The new robot is capable of handling all sorts of house chores, including cleaning, arranging, washing clothes and dishes, and preparing tea, coffee, and food.
It was developed by 1X Technologies, an engineering and robotics company that produces androids capable of human-like movements and behaviors.
In videos shared by 1X, the NEO Gamma humanoid robot is seen serving coffee, helping hang a painting, and walking around with a laundry basket. According to the company, the robot will be equipped with advanced visual and language models, and once it finishes its daily tasks, it will recharge itself in preparation for the next day's work.
“Home Humanoid—your personal assistant and companion. NEO adds a sense of order and balance to your home life that lets you focus on important things,” 1X stated on their official website.
NEO Gamma still needs to undergo a long list of tests to prove its safety and functionality. Notably, the company has not provided further details yet, but sources speculate that the price of the new humanoid robot will be approximately $30,000.
It is worth noting that humanoid robots have not gained much popularity over the past few years, despite advancements in technology and innovation. Vacuum robots are the only well-known and most demanded robot-like machines.
This is mainly due to the fact that humanoid robots, especially domestic ones, need to prove high safety standards, as well as advanced artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. However, 1X is primarily focusing on safety measures and developing AI techniques.
