Galbot’s new system helps humanoid robots move naturally during conversations

SMRTR summary

Galbot has unveiled RoboGesture, a system that helps humanoid robots gesture naturally during conversations by syncing movements with speech in real time. It captures tone, rhythm, and emphasis from spoken audio rather than just text, giving robots a wider, more expressive range of motion. A built-in safety filter also reduced harmful self-collisions by over 97% during testing on a Unitree G1 humanoid robot.
