Humanoid robots expose the hardest version of the compute-energy problem. High-performance AI for perception, planning and control must be balanced within strict power, thermal & form-factor limits, critically limiting humanoid scaling. This session explores the emerging approaches across humanoid hardware, model efficiency & compute, that will unlock autonomous, commercially-viable humanoids.
