Chinese tech giant Ubtech has launched the 'world’s first' humanoid robot designed to be an everyday companion and live in your home. Despite ambitious claims, the product launch left many people more skeptical than impressed. -
EngineAI's T800 humanoid robot, backed by 1-billion yuan in funding, boasts acrobatic combat skills, human-like agility, modular batteries, and advanced AI. Mass production begins in 2026, aiming to revolutionize industrial applications worldwide. -
Construction robots have been around for a while. The new kid on this block is called Charlotte, and it's billed as being autonomously capable of building a 2,150-sq-ft home in a single day – operating at roughly the speed of 100 bricklayers.

July 29, 2026 | Abhimanyu GhoshalThe US is banning the sale of robots made outside the country. That includes all the cool ones we've covered out of China, which can dance, run half-marathons in record time, provide companionship to seniors, and carry loads over rocky terrain. -
July 27, 2026 | Omar KardoudiItalian startup Generative Bionics unveils Gene.01, a humanoid robot with sensor-packed skin that feels people approaching and adjusts before contact, aiming to make human-robot collaboration safer on factory floors. -
July 13, 2026 | Omar KardoudiScientists have created a robotic bird that swims, dives, and rockets out of water to fly, all without propellers, legs, or folding tricks. Just clever engineering solving a problem nature already does gracefully. -
July 10, 2026 | Omar KardoudiTwo humanoid robots just performed live surgery for the first time in history, hinting at a future where compact, affordable machines bring advanced surgical care to rural hospitals, battlefields, and other resource-strapped settings. -
June 26, 2026 | Bronwyn ThompsonThe first hotel run by robots is set to open its doors to the public next year. It comes as no surprise that it's happening in China – on the artificial island built for the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Link, the cross-sea megaproject in the Pearl River Delta. -
June 25, 2026 | Abhimanyu GhoshalFaraday Future has had an awfully rough go of building an electric car brand. It's now shifting gears to wade into the world of robotics and physical AI – and it has a heap of robots on offer, including a multipurpose $90,000 humanoid. -
June 12, 2026 | Etiido UkoSoft robots have a “cardiovascular” problem. While their bodies can deform, their hearts, the pumps that keep them moving, have remained bulky and rigid. Researchers have developed a tiny, powerful pump that doesn’t require any mechanical components. -
June 07, 2026 | Bronwyn ThompsonHumanoids may be winning marathons and getting factory jobs, but after spending a few days with around 100 different robots of all shapes and sizes, one thing was clear: There's a chasm separating viral demonstration hype and reality. -
May 29, 2026 | Omar KardoudiA bipedal humanoid might not be the best design for operation in microgravity. A four-armed robot from an offshoot of ETH Zurich brings four arms into the equation – one pair to anchor Helios to surfaces while the other pair gets to work. -
May 26, 2026 | Omar KardoudiA Silicon Valley startup wants to put a trainable humanoid robot on every developer's bench for under $3,000 – and the first production batches of Domo are already being prepared for early customers. -
May 25, 2026 | Bronwyn ThompsonThe first humanoid training school for bots of all shapes and sizes opens soon, bringing together more than 100 different models with the one goal – to learn real-world skills, and help future "students" get up to speed even faster. What a timeline. -
May 04, 2026 | Malcolm AzaniaThanks to researchers at Georgia Tech, humanoid robots have taken new steps towards replacing human labor – and not simply for dangerous tasks such as mining the depths of the Earth, or difficult tasks such as high-speed mass-assembly of cars. -
May 01, 2026 | Abhimanyu GhoshalThe next time you fly through Tokyo's Haneda Airport, your luggage might be taken care of by the dexterous hands of a humanoid robot. It's part of a pilot program to address a shortage of ground support staff in Japan. -
April 22, 2026 | Etiido Uko"Ancient Japanese Art Brings Spineless Robot To Life!" Sounds very much like a movie summary. In reality, it describes the recent work of engineers who have created a robot that moves without a single motor, using the principles of origami instead. -
April 19, 2026 | Bronwyn ThompsonA field of robots competing in a half marathon demonstrated how frighteningly fast the technology has developed in 12 months. Even if one bot had a race to forget, smashing into pieces at the starting line, Honor's Lightning instead smashed records.
