Driven by the maturity of AI, sensors, and materials technologies, along with the pull effect of labor shortages, more and more companies and institutions are gearing up their R&D efforts to develop humanoid robots. Consequently, humanoid robots are becoming more powerful, and their applications are becoming more widespread.
In the last two years, the development efforts of companies in the US and China have garnered significant attention. The main competitive focuses for humanoid robots are their capabilities for mobility, task execution, and communication interaction.
Different companies emphasize different functions and application areas, and no single humanoid robot has yet emerged as the best performer across all capabilities, according to DIGITIMES Research.
