Every step a humanoid robot takes depends on one critical component: The actuator. Actuators function as a robot's joints, enabling the precision, flexibility, and agility needed for human-like movement. As humanoid robotics scales, they are becoming one of the industry's most important technologies. $KOID provides exposure to several companies... show more

Schaeffler is bringing UK's humanoid robots from concept to factory reality. Within the next 5 years, hundreds of humanoid robots will be deployed in Schaeffler's global factories, with beta versions first implemented in 2026–2027. Schaeffler is also becoming the preferred supplier of joint actuators for the humanoid wheeled platform and is jointly exploring next-generation actuator architectures with its partner. More importantly, the two companies will collaborate deeply on data and skills: continuously accumulating real-world manufacturing data through teleoperation, synthetic data, and peripheral data acquisition robots to train AI models, enabling humanoid robots to learn faster and perform more reliably in the factory.

Actuators eat up 30-50% of a humanoid robot's BOM cost. Mass adoption? Not at these prices. This is one of the most persistent challenges in robotics, but IMSystems may have cracked the code with a novel drive. To understand it, we need to dive into the world of drives & transmission, with all their demands and trade-offs. Shoutout to Marwa ElDiwiny and Humanoid Scott for the original video.

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.

🇺🇸BREAKING: California orders robotics startup REK to stop all “Unsanctioned Human vs. Humanoid Robot Cage Fights." REK’s humanoid fighting league received a cease-and-desist order following its recent human vs. robot bout, per REK CEO. The action could mark one of the first state regulatory interventions targeting humanoid robot fighting.

Every humanoid joint you've seen is three motors stacked on top of each other, each one carrying the weight of the last. The Robotics Stack sat down with Bryce Cianciotto Bryce Cianciotto, who built the Orbit Actuator that does all three axes with the motors at the base, and the wires routed through the middle. New episode 👇

Hands are as important as the brain. From Shenzhen, Stella Robot has unveiled the PANTHEON HAND 22:a new generation of bionic dexterous hand that combines 22 degrees of freedom with remarkable strength and finesse. It’s a hand that truly understands precision. It can lift 30 kilograms, yet is delicate enough to thread a needle.Each finger can bear 1.5 kilograms, and the entire hand can gently hold a piece of tofu or sense the subtle expansion of a balloon. Powered by a tendon-driven mechanism with integrated actuators inside the forearm, it achieves compact design and natural, human-like movement. From precision assembly and component handling to material transport and human-robot collaboration,the PANTHEON HAND 22 shows what it means for humanoid robots to truly work with their hands.

⚠️ ONE HUMANOID ROBOT IS IMPRESSIVE. WATCHING AN ENTIRE FLEET MOVE AS ONE IS A DIFFERENT LEVEL. Dozens of humanoid robots are performing the same sequence simultaneously, matching their timing across the entire formation. Every step, arm movement and change of position has to stay coordinated while each machine independently maintains its balance. One robot can hide a mistake - a whole formation can't. The choreography is almost beside the point. What you're really seeing is the ability to reproduce complex physical movements consistently across a large number of machines, without the formation falling apart. That kind of repeatability becomes far more important once robots move from controlled demonstrations into real industrial environments. And that's where the real breakthrough could be. The future of humanoid robotics won't be measured only by what one machine can do, but by how reliably an entire fleet can do it. One capable robot is a technological achievement; coordinating many of them turns that capability into a system. One robot proves the technology. A fleet shows what happens when it scales.

BREAKING: Elon Musk says the Market for Humanoid robots like the Tesla Optimus Robot will be 1 Billion units per year, and Tesla can make $1 Trillion a year selling them. He predicts that they will ultimately sell for around $20,000 at a cost of $10,000, and Tesla will take at least a 10% market share of the humanoid robot market. Pretty impressive and the world is about to change. Musk believes that there will be at least 1 robot per human and perhaps much more than that.
