Inside this edition

Our Minerva interview. Ahead of the company's launch, we spoke with Felber about keeping human specialists in control while a humanoid takes on the physical risk. We get into the practical decisions behind Roger—and the capabilities still being developed.

The hardware decisions that matter. Why did Boston Dynamics give Atlas four fingers? And what do buyers get at Galbot ET1's different price points? We look beyond the headline announcements.

A closer look at robot work. Dyna's laundry workflow and Nucleus's factory footage offer longer demonstrations to examine. We also share Nucleus founder Melvin Schwarz's answer to our question about how much of its demo was autonomous.

There are updates on Meta, Tesla, AGIBOT and more, plus a farewell film featuring Figure 02, Arnold Schwarzenegger and a Finnish furnace.
