Welcome to The Uncanny Squad

We are a community for anyone curious about humanoid robots — the hardware, the software, and the hard questions that come with letting machines into our lives. We’re not making academic papers or glossy press releases. We’re making space for honest, readable conversations.

Who this is for

If you’ve watched a humanoid video and felt equal parts fascinated and unsettled, you belong here. You don’t need to know ROS or degrees of freedom to be part of the conversation. Just bring your curiosity, skepticism, and a healthy instinct for asking “wait, what?”.

What you’ll find here

We want honest takes: the promising stuff, the brittle stuff, and the parts everyone keeps glossing over.

Company news

Actual meaning, not clickbait. We track the humanoid world so you don’t have to.

Humanoid profiles

The machines people talk about — and the ones you probably should know.

Thought pieces

Opinionated, sharp, and sometimes ranty dives straight into the uncanny valley.

Real-world analysis

What’s working, what’s failing, and what’s quietly breaking people’s assumptions.
