1,000,000+ engineering hours, 250 people, 3 continents. Cuby built the mobile micro-factory, where robots will build homes. Will this be the beginning of the end for new home build horror stories across America? I certainly hope so. Cuby is stating that they will build quality homes, of any type, faster and cheaper than most of the industry through industrialization. And this is how they will do it. They invented a new type of manufacturing, Mobile Micro-Factories, small, modular, local factories that make and prepare every part of a home, then deliver it in stages, last-mile, to the site ready to assemble with non-specialized labor. Sounds good to me! The sad reality is that many home builder's are putting unvetted workers to work, and as a result, the quality has been diminishing. Your 400K+ investment should have close to 0 issues when moving in. It's time builders started working on bringing those 2 star ratings back up to 5. 5 stars do exist, it's not impossible. If robotics and mobile micro-factories is what it takes, then let's make it happen. Follow Peter Kappes & Bots n' Beans for daily robotics, humanoids, & tech.

Cables snap. Direct drive lacks grip. Hangzhou Xynova chose both. The new Flex 2 Hybrid-Drive Dexterous Hand combines cable and direct drive systems, adds tactile perception, and moves the camera from the palm to the wrist joint.

This little robot never stops changing configurations. This is the DSTAR robot. Scientists at Ben‑Gurion University built it to switch between driving and crawling on command. It can adjust its wheels and balance to climb obstacles and move over rough ground. It can roll sideways or use a unique turtle gait to crawl across different surfaces.

One EV rolls out every 60 seconds inside this Hefei factory. Not only that, but it spans 136 football fields. Robots, cloud systems, and AI inspection run stamping, bodywork, and final assembly under one roof. The factory completes 1,000 quality checks in just three minutes, and third parties point to this plant as a benchmark for smart EV production. Now that's a factory.
