Global Semi-Humanoid Robot Landscape: Open-Source Research of 206 Companies
neurosp1ke · x · 2026-08-02
The author updated the 2026 semi-humanoid robot market research, now tracking 206 companies (plus 11 borderline cases), with newly updated PDFs and a GitHub repository.
This project aims to analyze the competitive landscape of semi-humanoid robots globally. These robots feature a human-like upper body (head, torso, and two arms) but rely on wheeled, tracked, lift-column, or ball bases instead of legs. Notable examples include SoftBank Pepper, AgiBot A2-W, and 1X EVE. The repository contains detailed company profiles, machine-readable robot spec sheets (JSON), and image assets.
