Scott Walter

In an exclusive interview with Scott Walter, Sunday Robotics leadership reveals the "data-first" engineering philosophy that led to Memo, confirming the robot was designed around the training pipeline rather than the other way around.

From pioneering 3D robot simulation to analyzing Tesla’s Optimus today, Dr. Scott Walter has spent four decades mapping the intersection of virtual design and physical reality. We sat down with the "Humanoid Botangelist" to discuss the "Fermi paradox" of robotic hands, the safety myths of home robots, and why the industry is finally ready to solve problems posed in 1985.

Elon Musk claims the next Optimus hand will have 50 actuators, a massive leap in complexity from the 17-actuator V2.5 prototype analyzed by experts. The new goal: “superhuman” precision for surgical tasks.

In a new interview, K-Scale Labs CEO Benjamin Bolte gives a candid post-mortem on the startup’s collapse, detailing a critical strategic bet on its flagship K-Bot that failed to secure venture capital, and his fear of being seen as a "toy company."

A visit to 1X's headquarters radically changed investor Chris Camillo's view on the company's tendon-driven robots, which he now sees as a potential frontrunner for in-home deployment. Robotics expert Scott Walter, who accompanied him, was also highly impressed.
