    Clone Robotics unveils $20K synthetic human roadmap

    Clone Robotics just revealed an ambitious roadmap to build sub-$20K musculoskeletal androids powered by fluid-driven "Myofiber" muscles. The startup aims for scalpel-wielding robot torsos by late 2026, human-like walking by 2027, and hotel robot butlers by 2028. Why it matters: If Clone can actually scale artificial muscles cheaply, it could undercut traditional electric humanoids, though its timeline still lags behind factory-deployed rivals.

    Clone unveils a water-powered musculoskeletal android

    Clone Robotics just introduced Protoclone, billed as the world's first bipedal musculoskeletal android. Powered entirely by water and electricity, it replaces rigid electric motors with proprietary artificial muscles called Myofibers that contract faster than human tissue. It is a wildly biomimetic step toward soft-bodied, sci-fi-style humanoids.
