What we read, build and learn while turning humanoid robots into useful workers.
Hardware is racing ahead; teaching is the bottleneck. Why demonstrations recorded on the robot itself beat video datasets and VR teleoperation rigs.
Tendon vs. direct-drive hands, Unitree on why humanoids are not in factories yet, NVIDIA SONIC at 99.2% tracking, and teleoperation as the near-term bridge.
NVIDIA SONIC on the Unitree G1, Hugging Face's open Physical AI push, and why the humanoid bottleneck is shifting to the gripper interface.
