AI is becoming physical, and humanoid robots are one of the most striking examples. 🤖 Think about everything your hand does when you pick up a cup of coffee. Now, think about the engineering feats needed to replicate this motion in humanoids. Intelligent sensing, real-time processing, and precise motor control all have to work together seamlessly at the system level for humanoids to function in the real world. We know that making robots that can operate safely and reliably outside of controlled environments is not just an AI challenge; it's a semiconductor challenge. So we asked our robotics experts what it takes to enable the next generation of humanoid robots, and how chip innovations are solving some of the biggest engineering challenges in humanoids. What part of humanoid robotics do you think is closest to being solved? Swipe through to see how our experts are thinking about it, and check out the comments for more insights.
