At its Investor Day, Qualcomm laid out its robotics strategy, splitting robot computing architecture into a System 2 reasoning layer (18-core CPU, 700 TOPS multi-NPU, 64GB memory, over 270GB/s bandwidth, running VLA large models), a System 1 action layer, and a System 0 execution layer, built on deterministic Ethernet with nanosecond-level synchronization and multi-sensor ASICs.
STIER uses AI flexible grinding technology to address the pain points of easy scratching and insufficient consistency in weld seam grinding for battery box enclosures. Its solution uses PolishX flexible force control (accuracy ±0.1N) and millimeter-level visual positioning perception, combined with a process grinding knowledge base and the NextBrain™ AI cloud system to make grinding decisions, and has self-learning and adaptive capabilities. It also provides full-process support including customized laser scanning solutions, real-time data monitoring, and grinding head wear warnings.
Striding AI released a demo showing its Physical AI system performing autonomous shelf restocking in a simulated retail environment. The restocking was completed in a simulated retail setting; the original text did not provide metrics such as robot model, payload, or success rate, nor did it state whether this was a real-machine run.

The STIER PolishV series introduces three radial flexible grinding tools: a flexible spindle, a flexible engraving grinder, and a flexible reciprocating file. They use a 360° circumferential floating plus ±5° oscillation architecture and can be paired with various abrasives to handle deburring, flash, and parting-line challenges. The three tools target precision grinding of high-hardness complex workpieces, narrow-groove recessed areas, and soft workpieces such as copper busbars, covering scenarios from large castings to micro die castings. Practical cases include deburring bearing brackets, weld seam grinding for new energy vehicle battery boxes, and removing tool marks from server wiring copper busbars.
STIER has launched an AI flexible grinding robot workstation that builds a "perception-analysis-decision-execution" physical AI closed loop, targeting the grinding of multi-curved-surface parts in high-end manufacturing such as aerospace and precision molds. The solution uses 3D vision inspection and positioning, a PolishX flexible force-control system belt grinder, and the self-developed NextBrain™ Mushroom Cloud system. In a wet grinding case involving silicon carbide composite workpieces, it achieved fully autonomous operation across the entire process, with contact force control accuracy of ±0.5% FS, per-piece processing time shortened by more than 22%, and product changeover completed within 10 minutes.
The world's first full-size humanoid robot to successfully climb a 1-meter-high box! Climbing is the ultimate test of full-body multi-joint coordination and core strength. PNDbotics' full-size Adam humanoid robot demonstrated the hardcore essence of a true "future warrior."
In a video released by ROBROS, IGRIS-C moves the two boxes in front of it onto a conveyor belt one at a time, and when a person brings the boxes back, it repeats the same motion. ROBROS says its goal is not to replace people but to let people do better work alongside robots, and the video is the first stepping stone in this collaboration direction. The project is still at the PoC stage, and what is being shown is the process of building the solution, not a finished product.
Striding AI has released an early demo, saying it is working toward the goal of seamless collaboration between humans and robots. Its mission is to "Bring Ease to the World" with PhysicalAI, and it invites users to subscribe to follow its R&D progress. More information is available at www.striding.ai.

@EclipseVentures: Genesis AI has just unveiled Eno, its first general-purpose robot. This is more than a robot launch; it shows how much becomes possible when AI, hardware, and system design are built together from day one. Congratulations to @zhou_xian_, @theo_gervet, and the entire Genesis team on this major milestone! The main post responded: Thank you for the early and ongoing support!
Humanoid robots don't have to look human. Meet Eno, our first general-purpose robot. Not a machine pretending to be a person, but intelligence given a body. At Genesis, we are building a future where robots are no longer cold and distant, but capable, composed, and always ready to help. Launching in Q4 this year.
Genesis AI has unveiled Eno, its first agentic robot, which integrates an AI agent and a general-purpose robot into a single system that can reason, plan, and act in the real world. Eno was developed end to end in house at Genesis, spanning simulation, the GENE foundation model, the data engine, the dexterous hand, and the robot body, so that intelligence and hardware advance as one. The product is positioned as matching human capability without imitating human form, aiming to extend rather than replicate human abilities.
Kepler debuted its long-endurance, heavy-load quadruped robot Mechanical Qilin series at the 2026 Zhangjiang Embodied Intelligence Developers Conference, reusing the self-developed planetary roller screw actuators from its K2 Bumblebee humanoid robot.
