The firm claims about sixty advanced humanoid prototypes were developed and tested during that period.<\/p>\n<p>It has assembled roughly 70 engineers and AI scientists from IIT into its core technical team. That team is said to bring a combined experience of more than 600 years in physical robotics and related AI work.
