Neura-robotics

German industrial giant Schaeffler will not only deploy thousands of Neura''s 4NE-1 humanoids by 2035 but will also co-develop and supply key actuators for the robots, feeding real-world data into Neura''s ''Neuraverse'' AI ecosystem.

A recent LA Times report highlights the massive, low-tech effort to gather real-world data for robots. This data bottleneck is the central challenge in robotics, and top companies are making wildly different bets on how to solve it—from human-video capture and teleoperation to massive simulation.

Neura Robotics has announced the NEURA Gym, a large-scale physical training facility designed to generate real-world interaction data from hundreds of robots. The initiative aims to solve one of the biggest challenges in robotics: creating AI models that can reliably transfer skills from simulation to the complexities of the physical world.

German firm NEURA Robotics and Indian auto-tech giant Sona Comstar have signed an MoU to jointly develop and manufacture cognitive robots and humanoids, signaling a major push to industrialize advanced automation in India.

German humanoid robotics firm Neura Robotics has established a significant branch office in Hangzhou, China, with a registered capital of €45 million. The move, discovered via public corporate records, points to a strategic effort to tap into China's robust robotics supply chain to scale production of its 4NE-1 humanoid.
