AI talent crisis: a challenge or an opportunity? Recent Sifted article highlights a growing challenge in Europe: there are more roles being created in the tech sector than there are people to fill them. Competition for top talent is fiercer than ever. Our founder, Artem Sokolov, shared his insights on this issue — at Humanoid, we see this challenge not as a crisis, but as an opportunity. How we’re bringing top professionals on board: - Investing in talent. We already have a world-class team of 70+ engineers, IT developers, and managers, working on ML algorithms, advanced hardware, and cutting-edge robotics. - Breaking free from Big Tech constraints. We offer the chance to build groundbreaking products from scratch and have a direct impact on real-world innovations. - Prioritizing a culture-first approach. We bring together professionals with diverse backgrounds — robotics, software engineering, mechanical design — to shape the future. If you're passionate about AI, robotics, and making a real impact, join us! Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eSpvcxhs Thank you, Sifted and Kai Nicol-Schwarz, for the great piece!

Introducing HMND 01 — Our First Next-Generation Humanoid Robot! We’re excited to share a video with a first look at HMND 01, our advanced general-purpose humanoid robot. With cutting-edge AI, motion control, and modular hardware, it’s designed to adapt to real-world applications. Key specifications: - Height: 175 cm (5’9”) | Weight: 70 kg (154 lbs) - Walking Speed: 1.5 m/s (5.4 km/h) | Runtime: ~4 hours - Payload Capacity: 15 kg (33 lbs) | Degrees of freedom: 41 At Humanoid, we believe in a future where humans and machines work side by side, not in competition, but in harmony. “With a world-class team, Humanoid has ambitious plans for the year ahead — to develop and test our alpha prototype for two platforms, wheeled and bipedal. We're also in ongoing discussion with leading retail companies for potential pilot projects,” says Artem Sokolov, Humanoid’s founder. HMND 01 is designed to provide highly efficient services across various use cases and industries, starting with industrial automation. It will enhance operations in retail, manufacturing, logistics, fulfillment centers, and warehouses. Watch the video on YouTube and follow our channel: https://lnkd.in/esKe_b6a

Robots as colleagues: why the future of work is collaborative, not competitive Humanoid’s founder, Artem Sokolov, recently shared his insights on the transformative potential of human-robot collaboration in an article for TechRadar Pro. The conversation around robots in the workplace often focuses on a false dichotomy: humans versus machines. But the truth is, robots aren’t here to replace us — they’re here to work with us. At Humanoid, we believe the workplace of tomorrow will be one where humans and robots collaborate seamlessly, each bringing their unique strengths to the table. With robots taking over repetitive or hazardous tasks, humans will have the freedom to focus on creativity, strategic thinking, and problem-solving — the areas where we truly shine.

How is emerging tech reshaping the future of automation? Humanoid’s founder, Artem Sokolov, shared his insights on this topic in his latest article for RoboticsTomorrow.com. The U.S. manufacturing sector faces critical challenges: by 2033, it will require 3.8 million new employees, with 1.9 million positions potentially remaining unfilled. While robotic systems offer clear advantages, their adoption has been slow due to barriers like infrastructure changes, specialized expertise, and high investments. This is where humanoid robots can revolutionize the industry. By making automation accessible, affordable, and adaptable, Humanoid is helping companies unlock new levels of productivity and competitiveness. Learn more ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eu32xZDC
