Humanoids and robots are moving from science fiction to reality, and vision is key to that evolution. Just as our visual cortex allows humans to perceive and adapt, machine vision gives robots the ability to understand, navigate, and interact with the world around them. This session explores how advances in depth sensing, AI compute, and cloud-scale learning are giving humanoids and robots sight, safety, and awareness to operate naturally among us—and what that means for the future of human-robot interaction.
