Ati Robotics, an India-based startup, built robots with minimal Chinese parts in response to US regulatory bans on Chinese-made robots. Founder Saurabh Chandra discusses their supply chain strategy, cost advantages, and upcoming humanoid robot.
DeepMind introduces Gemini Robotics 2, a set of AI models (VLA, ER, On-Device) that enable robots to perform whole-body control, fine dexterity, and multi-robot collaboration, with local on-device execution and fast adaptation to new robot bodies.
Alexander Koch released the first open-source robot arm integrated with Hugging Face's LeRobot platform, and announced Tau's humanoid cleaning service in San Francisco at $30/hour.
Moby, a humanoid robot, demonstrates powerful whole-body control for handling dynamic payloads, marking significant progress over current humanoids.
A new personal robot called the T1, showcased at the AI for Good Summit in Geneva, can transform between a four-legged dog-like shape and a humanoid form, allowing it to navigate both smooth and rough terrain, climb steps, and follow users.
UMA_Robots unveils Northstar, a robot with a human-like body and hands, designed to be approachable and competent for workplaces and homes.
A tweet promotes an interactive website that breaks down humanoid robot hardware, costs, and supply chains, highlighting materials as the bottleneck.
SceneBot is a unified motion tracking framework that conditions a single humanoid policy on both reference motions and per-link contact labels, enabling free-space locomotion, terrain traversal, and whole-body manipulation in contact-rich environments.
LeRobot released the largest open-source humanoid teleoperation dataset, re-encoded into the LeRobot format for efficient streaming and reduced storage footprint.
This paper introduces DeepInsight, a unified evaluation infrastructure for Physical AI stacks that spans from foundation model decoding to whole-body control, preserving heterogeneity through three narrow abstractions to enable cross-layer diagnostics.
OASIS is a simulation-data-driven framework for humanoid loco-manipulation that uses 3D generative models and hierarchical visuomotor policies. It achieves better zero-shot performance than real-robot training by leveraging domain randomization in simulation.
This paper introduces LIMMT, a data-centric study showing that training with high-quality, minimal subsets of motion data (under 3% of AMASS) outperforms using the full dataset for physics-based humanoid motion tracking, defining motion data quality through physics feasibility, diversity, and complexity.
Humanoid-GPT is a GPT-style Transformer pre-trained on a billion-scale motion corpus, achieving zero-shot generalization for whole-body motion tracking across unseen motions and tasks.
