The company reports repeat positioning accuracy of up to 0.03 mm and whole-hand payload of up to 24 kg.
The product is intended to coordinate with robot bodies and arms for grasping, handling and machine-tending work.
The same disclosure describes a broader portfolio spanning industrial, commercial-service, research and underwater hand families; the reported near-RMB100M financing is cumulative context, not a new round.
Bridge stands 88 cm tall, weighs approximately 13 kg and uses 30-40 cm arms with two-finger grippers.
Developers receive SDK access, open motion-control APIs and motion-capture and VR integration.
The first Builder Program phase will shortlist 500 developers, including 200 offered complimentary Bridge access and 300 given priority purchase access.
The air module mounts in the Sherpa battery bay and the ground station connects to a compatible generator; installation takes less than 15 minutes on Sherpa Drone 1 or 1.5.
A headquarters test kept a Power Tether-equipped Sherpa airborne for eight hours and 48 seconds on one generator connection with no battery swaps.
Lucid reported more than 8,760 cumulative flight hours across 600-plus connected Sherpa drones as of August 17; that fleet total is not a single continuous or exclusively tether-powered flight.
Index launched with 264,000 downloads across 108 countries, 44,000 weekly active users and more than 16 million uploaded videos.
Figure says the pipeline processes 30 minutes of video per second and has paid contributors more than $15 million.
The company plans to commit more than $1 billion to data and compute over the next 12 months, with Index data used to expand Helix across tasks, objects and environments.

Evidence notes
The pipeline draws on roughly 25,000 connected Socar vehicles producing about 1.1 million kilometres of driving data per day.
Apex anonymizes, time-synchronizes and labels driving situations, then supplies international-standard data for model training and simulation.
Customers can commission collection by region, period, vehicle type and scenario; a sensor-equipped Ioniq 5 prototype adds dedicated LiDAR and seven-camera capture.
The solution combines Qingyan's data-space and Physical AI workflows with Deep Kernel's trusted-execution technology.
The architecture covers remote attestation, encrypted execution and verifiable outputs, supporting data-use-without-visibility and model verification without disclosure.
Target users include robotics companies, factories and data providers collaborating on 4D world-state data, model training and evaluation.
B21 weighs 700 g and combines 15 N fingertip force with up to 5 kg of grip force.
The five-finger hand is designed for pinching, enveloping grasps and object rotation, with tactile sensing distributed across the hand for force feedback.
ZWHAND rates the hand for up to one million operating cycles and provides multiple communications interfaces for robot integration and secondary development.
The lifting column uses a 150 × 150 mm aluminium body, a 20 × 25 mm internal cable-chain cavity, an integrated servo drive and DC48V power, with full-load lifting speed up to 200 mm/s.
The seven-in-one swerve module combines travel and steering motors, a reducer, absolute encoder and drive electronics; it carries 60 kg per wheel and is rated IP67.
The WRC launch focused on new component variants; JIECANG had already presented robot lifting-column and frameless torque-motor products at WAIC in July.
Delta lists the dual-arm platform among the exhibition's featured new products and solutions, alongside its wider smart-manufacturing and robotics portfolio.
The platform is presented as an embodied-intelligence system that connects AI inputs with coordinated two-arm robot execution.
The public debut opened with Automation Taipei on 19 August 2026 at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center.
Physis 257g combines stereo RGB imaging with AI depth processing; the compact monocular Physis 157g shares its imaging, synchronisation and software architecture for multi-camera robot perception.
The new Gemini 338Le and 338Lg stereo 3D cameras add stronger ambient-light resistance, using industrial Gigabit Ethernet and GMSL2/FAKRA interfaces respectively for industrial and logistics settings.
Orbbec also presented its EGO, UMI, WristCam and Hub bodyless data-collection hardware as a complete matrix; the underlying platform had been announced before WRC.
Wave SE retains 22 independently actuated degrees of freedom in a human-scale hand intended for embodied-AI research and robot integration.
The SE configuration is rated for a 24 kg payload, 90 N grip force, 12 N fingertip force and operation at 2 Hz.
Its tactile configuration provides a 60 × 60 array, 0.05 N force sensitivity, 2 mm spatial resolution and onboard inference at up to 30 frames per second.
Half of the robot's 66 degrees of freedom are concentrated in its hands; Xiaomi continues to describe the platform as a prototype.
At the Embodied Garden booth, the robot grasps scented paper, scatters it as decorative petals, hands pieces to visitors and performs handshakes and fist bumps.
The booth opens to the general public on 20 August, and Xiaomi says the prototype will be shown in Europe after its China debut.
AT-Dock integrates WiBotic transmitter and receiver hardware with ROS 2 control for charging start, stop, voltage and current.
The system supports 150 W to 1 kW configurations for drones, UGVs, AMRs and USVs.
It provides coupling feedback, live voltage/current/temperature/error telemetry, battery-specific settings and IP67-rated transmitter and receiver hardware.
Fi0 combines language, vision, world state and an explicit robot-embodiment representation, and can accept a human demonstration as skill context during inference without a task-specific parameter update.
A01, A02 and A03 scale from one flexible segment and 2 DoF to three segments and 6 arm DoF plus the end effector, with published maximum payloads of 200 g, 400 g and 600 g.
All three arms support ROS 1/2 and Python/C++; A02 and A03 add a graphical interface plus MuJoCo and SAPIEN environments.
Schaeffler says its forming process lowers manufacturing cost by more than 25 percent and material consumption by more than 75 percent compared with conventional precision machining.
Production is scheduled to start in Germany in 2027 before being rolled out to additional regions and humanoid manufacturers.
The process transfers automotive manufacturing experience from more than two million formed strain-wave gearboxes supplied globally during the previous decade.

Evidence notes
Engineers can optimise designs against performance, cost, capability and supply-chain requirements within one integrated workspace.
The platform accepts natural-language requirements, generates or revises a part or system and identifies components needed to build the resulting design.
VXB demonstrated the workflow with a drone redesign constrained to parts produced in the United States and allied countries.
The platform combines Youibot's FabriX model, point-cloud-built digital environments and parallel reinforcement learning, with more than 10,000 simulated trials per robot per day.
Its sim-to-real workflow models millimetre-level geometry, physical contact and robot-view imagery, then varies lighting and pose to improve transfer to operating sites.
Youibot says energy-inspection deployments with State Grid and China Energy Group cut live-line deployment cycles from three to four months to three to four days.
The system detects and classifies anomalies, georeferences potential threats and produces an aggregated inspection record without putting divers in the water.
Bayonet Sweep adapts navigation and autonomy developed for EverClean to force-protection missions for navies, ports and security teams.
The front-sweep, rear-scrub layout combines sweeping, scrubbing, vacuuming and dust-mopping; the roller reaches 800 rpm, suction reaches 20 kPa and the system supports 85°C hot-water scrubbing.
Its 8-in-1 dock handles charging, clean-water refill, wastewater drainage, detergent dispensing, roller and squeegee rinsing, roller spin-drying and water heating.
Autonomous mapping, floor and stain recognition and adaptive cleaning adjust movement and cleaning intensity, while the robot can pass through routes 50 cm wide and 60 cm high.
