1X Plans Humanoid Robot Trials in Hundreds of Homes by 2025
Norwegian robotics startup 1X has announced plans to initiate early trials of its humanoid robot, Neo Gamma, in several hundred to a few thousand homes by the end of 2025. CEO Bernt Børnich emphasized the importance of real-world testing, stating that they want Neo Gamma to 'live and learn among people' to improve its capabilities. While the robot utilizes AI for basic tasks like walking, it currently relies on human teleoperators for control, as it is not fully autonomous. This move comes amid growing interest in humanoid robots for domestic use, with competitors like Figure also planning home tests in 2025 and potentially securing significant funding. The introduction of such technology into homes raises challenges similar to those faced by autonomous vehicle startups, highlighting the need for careful deployment. Early adopters will play a crucial role in providing data to enhance Neo Gamma's functionalities as part of this experimental phase.
