Designed to resemble humans in appearance and behavior, these devices are increasingly incorporating technology to improve their interaction with the environment. This includes natural language processing, mobility and sensory abilities.
Although these facilities were conceived with the idea of transforming various sectors and facilitate certain tasks to improve efficiency and productivity, They also put the debate on the future of work, the ethics of artificial intelligence and coexistence with technology on the table.
We tell you which humanoid robots are considered so far the most advanced.
It is a company specialized in the development of this type of model in order to facilitate the automation of processes in some industries. Its most notable product is a robot known as Apollo, which was designed to reduce labor shortages.
Apollo has weight 72 kilograms and measures about one meter and 70 centimeters. These characteristics are not accidental, since its main task is to support construction work or tasks that require strength.
Recent tests have shown that this robot is capable of lifting objects weighing up to 25 kilograms, walking and opening doors.

The star product of this AI robotics company is Image 01, a robot capable of performing physically demanding or dangerous tasks. Among the features that stand out the most is the ability to recognize objects not only by shape, but also by functionality.
This robot also has a load capacity of up to 20 kilograms and an autonomy of five hours.

Created by Boston Dynamics, this humanoid robot has the ability to interact with its environment using its hands. Recently, has been improved for lifting heavy and irregular objects and move more smoothly.
Plus, it’s integrated with artificial intelligence, so it will learn from its environment and improve over time to perform tasks more accurately.

This is the second generation humanoid robot developed by Tesla. This is equipped with more mobility and has sensors in the fingers for handling finer objects.
Except, It can move at a speed of about 0.6 meters per second, which represents a speed increase of more than 30% compared to the previous version. Like Apollo, it has a weight of 72 kilograms and an average height of one meter and 70 centimeters, which allows it to perform all types of tasks that require strength.
