-ARM101 arm mounted on a mobile base, relying on just a wrist and base camera. The base is controlled with an Xbox controller by a human operator. The arm is fully autonomous thanks to the ACT model. The robot can generalize to previously unseen environments. The technical stack: - Model: Action Chunking Transformer (ACT) with Temporal Ensemble - Data: Learned via teleoperation including negative examples and failure recoveries - Framework: Built and trained locally using LeRobot on a single consumer GPU in 3.5h This is a perfect example that real-world robotics isn't about perfect lab conditions - it's about messy living rooms, confusing shadows, and learning to recover from mistakes. And with open tools, anyone can tackle these edge cases right from their desk.

Most robotics teams can make a robot move… very few can make it work every day in the real world! @roboforce_inc was just featured in Jensen Huang’s GTC keynote, not for a demo but for a robot they claim is already working in the field. Their system, TITAN, is built for industrial environments: ✅ 40 kg dual-arm payload ✅ millimeter-level precision ✅ 8 hours runtime ✅ early pilots in energy, logistics, and manufacturing They call it Physical AI: The focus is on getting robots to do the kind of labor that still depends on people: repetitive, risky, and physical. IMO, what stands out isn’t the specs. It’s the claim of 11,000 robot orders❗️ If even a fraction of that turns into real deployments, it would make RoboForce one of the most widely scaled robot platforms in the world!!?? The open question is whether this shift from prototype to production is real or just the next phase of robotics storytelling. It looks very promising to me. It’s also interesting how their founder openly pushes back against the humanoid trend, arguing for wheels over legs in real industrial settings. It’s an unusual perspective in a time when humanoids get most of the attention. If they are right, the next humanoid robotics wave might look less like a human and more like an industrial version.

The world's smallest industrial robot arm Built for sub-micrometer precision. Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at how to control what is likely the world’s smallest and most precise industrial robot arm using custom software. The stack includes online and offline programming with simulation, an analytical kinematics solver, a singularity-aware trajectory planner, and an API layer for integration with external systems. It’s designed for applications where positioning error is measured in micrometers, not millimeters. Microelectronics, semiconductor handling, photonics alignment, medical device assembly, lab automation. When parts are tiny and tolerances are unforgiving, the control architecture matters as much as the mechanics. This is from Oleksander Stepanenko (Oleksandr Stepanenko), if you don’t follow him and his YouTube channel… no one can help you. ——- Weekly robotics and AI insights. Subscribe free:

Learn the differences between motion profiles! 💨 A real demonstration of engineering skills. In each robotic arm, in each legged robot, you will discover actuators that make the robot move! Let's compare two motion profiles: rectangular and trapezoid. - A rectangular motion profile is like a car with abrupt starts and stops, ideal for situations where speed is crucial. 🚙 - A trapezoid motion profile involves gradual acceleration and deceleration, offering a smoother ride, perfect for scenarios where precision and smoothness are essential, just like handling a pint of beer with care (I love your way of showing the difference! 🍻) P.S. Can you name different applications for these two motion profiles in robotics? ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

Open-source robot arm meets hand tracking [📍GitHub below] It is designed with an industrial mindset but built as a 3D-printed desktop system. PAROL6 paired with a LEAP Motion controller is a nice example of how accessible robot teleoperation has become. • Hand motion is streamed to the robot at 100 Hz via UDP • A pneumatic gripper is controlled by simple fist open and close gestures • The entire robot stack is open source, from mechanics to control software Combine that with low-latency hand tracking and you get a very practical platform for learning manipulation, teleoperation, and human-robot interfaces. This kind of setup is great for experimentation, teleop, data collection, and teaching robots by demonstration All without proprietary hardware or locked software.

Unloading trucks with robots! 📦 Bastian Solutions has developed a mobile robot system that automates high-volume, floor-level unloading of trailers. Let's have a closer look at how it actually works! The robot seamlessly drives itself in and out of trailers and docks without any fixed infrastructure. This system picks up cases via an extendable conveyor, lifts them using a retractable mast, and accurately places them inside the trailer using a dedicated gripper. In the video you can see the reversed process, unloading of a truck. 🚛 It's guided by LiDAR-based navigation and an omnidirectional base, enabling fast, precise, and infrastructure-free operation. Integrates smoothly with existing systems like conveyors, scanners, sorters, and depalletizers. Every time I see a robot loading and unloading a truck, I'm like: we are getting there :) ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

Robots from Humanoid passed real factory test at Siemens! 😮‍💨 Humanoid from the UK just completed a successful proof of concept with Siemens, deploying their HMND 01 wheeled humanoid robot in a real working factory. The task was simple but important: pick totes from a storage stack, transport them to a conveyor, and place them at the pickup point for human operators. Repeat until the stack is empty. The robot achieved 60 tote moves per hour, handled two different tote sizes, ran autonomously for more than 30 minutes at a time, stayed operational for over eight hours, and maintained over 90% success rate on pick and place tasks. This matters because it's not a demo video. It's a real deployment in Siemens' Electronics Factory in Erlangen, handling actual production work, measured against real operational metrics. The test ran in two phases. First, Humanoid built a physical twin in-house to test and optimize the system. Then they deployed on-site at Siemens for two weeks, where the robot operated in the real production environment. We can see a wheeled humanoid robot in action! So, now the ultimate question: wheels or legs? 👀 ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

An ultra compact, high precision industrial robot arm. This one stood out to me because it targets a part of automation that is usually glossed over. Extreme precision in very small spaces. According to Oleksandr Stepanenko, the arm is designed from the ground up with fully custom electronics, software, and calibration, paired with industrial components from Harmonic Drive and maxon. Reported specs are notable: • Repeatability better than 0.001 mm • Payload 250 g • Reach 250 mm • Total mass 1.5 kg This kind of form factor opens up use cases that traditional industrial arms struggle with. Think PCB assembly, micro soldering, precision pick and place of irregular parts, and medical or micro robotics components. ❗️What I find interesting is not just the numbers, but the direction… Smaller, lighter, highly precise systems could unlock automation in environments where space, inertia, and tolerance are the real constraints.

As someone who spends a lot of time on the shop floor talking to manufacturing engineers and plant managers, constantly hunting for real pain points and evaluating the right automation use cases for my robotic startup clients, I see this very clearly: In the brutal environment of forging (extreme heat, heavy parts, and high-force operations) specialized industrial robots are not just the better choice.

🚨BREAKING: A new humanoid robot straight out of Europe! Kinisi has introduced their humanoid robot called KR1. This robot has a base with wheels instead of legs. This provides much greater stability and safety for human workers. It’s built for warehouse and factory tasks like picking, stacking, and moving goods. It supports payloads up to 15 kg, runs 8 hours per charge with hot-swappable batteries, and docks itself for recharging. The robot can lift heavy boxes from high shelves, handle fragile items without damage, and adapt its arm trajectories on the fly to avoid obstacles. In demos, it moved smoothly between shelves, placed items into totes, and transported them across the warehouse, all autonomously. Great retrofitting potential, because it doesn’t require major infrastructure changes to deploy. It learns from simple demonstrations, operates offline for reliability and privacy, and integrates quickly into existing workflows. Let’s not forget that E-commerce is growing rapidly, with global online sales expected to reach nearly $7 trillion by 2025. As more people shop online, the number of packages being shipped each day is soaring. These robots help us to make sure they will be delivered on time! 📦
