With human-like arms and legs, humanoid robots have recently been taking advantage of their stature to compete in the World Humanoid Games in China beginning on Saturday. IDTechEx's research uncovers the technologies that make these robots move.

In this article, Senior Technology Analyst Noah El Alami provides an overview of the market opportunities for different types of sensors that are essential for humanoid robots - including cameras, lidar, force/torque sensors, tactile sensors, and more.

Self-driving cars may have once been an imagined thing of the future, but with advancing technologies and systems, from radar to ADAS, autonomy is already levelling up, and level 3 vehicles and robotaxis can prove it.

The UK Government has announced that it will invest more than £5 billion in drones and autonomous systems over the remainder of the current Parliament. This represents the UK's largest-ever investment in uncrewed warfare and reflects a wider shift in global defence procurement. Armed forces are placing greater emphasis on uncrewed platforms that can be deployed at scale, produced at relatively low cost, and updated rapidly.

Artificial intelligence having a physical body and fields being tended to from the sky are two phenomena that could be enabled by developments within the robotics sector. This article explores developments across humanoids and drones.

The world of computing is growing in line with increasing demands for problem solving and robotic integration across many major sectors. Quantum computing, semiconductor technologies, and the rise of humanoid robots are some examples of how diverse computing technologies can be.

Humanoid actuators are responsible for bringing humanoid robots to life with physical motion, allowing humanoids to walk, lift objects, handle tools, and interact with the environment. As the humanoid robot market grows, there are increasing opportunities for materials and component suppliers to enter the supply chain. This article from IDTechEx looks at the current state of humanoid actuators and highlights some of the directions and outlook for next generation of humanoid actuation.

IDTechEx analyst Dr Shababa Selim assesses the opportunities for materials and component suppliers for humanoid robots.
