DESIGNED TO WORK 24/7 - ROBOT SWAPS ITS OWN BATTERY UBTech’s Walker S2 just blurred the line between workforce and machine. The 5'3" humanoid robot can now swap its own battery in under 3 minutes, no humans needed. It walks to a station, ejects the drained pack, plugs in a fresh one - and gets right back to work. Tested in real car factories like BYD and Nio, the S2 isn’t a demo anymore. It’s a fully autonomous labor unit designed to run nonstop: no sleep, no breaks, no downtime. Source: Fox News, UBTech

BARGAIN BOT OR FUTURE OVERLORD? UNITREE’S $6K HUMANOID DROPS Unitree’s new R1 humanoid costs less than a high-end gaming PC and can cartwheel into your nightmares. It’s 4’2”, weighs 55 lbs, and has 26 joints - enough to throw punches, do handstands, and possibly judge your posture. It runs on a multimodal LLM and is fully customizable, because of course your robot needs a fashion sense too. For $6K, you get a gymnastic AI gremlin with potential. What could possibly go wrong?
