Humanoids in live production at BMW Leipzig plant. Hexagon Robotics AEON performs live manufacturing operations while being trained on future applications, including high-voltage battery assembly and measurement. This milestone really HIGHLIGHTS a question the industry is debating: can a single humanoid platform handle a range of tasks beyond manipulation using the same hardware and software foundation? In other words, are we moving closer to general purpose? @BMWGroup and Hexagon Robotics are collecting real-world answers. Their focus is on autonomy, robustness, and scalability: moving to production-ready deployment. The humanoid race is about who can create value on the factory floor. LET'S GO. ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news → ziegler.substack.com

There's a lot of talk about reindustrialization. At @regentcraft, we're actually doing it. 📣 Big news from @billythalheimer on the @reindsummit stage in Detroit: The world's first Seaglider Manufacturing Facility is now complete at 1 Seaglider Way in Rhode Island! 🇺🇸 We're proud to be part of the movement to reinvigorate American manufacturing and reinvent maritime mobility.

Faster, cheaper robot deployment in factories? A post-training framework for diffusion policies that uses self-rollouts and physical constraints to achieve safety alignment in robotics without extra demos, rewards, or human interventions... The ICML 2026 Spotlight paper from Tsinghua PhD student Lingxuan Wu demonstrates emergent fine-grained correction behaviors in a GPU heat sink assembly task requiring millimeter-level precision. The accompanying video shows 10 successful autonomous trials at 4x speed, highlighting collision avoidance and trajectory corrections within tight 3mm feasible regions for industrial applications. Thank you for sharing, Lingxuan Wu (@EthanNg51931527) 📌 Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2606.08414 Code: github.com/thu-ml/PACT Project: ethan-iai.github.io/pact/ —— Weekly robotics and AI insights.

Genesis AI just unveiled Eno. It's humanoid robot that challenges everything the industry assumed about what robots should look like. Forbes just called it 'the iPhone moment for humanoid robots'. No head. No face. No exposed motors or cables. 22 degrees of freedom per hand with different finger lengths (like actual human hands). Back-drivable for safety. Onboard cameras and tactile sensors. In demos: bundling wires with tape (genuinely hard, tape is sticky and unpredictable), performing lab automation with millimeter precision on unmodified equipment. Optional chest screen shows the robot's reasoning before it acts, a visual window into its mind to build trust. Powered by @gs_ai_ GENE foundation model. Payload 3-5kg per arm, 4-6 hours battery. Industrial deployments late 2026, homes much later. ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news → ziegler.substack.com

A motorless, flexible prosthetic foot inspired by the anatomy of the human extremity and waterproof is the new SoftFoot Pro bionic foot prototype, designed by the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia (IIT-Italian Institute of Technology) in Genoa in collaboration with Centro E. Piaggio of University of Pisa. Its design is unique on an international level and aims to serve both as a flexible technological prosthesis for people with disabilities and as a solution for the humanoid robots of the future.

Fastest walking speed achieved by a paraplegic person in a powered exoskeleton: 0.23 m/s (0.82 km/h; 0.5 mph) by Seunghwan Kim and Team KAIST at Cybathlon ETH The record was achieved using a WalkONSuit F1 prototype developed at the KAIST Exoskeleton Lab in Daejeon, South Korea. Seunghwan Kim from South Korea says "Approximately seven years ago, I suffered a T10 spinal cord injury in a traffic accident, resulting in paraplegia. Despite this setback, I have never given up and have continued to live my life, consistently preparing for the day I might walk again." He achieved this exoskeleton speed record with Team KAIST EXOLAB at Cybathlon in Switzerland - the “bionic Olympics”, held every four years in Zurich which aims to promote the development of new and improved assisted technologies.

What happens when origami meets robotics? Researchers at Princeton and NC State have developed “Robotapillar,” a soft, modular robot that bends, twists, crawls, and even reconfigures itself to navigate complex environments. Inspired by caterpillar movement and built using Kresling origami structures, the robot integrates steering directly into its body—eliminating the rigidity that often limits soft robots. It can move forward and backward, carry cargo, and assemble into larger formations, offering a glimpse of future robots that could adapt, self-repair, and evolve their capabilities on demand.

Choosing cellular connectivity for IoT devices is more complicated than comparing coverage maps and datasheets. This field guide explores the practical realities of deploying connected devices at scale, from selecting between LTE-M, NB-IoT, Cat-1, and emerging 5G options to planning for roaming, network changes, and long device lifecycles. Learn how to evaluate connectivity based on real-world conditions, design pilot tests that uncover issues before deployment, and avoid costly surprises after launch. A useful resource for hardware engineers, embedded developers, connectivity specialists, and product teams building reliable IoT solutions. #IoT #CellularIoT #EmbeddedSystems #Connectivity #Engineering

Most IIoT platforms cost thousands before you connect a single device. Coreflux starts free so customers can iterate, build traction, and only then move to an enterprise license. The plan comes before the budget, not the other way around. Partner content with Coreflux. #coreflux_ai
