**Welcome back, Superhuman. **If you’re planning a holiday to Japan, you’re in for a surprise. A gripping labor shortage has forced the country to recruit an unlikely helper at one of its busiest airports. Meanwhile, a Chinese startup has unveiled a quadruped robot with the muscle to haul more than a ton.

#### **WHAT’S NEXT**

## **The most important news and breakthroughs in robotics this week**

View image: (https://media.beehiiv.com/cdn-cgi/image/fit=scale-down,format=auto,onerror=redirect,quality=80/uploads/asset/file/b37959d5-4944-4dfb-b9c0-a7f25ee1fcf5/Group_1000005215__1_.jpg?t=1777675124)

**1. Japan Airlines is putting humanoid robots to work at Haneda Airport: **With tourism at record highs and its workforce shrinking fast, Japan Airlines is turning to humanoid robots to keep one of its busiest airports running. A [two-year trial](https://www.cnbc.com/2026/05/01/japan-airlines-humanoid-robots-haneda-labor-shortage.html) launching this month will test robots on baggage handling and cabin cleaning. With Japan's working-age population on track to decline by nearly a third by 2060, analysts expect the government to push humanoids as an alternative. See the robots in action [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNnSOO11KFU). 

**2. SoftBank is building a robotics company to automate data center construction: **As demand for AI infrastructure explodes, SoftBank is launching Roze AI, a robotics venture that deploys autonomous robots to build server farms more efficiently. The Japanese conglomerate is already plotting an IPO at a target valuation of $100B, a figure even some SoftBank insiders are [skeptical](https://www.ft.com/content/55c7d99c-7e68-453c-b784-33d6b9838e16?syn-25a6b1a6=1) about. It's a bold bet, but not an isolated one: Jeff Bezos is pursuing a similar vision through his industrial AI startup, Project Prometheus.

**3. The US is trying to cut China out of robotics, but it’s easier said than done: **A new bipartisan bill aims to ban US government use of Chinese ground robots, part of a sweeping push to cut sensitive tech ties with Beijing. But there’s a [problem](https://spectrum.ieee.org/chinese-robots-us-ban): US firms still rely heavily on Chinese-made components, meaning a ban that moves further down the supply chain could hurt the very firms it's meant to help. Analysts warn the US still lacks a coherent strategy for navigating the broader tech competition with China.

#### **ROBOTS IN ACTION**

🐴 **Giddy Up: **Dax Robotics has unveiled the Qiji T1000, a quadruped robot that can haul up to 1,000 kg. It’s [designed](https://x.com/XRoboHub/status/2049373299310993869?s=20) for high-stakes field work: emergency rescue, high-altitude supply runs, construction sites, and industrial logistics across snow, ice, and broken ground. It's engineered for the unglamorous, high-stakes work that's kept pack animals relevant for centuries. See it in action [here](https://x.com/XRoboHub/status/2049373299310993869?s=20). 

🧹 **Operation Cleanup:** German engineers are [developing](https://interestingengineering.com/ai-robotics/robotic-arms-nuclear-waste-salt-mine-germany) tele-operated robotic arms to retrieve 126,000 radioactive waste barrels from the Asse II salt mine, a site so degraded by moisture and corrosion that human workers can't safely operate inside. If successful, the project could potentially become a blueprint for cleaning up similar Cold War-era nuclear sites in the US and beyond.

🪖 **Built to Fight: **While many robotics companies are chasing the home assistant market, Foundation is building robots for war. The startup recently piloted its Phantom humanoid in Ukraine and has now landed a $24M Pentagon contract. Co-founder and Marine vet Mike LeBlanc argues there's a [moral case](https://www.businessinsider.com/foundation-humanoid-robot-soldier-ukraine-testing-2026-4) for putting machines on the front lines instead of people, though he admits full combat capability is still five to ten years out.

* **China **has [reportedly](https://cnevpost.com/2026/04/29/china-suspends-new-robotaxi-permits-after-baidu-outage) frozen new robotaxi permits after a Baidu Apollo Go outage in Wuhan raised fresh alarms over autonomous driving safety.

* **Unitree **just [dropped](https://interestingengineering.com/ai-robotics/china-unitree-humanoid-robot) a $4,290 humanoid robot, dramatically lowering the price of entry into a market once reserved for six-figure research robots.

* **REK **is set to [open](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/cix_we-just-signed-a-lease-for-the-first-humanoid-ugcPost-7455346094475112448-wK7z) America’s first “humanoid store” in San Francisco, where customers can buy, service, and even test-drive its VR-controlled fighting robots.

**Your favorite movie characters are starting to come to life. **

Hasbro is launching Ultimate Grogu, a $600 animatronic Star Wars collectible packed with four motors and 14 sensors that let it toddle, coo, raise its arms, and react to touch. It's positioned as a high-end collectible rather than a toy, with 250 animations and accessories that Grogu can interact with.
