- 1X announces Bill Nash as new CFO, bringing financial leadership experience from ambitious tech companies.
- Breakthrough 25 Degree of Freedom (DOF) tendon-driven hands for NEO humanoid platform achieve near human-level dexterity, strength, safety, and reliability.
- These hands are designed to remove hardware limitations, making data the only barrier to robot capabilities.
- NEO can perform tasks like assembling LEGOs, using tools, grasping delicate objects, and communicating via sign language.
- The hands feature force transparency, backdrivability, and high-resolution tactile sensing for real-time feedback.
- They are IP68 waterproof, food-safe, and built for durability with millions of test cycles under high loads.
- Deep vertical integration of motors, sensors, and tendon systems enables rapid iteration and performance.
- Production capacity aims for 10,000 hands this year, scalable to support large-scale data collection for AGI development.
