Meta is forming a new team within its Reality Labs division to develop humanoid robots that assist with tasks, such as household chores. This initiative is led by Marc Whitten, former CEO of Cruise and experienced in the tech industry. Rather than creating Meta-branded robots, the aim is to build a foundational hardware framework for the robotics market, similar to Google's Android. Meta has begun discussions with companies like Unitree Robotics to collaborate on initial prototypes, marking a significant step into the robotics sector.
