Humanoid-robots

NEURA Robotics is poised to reveal the third generation of its 4NE-1 humanoid robot at Automatica 2025 in Munich, Germany. The highly anticipated launch is expected to showcase significant advancements in actuation, dexterity, sensory capabilities (including "robot skin"), and AI, moving the 4NE-1 closer to a market-ready, general-purpose machine capable of versatile applications in both industrial and domestic environments. CEO David Reger has stated his ambition for this new iteration to be the "best humanoid robot on the planet."

A day after unveiling its Redwood AI brain, robotics firm 1X has detailed the reinforcement learning system that powers the NEO humanoid’s movement. The unified controller enables a range of human-like motions, from walking and running to climbing stairs using only stereo vision.

Following days of speculation, robotics firm 1X has revealed Redwood, a new AI model for its NEO humanoid robots. The system runs fully onboard, integrates locomotion and manipulation into a single network, and is designed to learn from both successful and failed tasks in real-world home environments.
