HD Hyundai Robotics plans to transfer AI capabilities developed for its in-house humanoid prototype—including perception, manipulation, force/tactile control, and task planning—into its existing industrial robots and cobots, with CTO Ahn Sung-hwan outlining a broader shared platform spanning industrial, collaborative, mobile, and humanoid robots. The company also invested ₩13 billion in AIDIN Robotics to co-develop a five-finger hand for heavy industry and continues collaborating with Persona AI on shipyard welding humanoids.
Samsung Medical Center demonstrated a surgical system where a human surgeon worked alongside two humanoid robots that handed instruments, held endoscopes, and retracted tissue on command, with AI trained on action-triplet data predicting the surgeon's next move. The project, part of Korea's ARPA-H program, involves a consortium called ORchestra receiving 13.84 billion won ($10 million) over five years, targeting a first clinical trial in 2029.
HD Hyundai Robotics invested 13 billion won ($9.7 million) to acquire a stake in AIDIN ROBOTICS, a company specializing in force and tactile sensors for robots. The companies plan to jointly develop humanoid robotic solutions including a five-finger robotic hand for shipbuilding and heavy-industry applications, starting with automating surface-treatment processes like polishing and grinding.
