ALERT: Humanoid robots performed the first-ever live surgery on pigs during a preclinical trial at a California university. Engineers and a team of surgeons at the University of California, San Diego successfully used teleoperated humanoid robots for live surgery. In one of the surgeries, the group, along with the humanoid robot, successfully removed a pig's gallbladder. In another case, 2 robots worked side by side to perform the same gallbladder removal. Michael Yip, a faculty member at UC San Diego Jacobs School of Engineering, says, “This can help address the healthcare crisis not only in the United States, but also worldwide.” “This study shows that humanoid robots have a viable future in the field of surgery. You can imagine these robots being deployed in remote communities where staffing is challenging, or in austere environments like search and rescue scenarios where a massive deployment of field medicine is needed in a short period of time.”

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 →

Humans are cooked. 😳 China just hosted the world's first robot-led gala show, 60 minutes of humanoid robots performing live on stage. Not a tech demo. Not a 30-second clip from a lab. A full entertainment show during the Chinese Spring Festival with 12 performances including dance, magic, comedy, martial arts, and a fashion runway. The robots did backflips. Let me say that again. The robots. Did. Backflips. AGIBOT G2 humanoid robots and D1 quadruped robots performed in perfectly synchronized formations…. rapid turns, group choreography, runway walks.. transitioning seamlessly between segments for a full hour. But here's what actually blew my mind: In one segment, human dancers performed alongside the robots in coordinated routines. Real-time alignment between human movement and robotic motion. You couldn't tell who was leading. In another, quadruped robots dressed as pandas danced with children on stage. And in the corner? A sign-language translation robot was providing barrier-free access for hearing-impaired viewers. This wasn't entertainment. This was a statement. Some context most people are missing: AGIBOT shipped over 5,000 humanoid robots in 2025. They're ranked #1 globally in humanoid robot shipments. The company was founded by a former Huawei "Genius Youth" engineer just 3 years ago. Three. Years. Meanwhile, Boston Dynamics has been at it for 32 years and still doesn't have a consumer product on the market. China isn't just catching up in robotics. They're lapping us while doing backflips. And the craziest part? You can now rent these same robots for events through their platform, starting at 999 yuan. That's about $140. The future isn't coming. It's performing on stage, doing backflips, and it costs less than your Costco run. AGIBOT #AGIBOT NIGHT #RobotsHumanoides #ArtesMarcialesChinas

Elon Musk envisions a future where everyone gets access to the world's best surgeons—because Tesla's Optimus robots will deliver superhuman precision for any medical procedure, even ones too complex for humans. "Imagine a world where everyone has access to the best surgeons, literally everyone... Optimus will have the level of precision that is frankly superhuman... and that will be available to anyone." Money can't scale top doctors—they're rare. But robots? Built in factories at scale. From scarcity to abundance: Could humanoid robots truly end healthcare inequality? Would you trust an Optimus robot for surgery if it outperformed humans? Or is the human touch irreplaceable? What's your take on this bold vision? Drop thoughts below.

Robots moving railcars! 🚃 Did you know that KUKA is also in the mobile robots business? Yes, you heard that right. And not just any robots. Robots that carry up to 56 tons! 🏋🏼 The railcar production process is highly complex, particularly when moving massive cars sideways within a plant. This challenge has been addressed at the Siemens facility in Germany using the OmniMove system from KUKA. The system allows for precise positioning, enabling the units to lift, move, and lower railcars with remarkable accuracy. With Mecanum wheels, the OmniMove units can move seamlessly in any direction, making the process incredibly efficient. Together, these units are capable of lifting up to 56 tons, streamlining heavy railcar production. This one is clearly tele-operated, but just looking at it makes me feel safer when I see a human in the loop. What a great use case for mobile robots! 😮‍💨 ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

Could humanoid robots replace people on the battlefield? Compared with risking human lives — and with all the political backlash and risks of stress-induced war crimes and trauma — humanoid soldiers offer a more resilient, restrained, and precise alternative. Robots do not suffer from fatigue or fear and can operate continuously in extreme conditions while immune from radiation, chemicals, or biological agents. But the counterargument is chilling: humanoid soldiers have lower political and ethical barriers to initiating conflict, blur responsibility for any abuses, and further dehumanize warfare. In the latest episode of AI, Explained by Humans, TIME editor-at-large Charlie Campbell visited a company making these robots to see the war technology they're selling to governments around the world and interviewed experts on the potential implications.

Billionaire investor Mark Cuban predicts humanoid robots will "fail miserably" within a decade: While most of the industry is racing to build robots shaped like humans, Mark Cuban thinks the entire premise is wrong. "I think everybody's making this push for humanoid robots. I think they might have a five-year lifespan and then they'll fail miserably. Maybe 10." His prediction covers more than just the machines. Asked whether he's referring to the companies or the devices, he answers: "Both. Both." His reasoning challenges the industry's core assumption: "Everybody defaults to well, we live in a human world and humanoids will take the place of humans for various functions particularly in the home. And I think there's just no chance." The evidence? Look at the places where automation already works at massive scale: "If you look at warehouses and what Amazon does, they're not humanoid robots carrying boxes. They're robots that are designed to fit the environment." But what about homes? Cuban has heard the counterargument that "a house is a house. You need a humanoid," and he rejects it entirely: "I think houses are going to be redesigned completely so that whatever the optimal robot is that allows it to simplify the house, that's where houses will go." Mark Cuban imagines robots shaped more like spiders or ants, working in houses where the pantry, refrigerator, and washing machines are hidden behind the garage. "That way you could redesign it so all the living space was for people because you know that the robots aren't going to be full form humanoids. They're going to be whatever the optimal shape is." His conclusion captures the whole thesis in one line: "You design the house to fit the robot and you design the robot to fit the house."

🚨 Apple joins the robotics race! Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and Apple have developed a robot collision avoidance system. They called it ARMOR and they implemented it on the Fourier GR-1 robot. What is ARMOR? 👘 ARMOR is a system that helps humanoid robots "see" their surroundings better by using small, smart depth sensors placed on their arms. It solves the problem of blind spots and occlusions in traditional robot perception, making robots much safer and more efficient. It uses Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensors to detect obstacles, providing a near-complete view of the robot’s environment. 🔭 A smart software powered by transformer-based AI learns from human movements to help robots plan their actions dynamically. ARMOR reduces collisions by an impressive 63.7%, making robots significantly better at navigating crowded or complex spaces. The system is fast as well! 💨 ARMOR-Policy cuts computational time by 26× compared to traditional planning methods, ensuring robots can act quickly. P.S. Thoughts on this? The research paper is in the comments! ~~~ ♻️ RT to help 1 robot find a new workplace.

Here is a human assembling a BMW engine by hand. Hundreds of components. Micron tolerances. Dozens of hours. So what's better here—a human or a robot❓ 🤖 Robots win at: - Repeatability. Same torque, same angle, every time. - Speed on defined tasks. Honda automates piston installation at 9,000/day. - No fatigue. Shift 47 is identical to shift 1. 👨‍🏭 Humans win at: - Feeling what they can't see. Half of engine assembly is blind. - Force intuition. Knowing "seated" from "about to crack." - Compliant manipulation. That instinctive wiggle to get a part to drop in. - Handling variance. Mercedes pulled robots off the S-Class line because they couldn't adapt to option variability. - Deformables. Wiring harnesses, gaskets, hoses—nothing predictable. - Recovery. When something's wrong, humans adapt. Robots halt. ✅ Right now, the answer is both. Robots handle the repetitive subassemblies. Humans handle everything that requires judgment, feeling, and adaptation. The day a humanoid can do this end-to-end is the day manipulation is solved.

Japan Airlines has unveiled a humanoid robot trial at Tokyo’s Haneda Airport to test baggage handling and aircraft cabin cleaning to address Japan’s growing labor shortages caused by an aging population, shrinking workforce, and booming tourism demand. Starting next month, they will conduct mid-to-long-term phased verifications with these Unitree robots. Initially, operations at airport sites will be visualized and analyzed to identify areas where humanoid robots can operate safely. After that, repeated operational verifications simulating actual airport environments will be conducted, with the ultimate goal of establishing a sustainable operational structure through labor savings and reducing workload by having humanoid robots complement human tasks. The trial will last about two years. What a time to be alive that we are now seeing humanoid robot trials like this. Buckle up y'all, humanoid robots are going to start doing a lot of things us humans used to do.

Humanoid Robots Get a Soul: Inside AheadForm's Empathy Engine Newcomer AheadForm just secured two funding rounds in three months, highlighting strong investor confidence in their unique approach to humanoid robots. Founded by a Columbia University Ph.D. Hu Yuhang, the company is betting that the key to mainstream adoption isn't just function, but empathy. They’ve built their tech on three core pillars: ► Autonomous Learning: Robots can learn and adapt on their own through "mirror self-perception" and self-modeling. ► Emotional Foundation Model: A model that processes multimodal data to give robots the ability to understand and respond with natural empathy. ► Bionic Face Hardware: A self-developed, highly realistic face designed to cross the "uncanny valley" and spark genuine human connection. Their core product, the Emo robot, is a bionic platform with real-time expression feedback. AheadForm believes this "Humanoid Empathy Value" is the key to commercial success, starting with applications in brand stores and theme parks. Internal testing is set to begin later this year. They also just announced a new humanoid model, the "Elf·Xuan," a new milestone for their "Elf Project," which began in 2024 to turn virtual inspiration into a physical bionic robot.

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.
