Webinar: Sensor Innovations in the Humanoid Robot Market
Presenter: Noah El Alami, Senior Technology Analyst, IDTechEx
Date: Thursday September 24, 2026
After a long phase of research platforms and early-stage prototypes, humanoid robots are rapidly transitioning to a mass-manufacturable, commercial technology. One of the key areas of the components for humanoids allowing this transition is the increasing maturity of enabling sensor technologies including 3D cameras, lidars, tactile sensors, and 6D force-torque sensors.
In this webinar, IDTechEx Technology Analyst Noah El Alami will draw on research from the new IDTechEx market report "Sensors for Humanoid Robots 2027-2037: Technologies, Players, Forecasts to cover:
· A primer on the current state of the humanoid robot market.
· Introduction to the types of sensors commonly deployed in commercial humanoid robot models, including perception sensors, force-torque sensors, encoders, IMUs, and tactile sensors.
· Market trends for each type, analysis of the competing sensing technologies (e.g. cameras vs lidar), and the trade-offs between them.
· Explanation of IDTechEx's market outlook for sensors in humanoid robots and a summary of key takeaways.
