The author shares insights from operating humanoid robots at @dollhouserobots, noting that their robots interact with humans without a human handler standing nearby.
They point out that humanoid robots in Western real-world settings typically fall into two categories: demo units closely watched by engineers, or content props with a clear operator or filmer nearby. By contrast, their approach mirrors real-world deployment, allowing them to observe how humans treat robots when they think "no one is watching."
