World’s first flying humanoid robot with jet engines debuts in Italy


Italy's iRonCub3 becomes the world’s first jet-powered humanoid robot to fly, lifting off 50 cm with full stability and AI-driven controls.

“This research is radically different from traditional humanoid robotics and forced us to make a substantial leap forward with respect to the state of the art,” said Daniele Pucci, head of the Artificial and Mechanical Intelligence (AMI) Lab at IIT. “Our models include neural networks trained on simulated and experimental data and are integrated into the robot’s control architecture to guarantee stable flight,” said Antonello Paolino, first author of the paper. With a deep love for all things tech and science, he has spent years decoding the latest innovations and exploring how they shape industries, lifestyles, and the future of humanity.
