The electronics giant plans to use humanoids running NVIDIAs GR00T foundation model on its production lines, marking a significant test for the "simulation-first" approach to robotics.

The 1X NEO launch sparked debate over its use of teleoperation. But for 1X, this 'Expert Mode' isn't a bug—it's the core of a long-held strategy built on a foundation of passive safety and data diversity.

The $20,000 NEO humanoid robot pre-order has drawn massive online attention, but it has also polarized the tech community, pitting proponents of its transparent, human-in-the-loop strategy against critics—including rival CEOs—who label it an unfinished ''hype reel''.

UK startup Humanoid and industrial giant Schaeffler have successfully completed a proof-of-concept for bin picking. The trial used a pre-alpha robot and will now move to a second phase with the new HMND 01 Alpha platform.

Speaking at an NVIDIA GTC panel, Figure CEO Brett Adcock dismissed teleoperation as "soy stuff" and claimed the real race is for general-purpose AI, not manufacturing, in the US vs. China competition.
