CyberRobooo · x · 2026-09-08
Haier unveiled its home-use humanoid robot HIVA at AWE 2026, positioned as the final piece of its unmanned household chore ecosystem—handling tasks like tidying up, laundry, and folding clothes. The author sees physical AI for the home as a path for coming years: people want an agent that can grab a drink from the fridge and hand it over while they watch TV. A notable move by a traditional appliance giant into home embodied AI.
