    Jungheinrich and Automha jointly develop two-way pallet shuttle system

    Jungheinrich has established a strategic partnership with Automha, a Comau subsidiary, to jointly develop the UP-Carrier GTJ two-way pallet shuttle for high-density pallet storage. The solution can be integrated into existing warehouse environments to increase storage density without major modifications; initially, pallet transport is still handled by industrial vehicles, with the option to gradually upgrade to fully automated material flow. The product has been deployed in more than 200 projects in over 25 countries and can be expanded as needed with automation technologies such as Jungheinrich mobile robots.

    Deep Blue AI: What panoramic cameras can and cannot add as they enter embodied data collection

    Deep Blue AI reviewed the trend of panoramic cameras being moved into the embodied data collection field, arguing that they are better suited as a spatial context layer within hybrid collection setups rather than as a replacement for fine-grained motion data. The article traces the evolution of data collection routes from real-robot teleoperation, UMI handheld grippers, and DexCap motion-capture gloves to EgoMimic first-person-view glasses, and notes that panoramic recording defers framing decisions until after collection, so the same footage can generate multiple observations.

    After Unitree's IPO, humanoid robots gather dust in warehouses: shipments, rental rates, and financing cool down

    Unitree Technology shipped over 5,500 pure bipedal humanoid robots in 2025, with humanoid robot revenue of 868 million yuan. After listing on the STAR Market in August 2026, its market value has retraced more than 55% from its peak. Daily rental rates for humanoid robots fell from about 20,000 yuan in early 2025 to the thousand-yuan level in 2026. In the first half of 2026, global shipments exceeded 22,000 units, but only about 4,000 entered factories; entertainment and commercial performances plus science education and data collection together accounted for over 60%.

    After Robot Rental Prices Fall 70%, How Does the Industry Shed Its Buffer?

    By 2026, daily rental for humanoid robots has fallen to the thousand-yuan range, down more than 70% from early 2025; daily rental for robot dogs has dropped below 500 yuan, and more than 90% of rental stalls in Huaqiangbei have withdrawn. The article argues that the root cause of falling rents is not only increased supply, but also that rental and sales share the same demand pool, dominated by entertainment performances and educational displays, with low repurchase rates. Manufacturer-controlled rental platforms absorb production capacity and inventory through subsidies, but the buffer layer is limited, and the industry is being forced to push robots into scenarios with sustained repurchases, such as industrial manufacturing and warehousing logistics.
