1X will test humanoid robots in ‘a few hundred’ homes in 2025


Norwegian robotics startup 1X plans to start testing its humanoid robot, Neo Gamma, in 'a few hundred to a few thousand' homes this year.

To make in-home tests possible, Børnich says 1X is “bootstrapping the process” by relying on teleoperators — humans in remote locations that can view Neo Gamma’s cameras and sensors in real time, and take control of its limbs. Early adopters will help create a large, valuable dataset that 1X can use to train in-house AI models and upgrade Neo Gamma’s capabilities. During a demo at GTC, 1X showcased Neo Gamma’s ability to do some basic tasks in a living room setting — partially powered by a human operator.
