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.

Dexterous hands are one of the biggest challenges in robotics, with even Elon Musk noting their development accounts for half of a humanoid robot's total work. A new approach from the Y-Hand M1 bionic hand may be a significant step forward. Based on an international first-of-its-kind "bionic tension-compression theory," the M1 replaces traditional rigid hinges with a 6-DoF joint system and uses self-developed magnetic artificial muscles. This design allows it to perform complex, human-like tasks, including: ► Mastering all 33 Feix dexterous grasp categories. ► Precisely twirling playing cards and threading a needle with subtle human-like adjustments. ► Smoothly twisting bottle caps and turning book pages. The team behind the M1 is already working on the next-gen Y-Hand M3, aiming for around 70 degrees of freedom, believing that robotic hands may soon reach or even exceed human-level dexterity.

Can a dexterous hand still function after being run over by a 2-ton car? The dexterous hand is the most expensive component of a humanoid robot, and if it breaks, the task is interrupted. Hangzhou BrainCo conducted a rigorous test on its latest dexterous hand, Revo2: it was run over by a nearly 2-ton Volvo car, dropped from a height of 5m, dropped 30m, and subjected to forceful impacts from a Unitree G1 robot. It still managed to maintain a stable grip and continue operating. Revo2 is BrainCo's next-generation dexterous/bionic hand, released last year. yes, a human-robot hybrid hand. It's very light, only 383g, 20kg payload,capable of precision manipulation down to 0.1mm (such as threading a needle), and possesses multi-dimensional tactile perception (hardness, texture, direction, proximity, etc.). This test also demonstrates that after achieving breakthroughs in performance, a dexterous hand also needs to be extremely durable and able to function under extreme environmental pressures.

🦿Xpeng showed a humanoid robot called IRON whose movement looked so human that the team literally cut it open on stage to prove it is a machine. IRON uses a bionic body with a flexible spine, synthetic muscles, and soft skin so joints and torso can twist smoothly like a person. The system has 82 degrees of freedom in total with 22 in each hand for fine finger control. Compute runs on 3 custom AI chips rated at 2,250 TOPS (Tera Operations Per Second), which is far above typical laptop neural accelerators, so it can handle vision and motion planning on the robot. The AI stack focuses on turning camera input directly into body movement without routing through text, which reduces lag and makes the gait look natural. Xpeng staged the cut-open demo at AI Day in Guangzhou this week, addressing rumors that a performer was inside by exposing internal actuators, wiring, and cooling. Company materials also mention a large physical-world model and a multi-brain control setup for dialogue, perception, and locomotion, hinting at a path from stage demos to service work. Production is targeted for 2026, so near-term tasks will be limited, but the hardware shows a serious step toward human-scale manipulation.

Brain-controlled exoskeletons to train humanoid robots! 🧠 Fourier just presented human tele-operators using brain control interfaces and exoskeletal arms to train humanoid robots on home tasks. The brain control interface is the interesting part. Instead of using a controller or joystick to teleoperate, the operator's movements and intentions are captured more naturally through the exoskeleton and BCI. This means the demonstrations are more fluid, more human-like, and better suited for training robots to perform delicate home tasks. Multiple tele-operators are simultaneously generating training data across multiple robots. This is how you build the dataset needed for eventual full autonomy, without waiting years for it to arrive. This might be the bridge between "robots that work in controlled environments" and "robots that work in homes." Not full autonomy right away, but trusted human intelligence operating through a robot body, getting better with every task completed. ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

Brett Adcock, Figure CEO joined our 8 hour(!) live stream where a bunch of us were bird dogging and discussing Figure’s own 8 hour livestream showing a F.03 bot doing a logistics task completely autonomously including shift changes between bots. Here’s my summary of Brett’s remarks. The attached video is just the segment with Brett. We were first introduced to F.03 8 months ago, but Figure has been hard at work on their next version, F.04 which has just completed design lock, so expect to see that new bot sometimes this fall. F.04 was co-designed with the latest Figure AI stack called Helix and was built specifically for data. Brett didn’t explain what that meant, but I suspect it means the bot has many more sensors to enable better training and transfer learning. F.04 will be the biggest leap in performance they’ve had between versions so far which is saying something. Brett is a huge proponent of cross training the bots with many different tasks such that seeming unrelated tasks makes all learned tasks better. He gave an example of the fridge loading training which was topping out at 60% reliability until they trained the same model with kitchen shelving tasks, then they saw the fridge tasks jump to 90% accuracy. As such, they spend almost all their time in pre-training the unified Helix model to ensure they get cross training benefits. Figure will have almost completely localized Figure’s supply chain away from China by next quarter. They build almost everything in-house. Figure does not appear eager to get their bots into the workforce. Brett said they could, today, push thousands of bots into customer hands, and I believe him. But their goal is full general robotics where you can describe a brand new task to a robot, maybe do a one time demonstration, just like you would to a human showing them a new task, and then have the robot do the task. This is the holy grail of AI robotics, and Figure is laser focused on that mission. Brett initially said there was a possibility of achieving it this year, but then guided next couple of years, which I think is much more likely. Personally, I think they’ll need at least a new generation of NVIDIA inference chips to make that leap, and a lot more data gathering, training and hardware development. Brett said their goal with the hardware is “Apple” quality. Ie. Something as well designed and made as any Apple product. While the F.03 hand is clearly performant as shown in the 8 hour livestream, they are building a new hand for the F.04 bot which will be even closer to the full functionality of a human hand. Brett fully believes you need a humanoid hand as close as possible in capability to a human hand, if for no other reason that transfer learning from humans works a lot better when you can exactly mimic what a human does. If the bot can’t do something a human demonstrates, then you’ve just polluted your dataset. By now Figure has built more hands than bot versions (5-6 hands). One of the first hands they tried was a tendon driven hand, and without explaining why, Brett said that was a dead end. Their hands now have all actuators in the hand itself, and are clearly already robust. Brett said he just sat through a 100 page powerpoint design review of the latest hand - that’s how complicated it is. Brett’s other AI company, Hark Labs, has developed a conversational voice model which is installed now in the Figure bots roaming the office. Being able to converse back and forth with a Figure bot is now a thing and will get better over time. All in all, I came away from this segment even more bullish on Figure.

Who can say no to a humanoid robot that can actually feel a hug? 🤖 JQ Industries just built a fabric-based electronic skin for Unitree G1 — covering the torso, hands, and feet. This is not about appearance. It’s about giving robots real tactile sensing and pressure feedback. According to the company, the system includes tactile gloves, upper-body skin, and foot sensors. That means the robot can feel contact through its hands, detect pressure across its body, and use foot feedback to adjust balance. This is the missing layer in most humanoids. Vision alone can’t handle physical interaction. Robots need touch to grip safely, react to humans, and stay stable in real-world environments. JQ says its fiber sensors can detect forces as low as 0.01N, handle up to 3500kPa, and bend below 0.1mm radius. The system can also integrate with Isaac Sim, making tactile data usable for training and deployment. Unitree G1 is already built for manipulation and control — this adds the sensing layer it lacked. JQ says it’s now working with multiple humanoid companies, with some systems already shipping at scale. This is what happens when robots stop just seeing the world — and start physically feeling it.

This work makes a humanoid robot do simple parkour moves by looking with a depth camera and choosing the right move on the fly. The big deal is that it turns lots of small human moves into long, real-time robot behavior, without hand-coding every transition or retraining for each new course. A humanoid robot is usually good at steady walking, but it often fails when it has to do fast moves like jumping up, vaulting, or rolling, and then keep going to the next obstacle. The hard part is that you cannot easily collect training data for every possible obstacle shape, distance, and mistake, so robots end up learning a few moves that only work in a narrow setup. This work starts from short clips of real human parkour moves, like stepping over, vaulting, climbing, and rolling. It uses motion matching, which is basically a smart “pick the next clip that fits best right now” search, to stitch those short clips into a long, smooth plan that looks like a human doing a whole course. Then it trains a controller with reinforcement learning (RL), which means the robot learns by trial and error to copy that plan while staying balanced and not falling. After training separate expert controllers for different moves, it compresses them into 1 controller that uses only onboard depth sensing and a simple “go this fast in this direction” command. In real tests on a Unitree G1 humanoid, it can clear multiple obstacles in a row, adapt when obstacles get moved, and climb a wall up to 1.25m.

Awesome! This is literally a superhuman hand. 🤖✋ ChangingTek Robotics just dropped a dexterous hand that actually morphs between left and right hand configurations on the fly. It uses cable-driven tech to pull off shapes and reverse bends that human hands can't even dream of doing. The power is real too, with a 50N grip force and 10N at the fingertips while staying precise within 0.1N. It is kind of like a rigid octopus, meaning it is tough enough to crank a wrench or screwdriver but smooth enough to grab a drink. Having this much range of motion in a single hand basically doubles the efficiency of any robotic arm in tight spots.

NEWS: Humanoid robotics company Figure has released Helix 02, what they claim in their most capable humanoid model yet. "A single neural system that controls the full body directly from pixels, enabling dexterous, long horizon autonomy across an entire room: • Autonomous, long‑horizon loco-manipulation: Helix 02 unloads and reloads a dishwasher across a full-sized kitchen - a four-minute, end-to-end autonomous task that integrates walking, manipulation, and balance with no resets and no human intervention. We believe this is the longest horizon, most complex task completed autonomously by a humanoid robot to date. • All sensors in. All actuators out: Helix 02 connects every onboard sensor - vision, touch, and proprioception - directly to every actuator through a single unified visuomotor neural network. • Human-like whole body control from human data: All results are enabled by System 0, a learned whole‑body controller trained on over 1,000 hours of human motion data and sim‑to‑real reinforcement learning. System 0 replaces 109,504 lines of hand‑engineered C++ with a single neural prior for stable, natural motion. • New classes of dexterity: With Figure 03’s embedded tactile sensing and palm cameras, Helix 02 performs manipulation that was previously out of reach: extracting individual pills, dispensing precise syringe volumes, and singulating small, irregular objects from clutter despite self‑occlusion. Helix 02 is trained on over 1,000 hours of human motion data and integrates vision, touch, and proprioception."

$13,500 IS ENOUGH TO BUY A HUMANOID ROBOT. BUT THIS ONE IS DESIGNED TO WALK THROUGH A MALL LIKE A PERSON! Look at the details: human-like face, real clothing, a shopping bag in one hand, and a mechanical structure exposed at the waist. She steps onto an escalator in an ordinary public space. The striking part is not a backflip or a dance routine. It is how close this machine gets to an everyday human scene. For comparison, Unitree lists its G1 humanoid from $13,500, with 23–43 joint motors and about 2 hours of battery life. That is a real price for a different robot, not the confirmed cost of the machine in this video. The hard part is building a robot that can do more than move on command. It has to balance, coordinate its joints, navigate human-sized spaces and handle unpredictable surroundings. A controlled demo proves movement. A public environment exposes everything the engineers still need to solve. The humanoid future may not arrive as a metal machine from a sci-fi movie. It may arrive looking almost ordinary, until you notice the mechanics.

.Jason Ma on how Dyna-2 learned to untwist a real water bottle cap out of the box from just 13 minutes of dexterous hand data because the robot hand looks like a human's: "We got a new pair of dexterous hand. Most of our robots in the office have a gripper-like hand, so the gap between that versus human is actually quite large." "We thought, if we have a robot that has hands that look like human, wouldn't the transfer be greater? Right before the release, they were able to collect just 13 minutes of data." "They collected only 13 minutes of data and then post-trained the best Dyna model that trained on one million hours of data. The model is just able to, out of the box, start opening bottle caps on real water bottles." "This is very surprising because typically post-training a robot would take at least several hours of data. For a dexterous hand that's much more complex than a gripper, it would actually be much harder to train. But the experimental results we saw was the opposite. Perhaps because the hand looks more like the human, the transfer was easier." Dyna Robotics
