A new humanoid robot named Sprout, developed by Fauna Robotics, is making its debut. Unlike sleek and powerful-looking machines from companies like Tesla, Sprout is designed to be approachable and friendly.

In the Q4 earnings call for Tesla, Elon Musk said the Fremont factory would stop production of Model S and X vehicles, and instead, it will pivot to producing Optimus robots.

Ai-Da Robot became the first humanoid robot to design a building with a modular Space Pod concept for Moon and Mars bases, featured at the Utzon Center in Denmark.

The Fremont factory will still manufacture Model 3 and Y, but the space where Model S and X are made will instead focus on mass production of Tesla's Gen 3 Optimus robots.

In a striking display of agility and grace, a humanoid robot named "Adam-U Ultra" has danced its way through a complex, highly energetic routine without faltering, slipping or missing a beat.

Hyundai Motor has reportedly begun testing humanoid robots at its automobile manufacturing facilities in

With stats like that, one can’t help but suspect that the first country to have a million humanoids will be China.

Sprout, a 3 1/2-foot-tall humanoid from Fauna Robotics, debuts with a soft foam body, expressive moves and a friendly vibe.

Airbus ordered UBTech’s Walker S2, a full-size humanoid that stands 176 cm tall (5’9"), weighs 70 kg (154 lbs), and walks at about two meters/second (4.5 mph). It has dextrous hands with 11 degrees of freedom and tactile sensors, and can hold 7.5 kg (16.5 lbs) in each hand and 1 kg (2.2 lbs) with each finger.

The Columbia University researchers achieved the feat by allowing their robot, EMO, to study itself in a mirror. It learned how its flexible face and silicone lips would move in response to the precise actions of its 26 facial motors, each capable of moving in up to 10 degrees of freedom.

Space in the EV-maker’s Fremont factory will be used to produce one million Optimus 3 robots annually, Musk says.
