This prototype sheds over 20 pounds, enhancing mobility, and increases walking pace by 30% with new feet and smoother movement.

Finger sensors enable delicate object manipulation, demonstrated by handling an egg. Upgrades like a more flexible neck, integrated electronics, and quicker hands with tactile feedback aim to replicate human abilities.

The robot exhibits super smooth dance movements in real-time footage. This progress brings humanoid robots closer to the hyper-capable vision seen in movies.
