Crest and ROBROS will test a hot-swappable battery system for the IGRIS-C humanoid robot in a government-backed project to improve continuous operation and localization of key components, aiming for commercialization by 2029.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Robotics, Drones & UAV.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You must prepare for near-zero downtime robots as hot-swappable batteries shift how industrial humanoids operate daily. Factories and smart building automation now have a clear tech upgrade path that bypasses current battery swapping delays.
