Now back to number five, PSI Robotics R1. This humanoid excels in dexterous manipulation and long horizon closed loop operation, with the R1 being able to execute complex chains of autonomous tasks lasting for over 30 minutes. This is all thanks to the integration of perception, reasoning and execution, featuring architecture to support both fast and slow-brain collaboration for real-time adaptation and reinforcement learning-driven self-improvement. On top of this, the robot achieves millimeter-level precision in actions such as flipping cards, grasping objects and threading rings.

And when it comes to dexterity, the full-hand tactile and force control system enables both blind grasping and highly accurate force output. Furthermore, a 16-degree of freedom exoskeleton enables highly realistic remote operation to closely match human hand movements. In fact, the robot’s modular design allows it to generalize for a wide variety of deployments, including logistics, retail and even home settings. Number four, Spirit AI’s MOS1. This new humanoid stands out for its whole-body safe-talk off-feature and high-precision collision detection, ensuring secure operation in dynamic environments. On top of this, each arm is equipped with high-performance force and torque sensors, plus position hybrid-controlled, 7-degree of freedom bionic joints, enabling the MOS1 to carry out fine-grained anthropomorphic tasks.

Furthermore, its high-dynamic, omnidirectional wheelbase allows for flexible steering and stable movement. The MOS1 adapts efficiently to varied environments, allowing for free and autonomous movement. At the core is an intelligent VLA-embodied brain with high-power density integrated force and torque control joints, offering a total of 26 degrees of freedom for coordinated and flexible motion throughout its body. Number three, Matrix Robotics Matrix 1. Standing at 180 centimeters tall and weighing 67 kilograms, Matrix 1 achieves speeds of up to 7.6 kilometers per hour and can carry up to 10 kilograms per arm. Plus, its hidden wiring and compact build make it well-suited for workplaces where space matters.

On top of this, Matrix 1 features a comprehensive AI vision system, optional LIDAR with ultrasonic sensors for obstacle detection, and microphones with noise cancellation for seamless voice control.
