NEO Gamma: Human-Like Robot for Your Home

While the Star1 robot is built to handle extreme environments like the Gobi Desert, 1X Technologies' NEO Gamma humanoid robot aims to enhance everyday life at home. The Gamma robot not only walks with a natural human gait and realistic arm swings but can also perform practical tasks like squatting to pick up objects and sitting comfortably in chairs.

The NEO Gamma features soft covers to minimize impact on its surroundings and incorporates a new in-house language model that enables natural, human-like conversations. These advancements represent a significant leap forward in internal home testing, a critical first step toward fully autonomous humanoid robots. By leveraging reinforcement learning from human motion capture data, NEO Gamma learns to navigate household scenarios and accomplish tasks that are challenging for other robotic designs.

According to Bernt Børnich, CEO of 1X Technologies, the key to seamlessly integrating humanoid robots into everyday life is developing them in real-world environments, not just isolated labs. "The home provides the context and diverse data needed for humanoids to grow in intelligence and autonomy. It also helps them understand the subtleties of human life—whether it's opening the door for the elderly, moving gently around pets, or adapting to unpredictable surroundings. Robots developed only in industrial or lab settings miss out on this essential experience," said Børnich.

As technology advances, the vision of having a robot helper at home—reminiscent of Rosey the Robot or Baymax—is becoming less science fiction and more a near-future reality. The NEO Gamma robot is a promising step toward that future, where robots not only assist with household tasks but also learn and adapt alongside humans, creating a harmonious coexistence.
