1X’s Tendon‑Driven Hands Give Humanoid Robots Human‑Level Dexterity
1X unveiled its Neo humanoid’s new tendon‑driven hands, packing 25 backdrivable joints that sense pressure and shear. The force‑transparent design lets the robot feel objects and adjust grip in real time, opening up tasks from pouring tea to handling fragile items. This hardware leap removes the long‑standing dexterity ceiling for humanoid platforms.
