The Roborock Rover has garnered the attention that few devices can achieve at CES 2026, and I had the chance to see it in person.

Scientists achieve major robotics milestone as robot learns 1,000 different physical tasks in single day, potentially transforming manufacturing, healthcare and home robotics.

You can see it in the biggest labor shift in modern history. In the early 1800s, around 70% of Americans worked on farms. Then came tractors, combine harvesters, mechanized irrigation. By 2000, farm work in the U.S. had dropped to about 2% of the workforce.

Researchers have created microscopic robots so small they’re barely visible, yet smart enough to sense, decide, and move completely on their own. Powered by light and equipped with tiny computers, the robots swim by manipulating electric fields rather than using moving parts.

Having a robot housekeeper like Rosie from The Jetsons cartoon isn’t all that far-fetched. In fact, it’s becoming a reality — but with a few caveats. NEO is a humanoid robot designed to take on daily chores like taking out the trash, tidying rooms ...

Humanoid robots have been promised for decades, but most still look and move like machines. Ameca changes that, with a face and body language so nuanced that people instinctively treat it less like a gadget and more like a character standing in front of them.

What is in the pipeline? Humanoid robots that can obey commands, make decisions, and deftly perform manual tasks have long been a sci-fi fantasy. Now they are becoming reality. Artificial intelligence, coupled with advances in robotics, has the potential ...

A dozen or so young men and women, eyes obscured by VR headsets, shuffle around a faux kitchen inside a tech company’s Silicon Valley headquarters. Their arms are bent at the elbows, palms facing down. One pilot stops to pick up a bottle of hot sauce ...

While not 100% hands-free, it's miles ahead of where robot vacuums were only a few years ago.

Meet Phantom MK1: an imposing humanoid robot designed to transform battlefields, the moon and even Mars—and it may already be taking jobs near you. The 5-foot-9, 176-pound steel and plastic android that can walk nearly 4 mph is manufactured by ...
