Here is a robotic hip exoskeleton that provides wearers assistance with movement. Developed by the Human Robot Systems Laboratory (HRSL), this exoskeleton weighs only 3kg. It is worn around the waist and fastened to the thighs. It has 2 actuators with a brushless DC motor each.
Robots are going to do many things for us in space in the future, including most of our exploration on the moon and Mars. We have already covered a bunch of GITAI space robots in the past. This video shows them building a communication tower. For this, a lunar rover and 3 inchworm robots with grapple end effectors were used.
Humanoid robots are getting more advanced all the time. Plenty of companies are working on perfecting them. The Unitree H1 has just broken the world record at 3.3m/s. For those of you keeping count, that is 7.38mph. The robot features whole body dynamic coordination. It can also climb stairs.
Robotic mowers are getting more advanced features all the time. The Segway Navimow i Series is an AI assisted robotic mower with a 140FOV camera that can avoid 28 obstacles. It is smart enough to identify the edge of your lawn during the mapping process. It has a Ride-on Boundary mode to straddle the boundary between grass and non-grass areas and take care of the edges.
This is the Moorebot Scout Model E: a cute little robot that can be programmed to patrol preset paths in your home. It comes with a 1080p camera and 2-way audio. It is compatible with Alexa and Google Home. It has AI to detect human bodies and pets to alert you.
This robot is smart enough to find its way to the charging station. It is ready for Scratch programming. It has a 4-wheel drive with tracks, so it can overcome uneven terrains. The companion app lets you see your home from anywhere.
This is the OMRON MD-900 AMR: a mobile robot with tops sped of 2.2m/sec. This particular model has max payload capacity of 900kg. It has a runtime of 10 hours. It is smart enough to automatically plan efficient routes and avoid collisions. It can operate in coordination with 100 AMRs.
This is the Honda UNI-ONE: a personal mobility device with advanced self balancing and sensors that let users move any direction based on their postural movements. The seat can be raised and lowered. It is equipped with the Honda Omni Traction Drive System.
Here is a transumeral prosthesis that emulates the behavior of the human neuromuscular system. The ANP has 4 degrees of freedom and a fully joint torque controlled design. It is human-like in size and weight. The ANP has a 24V DC power supply. This prosthesis has custom made actuator modules and torque sensing. It has a tendon control wrist. It also has an IMU for orientation measurement. The below video from MIRMI shows it in action:

Meet the LawnMaster VBRM16 Robot: a robotic lawnmower that doesn’t require an app or boundary wire to work. It uses a grass recognition camera and ultrasonic sensors to mow the lawn. It can handle lawns up to 100m2. It uses a Lithium-Ion battery and can mow your lawn in a random pattern for up to 4 hours.
This is the Yahboom Rosmaster X1: a Jetson Nano robot that takes your Python coding to the next level. It has an aluminum alloy construction with non-slip rubber tires. It can be used with optional modules such as a 7-inch display, voice module, LiDAR and depth camera for complex tasks.
