Four pillars of the RobotWale library - from humanoids to the AI stack underneath.
Tesla Optimus, Figure 02, Unitree H1, Apptronik Apollo and more.
Explore →VLA models, imitation learning and the robotics foundation models.
Explore →Robot vacuums, cooking bots and the robots already living in Indian homes.
Explore →DJI Agras, Garuda Aerospace, ideaForge and India's drone wave.
Explore →Fresh from the library.

A grounded analysis of imitation learning pipelines in humanoid robotics, covering teleoperation hardware, demonstration collection, behavior cloning algorithms, and evidence-graded deployment status across global manufacturers and India.

A grounded assessment of the VLA paradigm, examining RT-2, Octo, and OpenVLA against hardware deployment realities, pilot integrations, and India market availability.

A grounded assessment of DRDO’s humanoid and combat robotics programmes, graded by deployment status, hardware evidence, and current availability for Indian defence and civil sectors.

A grounded assessment of humanoid and bipedal robot research across IIT Madras, IIT Bombay, IISc Bangalore, and allied Indian institutions. Focuses on shipped prototypes, control architectures, funding mechanisms, and realistic pathways to commercial availability.

A grounded review of Honda’s ASIMO program, tracing its actuation, control, and sensor fusion breakthroughs, its real-world pilot deployments, and how its engineering DNA shapes today’s shipping humanoid hardware.

An evidence-based assessment of Boston Dynamics’ institutional history, Atlas development timeline, Spot commercialization, and India market status. Claims are graded by shipped hardware, pilot deployments, and public announcements, with landed cost estimates and availability data for the Indian market.

A grounded review of warranty terms, spare parts logistics, and support models for early humanoid robot adopters, with specific focus on India availability, landed cost estimates, and verifiable manufacturer policies.

A technical breakdown of customs classification, duty structures, documentation workflows, compliance requirements, and landed cost estimation for importing humanoid robots into India.

A factual breakdown of which humanoid manufacturers are accepting pre-orders, realistic lead times, manufacturing constraints, and approximate landed costs in India. Claims are graded by shipped hardware, pilot deployments, and official announcements.
Humanoid launches, deployments, funding and India-focused coverage - in one place.






Humanoid robotics is one of the most exciting fields in tech - and also one of the noisiest. We cover what is shipping, what it costs, and how it actually behaves in the real world. Especially in India.
