Robots need policies that can adapt to their sensors, environments, and tasks while running on onboard computing hardware. World models offer a foundation for learning physical interactions, but their size can make on-device deployment difficult. This changes with the new NVIDIA Cosmos 3 Edge. Cosmos 3 Edge is a 4B omni-model (with a 2B NVIDIA Nemotron-based reasoner) in the Cosmos 3 family.

X Square Robot is showcasing its full portfolio of embodied AI technologies at the World Robot Conference 2026 in Beijing, presenting applications ranging from logistics automation and dexterous manipulation to household robotics and AI training-data collection. The Shenzhen-based company is exhibiting at booth C107 during WRC, which runs from August 19 to 23, bringing together […]

Faraday Future Intelligent Electric, a California-based global embodied AI ecosystem company, has announced its support for an orderly exit by AIxC Holdings, of which FF is the majority and controlling shareholder, from its digital asset treasury strategy. AIxC intends to focus on physical AI and robot sharing and rental, operations, and commercialization. The two companies […]

Hexagon Robotics and Schaeffler, a motion technology company, has announced the next milestone in their strategic collaboration as AEON enters Schaeffler’s Humanoid Gym in Germany, marking the next step towards the planned deployment of at least 1,000 AEON humanoids in the coming years. The Humanoid Gym provides a Train-Validate-Deploy model in a dedicated industrial environment. Schaeffler […]

Scientists have developed a hybrid robotic skin that combines electrical impedance tomography with pneumatic pressure sensing in an effort to improve force detection across large areas of a humanoid robot, as highlighted by RoboSkin. Described in a preprint published in May 2026, the system uses electrical impedance tomography (EIT) to determine where contact occurs, while four […]

Saminda Wattuhewa, senior lecturer and course leader in cyber security, University of Portsmouth A construction site is one of the worst places to rely on GPS. Concrete floors stack overhead, steel frames scatter the signal, and basements block it outright. Yet this is exactly the environment where autonomous robots are increasingly expected to work precisely […]

The Association for Advancing Automation (A3) and the Mahoning County Career & Technical Center (MCCTC) will offer no-cost robotics and automation training across Ohio through a $499,000 workforce grant that will help the state’s residents build skills for increasingly technology-driven careers. Awarded through Ohio’s Individual Microcredential Assistance Program (IMAP), the grant will support approximately 3,000 […]

Rodriguez has introduced a collaborative linear transfer system that can move a cobot between multiple workstations and extend its operating range to as much as 10 metres. The company is offering Thomson’s Movotrak Cobot Transfer Unit (CTU), which it describes as “a movable seventh axis” designed to allow a single cobot to perform tasks at […]
