Texas-based Apptronik has unveiled the Apollo humanoid robot. It looks a bit like the Tesla Bot and is designed for various tasks in the workplace.
Created by Texas-based Apptronik, the new robot worker, called Apollo, certainly looks like the real deal and is far from the kind of clunky, awkward contraptions that sometimes appear at such unveilings. That’s probably because Apollo is the culmination of Apptronik’s experience and expertise in creating more than 10 other robots, among them NASA’s Valkyrie humanoid robot.
Related Apptronik this week posted a bunch of videos showing off the humanoid robot’s abilities, which currently include unloading, lifting, carrying, and stacking objects. You can watch some of the footage below: As shown in one of the videos, the robot features digital displays on various parts of its body to communicate with its human bosses or nearby human workers, if there are any. Speaking of co-workers, Apollo is fitted with various sensors to ensure that it steers clear of people in the vicinity, or other nearby obstacles.
Those following the development of humanoid robots will have noted some similarities between the in-development Tesla Bot and Xiaomi’s CyberOne robot. Hyundai-owned Boston Dynamics has also made impressive progress in developing highly versatile, mobile robots for the workplace.
