Designing for the FutureAs humanoid robots continue to push the boundaries of motion, agility and real-world application, the demands on joint design will only grow. To meet these challenges, engineers must move toward customized, integrated bearing systems that are designed not just to fit but to perform. In short, the future of humanoid robotics depends not just on better joints, but smarter, more cohesive joint systems.
