Sellafield has trialed Boston Dynamics’ Spot robot for radiation monitoring, using a RAICo-designed tool to swab hazardous areas. This innovation aims to remove personnel from danger, accelerating safer nuclear decommissioning through advanced robotics.
Setting the record for the longest journey walked by a humanoid robot, Agibot A2 secured a spot in the history
Bedrock Robotics Inc. announced on Wednesday that it has raised $270 million in Series B funding, bringing its total funding
DEWALT, in collaboration with August Robotics, has unveiled a fleet-capable autonomous drilling robot designed to accelerate data center builds. The Maryland-based
In a world first, Chinese PLA General Hospital researchers led by Dr. Zhang Xu have proven in a BMJ-published trial that robot telesurgery over 2,800km is as safe and effective as local surgery, revolutionizing access to cancer care.
New York-based Fauna Robotics has launched Sprout, a 22.7 kg humanoid development platform designed for safety and emotional engagement. Founders Rob Cochran and Josh Merel aim to democratize robotics, providing tools for building applications in education, therapy, and AI research right out of the box.
Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences have discovered 5,100-year-old dams using digital archaeology, proving ancient Chinese communities managed water cooperatively. This finding by researcher Liu Jianguo directly counters the long-standing Western theory of “Oriental despotism,” showing large-scale projects preceded centralized power.
In a world-first, Beijing’s X-Humanoid connected its ‘Embodied Tien Kung’ robot directly to a GalaxySpace low-earth-orbit satellite. The robot autonomously completed a retrieval and delivery mission, transmitting 720P visual data in real time without any ground network, pioneering a new era for remote robotic operations.
Shanghai’s EYOU Robot Technology Co. has launched the world’s first automated production line for robotic joints, with a 100,000-unit annual capacity. This solves the critical consistency and cost problem, enabling the mass production of humanoid robots for global markets.
1X Technologies has unveiled a “World Model” AI for its NEO humanoid robot, enabling it to learn new tasks like ironing or hair brushing by watching videos. The $20,000 robot can now translate simple prompts into autonomous actions using visual planning.
