🚨🤖 The MERPHI robot posters have become one of the most honest and revealing maps of the global robotics industry. They show which companies are actually making progress, which form factors are stalling and where the real whitespace sits across humanoids, quadrupeds, cobots and industrial robots. ‼️In this @overthehorizon discussion, Mehrdad Farimi - CTO of MERPHI, Sweden's leading robotics design consultancy - takes scott walter, Gustav Andersso and me through the full set of MERPHI posters and explains what they reveal about the true shape of the robotics market. ‼️Mehrdad breaks down the patterns that emerge when you study these posters over time. From sudden explosions in humanoid startups to the plateau of quadrupeds and the quiet stagnation of cobots, this is the clearest industry X-ray you will find anywhere. ‼️We explore why companies disappear from the posters, why some categories are saturated, why others are under-explored and what these shifts tell us about the next decade of robotics. If you want to understand the real landscape, not the marketing hype, this conversation is essential. #Robotics #HumanoidRobots #AI #Automation #Merphi #RoboticsIndustry #Quadrupeds #Cobots #Engineering #TechAnalysis #OverTheHorizon #MehrdadFarimi #ScottWalter #GustavAndersson

🚨 The @ManusMeta glove is one of the most impressive tools in modern robotics. It is soft, lightweight and captures detailed hand and finger motion without the bulk of an exoskeleton. On the surface, it looks like the perfect device for training dexterous robot hands. But there is a deeper problem. A problem that the robotics community rarely discusses openly. ‼️In this @overthehorizon breakdown, Scott Walter, Gustav Andersson and Mehrdad Farimi unpack what the Manus glove gets right, what it still gets wrong and why teleoperation may never scale to the level required for true robotic dexterity. ‼️We look at sensor accuracy, inferred hand models, haptic feedback, data sparsity, motion capture limits and why video-based training may still be the only path to natural manipulation. This is a discussion about the gap between impressive demos and the hard reality of training robot hands that can operate in the real world. 👇🏽 Join the discussion in the comments. #Robotics #ManusGlove #AI #RobotHands #HumanoidRobots #DexterousManipulation #Teleoperation #OverTheHorizon #ScottWalter #GustavAndersson #MehrdadFarimi

In Canada, artificial muscles lift 2,000x their own weight. In Georgia, a robotic eye focuses without any power source. In China, humanoid robots now cost less than your smartphone. This isn't science fiction. This is happening this month. 🤖 What You'll Discover: The artificial muscle breakthrough that's 9x stronger than previous materials (and 3x stronger than mammalian muscle) A self-powered robotic eye that runs on nothing but ambient light — and can see details humans can't Why China's $99 humanoid robots are more significant than their price tag suggests What Cathie Wood sees that most investors are missing about the "biggest of all" AI opportunities The real-world robots already operational (not prototypes — actual products shipping now) Why every expert timeline keeps getting shorter — and what that means for you Why This Matters: We're witnessing the simultaneous breakthrough of materials science, AI, and manufacturing technology. Each advancement alone would be significant. All three happening at once creates a convergence that even experts didn't predict. The robots aren't coming. They're here. They have superpowers.

🚨🤖 New videos of Tesla Optimus have been posted online. One shows the humanoid robot running. The other shows its latest hand design. At first glance, both clips appear to show major progress. But a deeper technical analysis tells a more complicated story. In this @overthehorizon episode, Scott Walter, Gustav Andersson and Mehrdad Farimi break down what is really happening in the footage. From gait mechanics and estimated running speed to the surprising flaws in the foot and hand design, this discussion reveals what Tesla has solved and what the company still needs to fix before Optimus can work in real factories and homes. We analyse the flight phase, toe-off behaviour, actuator layout, thumb anatomy, DOF constraints and why Tesla still has not shown Optimus walking and executing dexterous hand movements at the same time. These insights matter because they tell us how close Tesla is to delivering a practical general purpose humanoid. 🚨 Watch and join the discussion in the comments below 👇🏽 #Tesla #Optimus #TeslaOptimus #HumanoidRobots #AI #Robotics #ScottWalter #GustavAndersson #MehrdadFarimi #OverTheHorizon
